Solar water pump systems operate on direct current the shurflo 9300 solar water pump operates at 24v the grundfos sqflex solar water pump for wells operate as high as 300vdc.
Solar water pumping system.
These single or multi panel systems include a rebuild able brushless dc solar water pump 100 feet of pump wire built in to the pump solar panel s back of panel aluminum mounts for top of pole applications wire harnesses for easy plug and play and a nylon pre filter kit.
The photovoltaic array converts the solar energy into electricity which is used for running the motor pump set.
The majority of the pumps are fitted with a 2 3 7 kw motor that receives energy from a 4 8 kw p pv array.
The output of the solar power system varies throughout the day and with changes in weather conditions.
By definition an efficient solar powered water pumping system is one that receives plenty of sunlight and is installed specifically to the needs of the farm.
Photovoltaic systems used in solar power generating used are scalable with capacity ranging from a few watts for applications such as automated farm gates or timers to hundreds of kilowatts for the homestead and farm sheds.
The solar water pumps are used for extracting water from ponds rivers bore wells or other sources of water.
The main use of solar pumps in irrigation.
The pumping system draws water from the open well bore well stream pond canal etc.
The 3 7 kw systems can deliver about 124 000 liters of water day from a total of 50 meters setoff head and 70 meters dynamic head.
On a national level solar water pumping can help stabilize increase and diversify agricultural production which is the foundation of most african countries economies.
The system operates on power generated using solar pv photovoltaic system.
