Complete Collector PackageA complete collector comprises the following main components:

• Manifold (insulated box that contains the copper header pipe)• Standard mounting frame (suitable for flush mounting roof)• Evacuated tubes and heat pipes• Additional standard accessories (tube clips, connection fittings etc)

Depending on the installation requirements additional components may be required:

• Angled frame kits (raise installation angle of the collector)• Frame attachment components

Solar Collector Naming ConventionNaming Format: APSE - AAAA - BB - CCC

APSE AP collector with anodized aluminium silver colour & end port header pipes.AAAA COMP = complete collector including manifold, standard frame and evacuated tubes KIT = manifold and standard frame (no evacuated tubes)BB Material of the frame: SS = Stainless Steel, AL = AluminiumCCC Number of evacuated tubes: 10T, 20T, 22T or 30T

e.g. APSE-COMP-SS-30T = Complete 30 tube collector with stainless steel standard frame. APSE-KIT-AL-20T = 20 tube manifold and aluminium standard frame APSE-30T = 30 tube manifold only

How To OrderManifold and standard frame are ordered together as a “kit”, then pallets or boxes of evacuated tubes and heat pipes are ordered separately to make up the complete package. Your Apricus sales manager will help guide you.

Mounting Frame MaterialsThe mounting frame is available in either stainless steel (SS) or high tensile grade aluminium (AL).

• SS is the most cost effective choice, suitable for most climates and installation methods. • AL frame provides much greater strength for areas that have significant wind loading requirements. The

anodized finish also provides superior corrosion resistance in coastal applications. Both frames options have a similar overall design so are compatible with the range of mounting accessories offered by Apricus.

Mounting Frame Naming ConventionNaming Format: APFR - AAA - BB - CCC - DDD - EEE

BB Material of the frame: SS = Stainless Steel, AL = AluminiumCCC Frame Style: STD = Standard UF = U Foot RR = Roof Rail RF = Round Foot RT = Roof Track RS = Roof StrapDDD Angle of the frame: 10D, 30D, 45D or 30<60D (adjustable angle)EEE Number of evacuated tubes: 10T, 20T, 22T or 30Te.g. APFR-KIT-SS-UF-30D-20T = 20 tube stainless steel 30o angle frame with U feet attachment APFR-KIT-AL-RR-45D-30T = 30 tube aluminium 45o angle frame with roof rail attachment

Solar Pump Station

Product OverviewExpansion tanks are required in any closed loop hydronic system to accept the increased water volume when the water heats up. For solar hot water systems the expansion tank must be designed to withstand suitable temperatures. Apricus offers high quality expansion tanks in both a 99oC rated hot water model and 130oC rated solar model.

Hot Water Expansion Tank• High grade butyl diaphragm• Leak free o-ring sealed air valve cap• Two part polyurethane, epoxy primed paint finish• Comprehensive testing• 90oC max temperature• 6 bar max pressure• Pre-charge: 8-24L = 0.7 bar; 32 = 1 bar; 60-150L = 1.5 bar

Solar Expansion Tank (recommended)• High temperature butyl diaphragm• High expansion volume factor• Leak free o-ring sealed air valve cap• Patented stainless steel connection• Two part polyurethane, epoxy primed paint finish• 130oC max temperature• 10 bar max pressure• 1.9 bar pre-charge
