SunEarth SolaRay E 80-Gallon Hot Water Station

SKU: 100004-9-80 | Indirect Glycol Solar Water Heating

The SunEarth SolaRay E is a factory-assembled hot water station for indirect solar domestic water heating. Its 80-gallon glass-lined storage tank and copper double-wall heat exchanger transfer collected solar energy to potable water through a separate glycol circuit.

Designed for use with a properly configured SunEarth SolaRay AC indirect system, this pre-engineered station combines storage, circulation, controls and monitoring components. Its three-speed cast-iron pump and differential temperature controller help manage heat transfer between the collector circuit and tank.

Glycol-based freeze protection depends on correct fluid selection, installation and maintenance. Collector selection, piping and final system configuration should follow SunEarthโ€™s installation requirements.
