travels to the collectors. From here the loop goes back to the storage tank thru a 2-1/8 in. pipe. This down pipe terminates above the highest water level in the storage tank and must have all horizontal runs of tubing pitched downward a minimum of 1/4-in ./foot.

If it is necessary, the aquastats may be removed from the control box and mounted close to the storage tank. If this approach is taken, 14 gauge wire should be used to connect the aquastat to the appropriate wires out of the control box. Thermistor Sensor Mounting — Mount sensors so that good therma...

• The collector circuit pump is operated thru a relay (Rh) which is activated by the differential controller. The differential controller monitors the difference in thermistor temperatures (AT = Tc — Ts). When this AT reaches 20 F, Rg is energized, and the collector pump runs (also the heat exchange...
