Manifold headers have capacities of 8, 16 or 20 tubes (in our case, 16 tubes). The headers allow for a modular design as the heat transfer liquid flowing through the manifold to the solar tank does not flow through the collector tubes. The operation of the system will therefore not be interrupted even if one of the collector tubes is damaged.
Manifold Header
The manifold header pipe is mounted within the manifold casing and is made of F28 mm, 1 mm thick copper pipe. The condenser section of heat pipe is tightly inserted in the heat pipe port ensuring a dry connection between heat pipe and heat transfer fluid.
The collector manifold casing and the end cap are made of silver aluminium profile or brown aluminum plate and insulated with 50 mm thick, FC free polyurethane. The copper inlet and outlet pipe nipples come standard in OD 22 mm, making plumbing connections quick and easy using readily available metric compression fittings.Technical specifications
