Description of product


The Grant GSD1 and GSD2 Differential Solar Controllers automatically manage the operation of the Solar Thermal System. Monitoring the temperature in both collector and cylinder, they operate the circulating pump only when the difference in temperature will provide efficient
heating of the hot water. They will also stop the circulating pump if the temperature in the collector exceeds the maximum set or, if the cylinder has reached the required temperature.


The Grant GSD1 controller is used where the collectors are located on the same side of a roof - such as with a South facing installation, whereas the Grant GSD2 is used where the collectors are located on either side of
a roof - such as with an East/West facing installation.


Both solar controllers monitor and display the amount of solar power produced by the system on a daily and cumulative basis. Amongst other features the controllers can display the collector and cylinder
temperatures and they also incorporate a pump kick facility which activates the pump for a short period each day to prevent the possibility of seizure if not operated for more than 24 hours.
