Proper Installation of Flat Plate Sensor for Solar Collectors

Ensure optimal performance of your flat plate solar collector with the correct sensor installation. Follow the guidelines for placing the sensor inside the collector, under the glass, for accurate temperature sensing. Avoid placing the sensor on a flat plate collector; it should not penetrate the collector or be used in drainback systems. For detailed placement instructions, including drilling and lubrication steps, please contact Rod Hyatt at (508) 542-9830 or via email at rod.hyatt@htproducts.com.

  1. Flat plate sensor location Installation options For more information: Rod Hyatt, (508) 542-9830 Rod.hyatt@htproducts.com ASKROD.com

  2. Placing the sensor on flat plate collectors

  3. Optimal sensor attachment Not advised! The sensor does not penetrate the collector. * Will not work on drainback systems. Yes! Sensor is placed inside the collector, under the glass

  4. Sensor placement instructions Step 1: With a 15/64” sharp drill bit, carefully drill alongside the hot-out connection and insert the solar control sensor for better protected temperature sensing.

  5. Above: The sensor tip inserted inside the panel, placed against the header Left: The sensor, as seen through the glass of the collector Above: The sensor is lubricated and slipped inside predrilled hole Drill sensor hole through grommet (illustrated on previous slide) 2. Sweat on plumbing connection 3. Lubricate drilled hole 4. Insert sensor for direct pipe contact

  6. All done — neatly and efficiently
