SOLAR WATER PUMP
What is Solar Water Pump?
A solar water pump is an innovative technology water lifting system that is powered by solar energy. It is also known as Solar Pumping System, Solar Submersible Pump, and Solar Pump. This system typically consists of a solar panel, solar inverter, controller, and sometimes a solar battery. These pumps are more economical since they don’t need grid electricity and reduce carbon footprints too.
How Solar Pump Work?
The working of the solar pump starts with the solar panel. Solar panels are made up of a bunch of small silicon solar cells that absorb the sunlight and convert it into DC electricity, which powers the pump. The solar pump directly connects with the solar panel through an MPPT solar pump controller. So whenever sunlight hits the solar panel and you turn the pump on, it starts to lift the water.
In case you are using an AC water pump, then the generated electricity will go through the solar inverter. Therefore, you will have to install a solar inverter with your solar pump. The inverter will convert the DC electricity into AC electricity and then transferred it to the pump.
Why solar water pump
A solar – powered pump is a pump running on electricity generated by photovoltaic panels available from collected sunlight as apposed to grid electricity.
The Operation of solar powered pumps is more economical mainly due to the lower operation & maintenance costs & has less environmental impact. solar pumps are useful where grid electricity is unavailable.
