The invention relates to an improved aqueous solar energy collector system which includes a heat exchange panel wherein a getter having a surface layer in contact with the aqueous fluid which is characterized by a high affinity for corrosive metal ions in the aqueous fluid is provided upstream of the heat exchangers to thereby remove said corrosive ions from the aqueous fluid before it is introduced into the heat exchanger.

In a solar energy collector system including at least one heavy metal element, at least one heat exchange panel having passage surfaces of aluminum or aluminum alloy, and a heat exchange medium, the improvement which comprises: getter panel means having at least one passageway for providing turbulent passage of said heat exchange medium, said getter panel being located upstream and in close proximity with said heat exchange panel, and said passageway having a surface layer of material having a high affinity for heavy ions, whereby heavy metal ions are removed from said heat exchange medium prior to contact of said ions with said heat exchange panel.
