Apricus etc, Apricus ETC Solar Collector Installation and Operation Manual - International Edition 5.3. Flow Rate & Temperature Rise a) Recommended flow for ETC collectors is 0.07 L/tube/min. (ie. ETC-30 = 2 L/min). This will achieve up to 14 o C temperature rise in peak sunlight, and avoid excessive stop-starting during periods of lower solar insolation. b) The following table shows the temperature rise for each collector model at peak output (Watts) and various flow rates. c) Use a flow meter/setter to confirm the flow rate through the system. 5.4. Pressure Drop Curve a) Pressure drop through an ETC-30 tube collector with cold water for �
Apricus etc, Apricus ETC Solar Collector Installation and Operation Manual - International Edition c) In any system that may be exposed to temperature close to freezing, insulation of at least 20mm thickness must be used on all exposed outdoor piping. Insulation must be run right up to the end plates of the collector manifold and sealed with silicone sealant to prevent water ingress. d) Evacuated tubes are not susceptible to damage in cold weather, and Apricus heat pipes are protected against damage that could result from the freezing of the water inside. e) Apricus does not warrant the solar collector against freeze related damage. 3.14.
