3 Introducing your appliance

3.1

appliance description

The Flurocyl

2

solar cylinder is available in three sizes: 200, 250

and 300 litres. The containers are made from stainless steel with

EPS with additional infared absorbing insulation. The cylinder

works with the pressure of the water supply line and does not

need a cold water tank for its supply. To enable the cylinder to

work as well as possible, a cold water supply with an appropriate

pressure and flow rate is required.

3.1.1

safety devices

The solar cylinder has been provided with all safety and control

devices for operation of the unvented domestic hot water supply:

- Temperature/pressure relief valve (90 °C, 7 bar)

- Pressure limiting valve (3.5 bar) with line strainer

- Expansion relief valve (one-way valve, 6.0 bar)

- Solar pump safety thermostat, set to 80 °C, connected with

the solar pump in order to isolate this heat source if there is a

malfunction in the solar control.

- Safety thermostat for electric immersion heater (85 °C).

- Solar cylinder safety thermostat, set to 80 °C, to be connected

to the 2-port motorised valve in order to isolate the primary

heat source if a domestic water supply thermostat malfunction

occurs.

3.1.2

Hot water temperature regulation

You can set the hot water temperature and reheating times in the

upper half of the cylinder on the controller.

One of the following controllers may be used depending on the

design of your system:

- Glow-worm Fluropro

- Climapro

2

in conjunction with a timer

Refer to the operating manual for the installed controller or timer.

3.1.3

electric immersion heater

The cylinder is equipped with an additional electric immersion

heater (3) with a heating output of 3 kW. The electric immersion

heater is designed for use in unvented cylinders and has a

thermostat with a temperature controller (2) and a safety

thermostat (TCO) with a reset button (1).
