1. The solar photovoltaic (PV) panels absorb the sun’s energy and convert it into direct current (DC)
power.

2. The DC current from the PV panels is controlled with an MPP-tracker, for maximum power
output to the DC heating element located in the tank. NO GRID CONNECTION is required.

3. The solar DC heating element can heat the tank water to a maximum of 85°C at which point it
switches off. Once the temperature drops, the solar element will re-activate.

4. On occasions when the solar energy gain is insufficient to heat the water to its minimum
temperature of 55°C, an AC boost heating element, either powered by grid and/or battery
storage, simultaneously heats the tank water to 65°C. Alternatively a gas backup is available.
(Note: System model numbers ending in E indicate AC electric boost configuration, System
model numbers ending in A indicate gas boost configuration)

5. Mains pressure fresh cold potable water runs through the stainless steel heat exchange coil
inside the tank separated from the heated thermal storage water. The potable water absorbs
energy via the coil from the heated storage water which heats the usable water to its final
temperature.

6. To prevent scalding, a high performance thermostatic mixing valve, or tempering valve ensures
9 that water for your personal use is delivered at the required temperature. (To be supplied by
installing plumber in accordance with AS/NZS 3500.4)

About Your System
The ESW ROSC20 Solar PV Water Heating System combines the ENERMAX SMARTcube tank with the
myPV SC20 Solar Photovoltaic electric water heater with AC boost or alternative boost solution such
as an instantaneous water heater. The pressure-less storage water tank serves as a heat storage
medium. Domestic (potable water) flows through a spiral corrosion resistant Stainless Steel heat
exchanger coil which is completely immersed in the storage tank water. Cold water which flows in
through the coil when water is drawn off is heated by the storage tank water.

Electric Boosting
Water stored in the storage tank is heated automatically by an electric booster heating unit (or
alternate boost source such as a gas booster). The booster heats the water during very cloudy or
rainy weather, during the winter months, or during periods of unusually high demand. The booster
heating elements are controlled by an electric thermostat. The thermostat and heating elements are
mounted into the storage tank inside the IP54 water resistant enclosure. The boost water
temperature is automatically controlled by the thermostat setting when the booster heating unit is
energized.
The AC boost thermostat is not adjustable. It has a minimum temperature setting of 55ºC and a
maximum temperature setting of 65ºC. Automatic safety controls are fitted to the water heater to
provide safe and efficient operation.

11 Gas Boosting
Where gas boosting is used, the AC electric element of the tank is not connected. The water from the
tank is pumped through the booster, if the sensor inside the gas booster detects the water
temperature is lower than the preset temperature of the booster, the booster will turn on and heat
the water.

Water Temperature
For domestic use, the system outlet temperature is controlled by a high performance tempering
valve or high performance thermostatic mixing valve to be supplied and installed by your installing
plumber in accordance with AS/NZS 3400.4 to deliver 50°C. During periods of low solar energy gain,
the water temperature is boosted by the thermostatically controlled electric booster heating
element or the gas booster for gas boosted systems. An alternative boost heat source can also be
used.
The water heater features a non-adjustable thermostat which is located inside the tank (The tank
thermostat is factory set to a maximum tank temperature of 85°C for Solar and 65°C for Boost). Tank
temperatures above 55°C are required to protect your installation from the potential of Legionella.
