The  Montage of Solar Energy Systems

1- Collector's slope must be determined at first and system stand must be designed  according to this. Collector's slope is equal to region latitude for the systems can be used in four seasons.  For Turkiye this value is varried between  36° ile 42°. For summer usage this slope mustn't be more than -15° , For winter usage this value musn't be more than +15° .

Forexample when we take Antalya's latitude  36° ;for systems running  4 seasons collectors must be placed 36° with horizontal, for systems running only  in summer collectors must be placed on 21° with horizontal and for systems running only winter collectors must be mounted  51° with horizontal.

2-Collectors must be turned to the south as far as possible. When it is turned to east or west direction with 15°, amount of hot water can be produced doesn't change importantly.For hot water is  usually used in evening and at night, it is advised that collectors are placed from south to west.

3- System's air must be taken.

4- Pulling valve must be put the entrance of cold water.

5- When collectors connect each others from collector to collector transitive serial connection as shown at the side picture, Using more than 3 collectors is not true. the collector which is connected extra is the least useful for producing hot water.

6-When  connectors are connected to each others,distribution pipe diameter must be suitable. For this type connections,there is no number limit for collectors' connections side by side.

7- When a lot of collectors are placed back by back, shadow distances must be left for overshadow to each others.This distance is due to collectors length and collector's slope with horizontal.

8- At the natural repetition system the diffrence between the depot and collectors, that will be mounted, must be 15-25 cm.

9-In the sytems with esanjor system stand must be balanced when depots are placed.

10- 3/4 pipes must be used at the closed period part of the system.

11- Connection pipes must be isolated.
