Hi
This is the answer I got from my colleague in Solaris Energy.

"the factory setting is generally 1.5-2.5 bar depending on manufacturer with a max operating pressure of 10 bar but of course the safety valve on the pumping station will blow before then.
Zilmet is 2.5 bar."


Regards,
Tim

Great weather for solar these last few weeks. My system is set at 4 bar, I assume the pressure vessel operates at the same pressure ??
