Important Information About Solar Borehole Pump Sizing

Solar borehole pumps are advertised according to their maximum pumping head. For example, an 80m pump can reach a maximum head of 80 metres, but at that height it will deliver very little or no water.

Simple sizing example:

  • Borehole pumping water level: 50m
  • Recommended pump rating: 80–100m
  • Reason: A higher-rated pump provides sufficient pressure and water flow instead of operating near its maximum limit.

Remember: An 80m pump does not mean it will deliver its advertised water flow at 80m. The deeper the water must be pumped, the less water the pump can deliver.

For best results, always choose a pump with sufficient capacity above your actual pumping depth. Final sizing must also consider the height of the storage tank, pipe friction and the required water flow.

About a 120m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump

120m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump

Model number: VC-4AC/DCS11-120-300-2200-A STAINLESS STEEL SOLAR WATER PUMP

AC/DC CONTROLLER SERIES

A 120m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump, VC-4AC/DCS11-120-300-2200-A Stainless Steel Solar Water Pump with AC/DC Controller Series is a versatile and durable pump system designed to operate on both solar power (DC) and grid power (AC). This dual-power capability ensures reliable performance in diverse environments, making it ideal for agricultural, residential, and industrial water pumping applications.


Key Features of a 120m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump:

  1. Dual Power Input:
    • Supports DC input from solar panels for energy-efficient operation.
    • Includes AC input compatibility for backup during cloudy days or nighttime.
  2. Stainless Steel Construction:
    • Resistant to corrosion, rust, and wear.
    • Suitable for harsh environments and water with high mineral content.
  3. Controller Series:
    • Equipped with an AC/DC controller to manage power switching and optimize performance.
    • Features Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for maximizing solar panel efficiency.
    • Provides protections such as overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, and dry-run safeguards.
  4. Pump Types:
    • Submersible Pumps: Ideal for deep wells or boreholes.
    • Surface Pumps: Suitable for shallow water sources and irrigation systems.
    • Centrifugal Pumps: Used for high flow rates and lower lift heights.
  5. Applications:
    • Agricultural irrigation (drip, sprinkler, or flood systems).
    • Drinking water supply in remote areas.
    • Livestock watering and aquaculture.
    • Garden fountains or water transfer.

Advantages of a 120m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump:

  1. Energy-Efficient:
    • Operates primarily on renewable solar energy, reducing electricity or fuel costs.
    • Backup AC power ensures continuous operation when solar energy is unavailable.
  2. Durable and Long-Lasting:
    • Stainless steel construction ensures extended life and resistance to harsh conditions.
  3. Versatile Applications:
    • Works with various water sources, including wells, rivers, ponds, and tanks.
  4. Ease of Use:
    • The controller automatically switches between solar and AC power, requiring minimal user intervention.
  5. Low Maintenance:
    • Robust design with fewer moving parts reduces maintenance needs.

Specifications to Consider:

  1. Pump Capacity:
    • Flow rate: Measured in liters per minute (L/min) or gallons per minute (GPM).
    • Lift height: Maximum height the pump can push water, critical for wells or hilly terrains.
  2. Solar Panel Requirements:
    • Voltage and wattage needed to power the pump efficiently.
    • Ensure compatibility with MPPT controller specifications.
  3. Controller Features:
    • Dual input for AC and DC power sources.
    • Protection mechanisms for voltage fluctuations and dry-run operation.
  4. Build Quality:
    • Look for high-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for better corrosion resistance.

Maintenance Tips:

  1. Regular Cleaning:
    • Clean solar panels periodically for optimal energy capture.
    • Keep the pump free from debris or sediment to maintain efficiency.
  2. Inspect Wiring:
    • Check for loose or damaged connections between solar panels, controller, and pump.
  3. Monitor Operation:
    • Ensure the pump doesn’t run dry, as it can lead to overheating or damage.
  4. Seasonal Care:
    • In cold climates, protect the pump from freezing during winter months.

Applications and Ideal Use Cases:

  1. Remote Farms: Combines solar and grid power to ensure uninterrupted water supply.
  2. Off-Grid Communities: Reliable water pumping where electricity is scarce.
  3. Sustainable Projects: Eco-friendly water solutions for agriculture or landscaping.
  4. Emergency Backup: Dual power capability provides resilience during grid outages.
