Installed by Strata Solar

First Data Point 10-05-2012


A commercial drainback system with 4 arrays of 5 collectors which directly heat a solar drain back tank. The drainback tank then indirectly heats the DHW through an external heat exchanger.

Site contains:

  • 20 SolarHot Equinox S-C-771D40 Flat Plate Collectors. SRCC#: 2010038C
  • Gross Area of Collectors - 788 sq. ft (73.2 sq. m)
  • Tilt Angle of collectors - 30 degrees
  • Solarhot Storage Tank with 1200 gallon capacity
  • RESOL Deltasol BX controller
  • Grundfos VFS 5 - 100L Flowmeter and Temperature Sensor
  • A Thermal-Grid DL2 to send the data to the servers
  • Grundfos RPS Pressure and Temperature Sensor
  • collector azimuth 225 degrees (south west)
  • Rated Power Output: 51.2 kW
  • Flat Plate
