Solar Pump

A solar pump is an eco-friendly and cost-effective solution that consists of key components like a solar panel, water pump, electric motor, and controller. It operates using solar energy converted into electricity through photovoltaic panels—similar to solar rooftop systems. The generated electricity powers the motor, which drives the pump through a rotating shaft, drawing water from underground sources and delivering it to fields or storage systems.

Solar water pumps are particularly beneficial for agricultural and irrigation purposes, especially in remote areas with limited or unreliable power supply. These systems are known for their high efficiency and low maintenance, requiring only regular cleaning of the solar panels to maintain optimal performance. Installation is hassle-free, and with a typical lifespan of up to 20 years, solar pumps offer a sustainable and long-term solution for water management in farming and off-grid locations.

When compared to AC submersible motors, there is a significant boost in efficiency and a size reduction. Lowest energy expenses owing to excellent efficiency and power factor even at half load. Because of the increased water production for a given number of solar panels, this is an excellent value for money approach for solar pumping applications.

When compared to pumps installed with ordinary cast iron pumps, solar pumps fitted with AC submersible motors will start discharging water earlier in the day and operate for longer hours, resulting in much higher water delivery during the day. High-efficiency AC submersible motors are constructed of elevated stainless steel.

Solar pumps with DC submersible motors start delivering water earlier in the day and work for longer hours than pumps with AC motors, resulting in much higher water delivery during the day.

Motors operate at synchronous speeds and are approximately 15% more efficient than identical AC Induction Motors, resulting in significant, measurable gains in solar pumping systems. High-quality stainless steel is used to manufacture high-efficiency DC submersible motors.
