DESCRIPTION

ECLIPSE COVER SYSTEM by PLEION is the first solar collector in the world presenting a smart revolutionary automatic covering
system able to control collector temperature and keep the highest level of efficiency of your Solar Thermal Plant 365 days a
year.

It’s easy to create a covering system, but rather hard to make a go-it-alone smart system allowing the best safety of all.

When designing ECLIPSE, our new solar collector, we have considered all the elements defining vacuum solar collector and we
targeted our energies towards creating something totally new, something completely different from what there was on the
market since then.

A brilliant idea: ECLIPSE does not resemble any other solar collector in the world.

ECLIPSE is optimised for top level performances. For the first time, a solar collector has been made to maximise thermal
efficiency.
Instead of using fans or other common solutions, in order to control over temperature, we have developed an innovative
covering system with rotating layers, controlled by a control unit with microprocessor.

Solar collector ECLIPSE is composed of the following elements:

A. n.1 vacuum solar collector X-AIR 14;
B. n.1 covering system ECLIPSE.

A. Please go directly to Solar Collector X-AIR 14 installation and user’s manual, for technical features,

installation modes and its functioning.

B. Covering system ECLIPSE:

• It is a solar collector X-AIR 14 tool;

• it can be fully replaced, by re-enabling collector X-AIR 14 technical features;

• it can also modify solar collector X-AIR 14 performances.

PLEASE NOTE: solar collector X-AIR 14 is certified Solar Keymark (license number 011-

7S2431). Covering system ECLIPSE is not subject to certification.

Solar collector ECLIPSE can be installed with a tilt angle between 10° and 60°, as opposed to the solar
collector X-AIR 14.

RUNNING INSTRUCTIONS

Solar collector ECLIPSE is supplied already assembled.

For commissioning, you just have to do these following operations:

1. FIXING OF PLASTIC CARTER.

protection carter to the solar collector X-AIR 14 frame by further using hammer head screws as

included equipment.

2. ELECTRIC MOTOR WIRING.

For installations in windy areas or exposed sites, fix the plastic

Connect the electric motor of ECLIPSE system to the control unit.

For the wiring modes to control unit, please go to the wiring diagram on page 8 of this manual and

the specific use and installation supplied with the control unit equipment.
