4.4 Draining
Remove the thermal actuator to drain the system (see section 3.4). The volumetric flow limiter must be open during the draining process
(see figure of lower shut-off valve in section 3.2: spindle position 2). The solar station should be drained at the lowest point of the system.
Collect the medium in a suitable collection vessel and dispose of in an environmentally sound manner.
Note:
• The system is usually pressurised!
• Risk of scalding
