About Solar Water Pump System

Solar Water Pump Systems or Solar Powered Pumps are comprised of several equipments which include solar panels, controller to control the system and a pump unit with a motor. Moreover, such pumps do not require complicated connections as they use solar power.

Places where Solar Water Pumps are installed:-

•     Backyard
•     Solar powered fountains
•     Pumps
•     Wells

They are designed mainly for pumping water from wells and fit for well casing. They are more economical pumps which require lower operation and maintenance costs. They have less environmental impact than pumps which are powered by an internal combustion engine (ICE).

Advantages of Solar Powered Water Pumps:-

•     Cheap to build and cheap to power
•     Simple and easy to operate
•     Use free energy that is solar energy
•     Bring water to remote homes, cabins and campgrounds.
•     Best for irrigation and pumping for gardens and homes
•     Simple store generated energy into batteries
•    Great benefit for environment as these are renewable and easily   available

Solar Water Heating System versus Solar Water Pump System

Solar Water Heating Systems can be quite expensive to heat the home but the Solar Water Pumps System is less expensive than former one and is known to be a nice alternative and non polluting system.

Solar Water Heating Systems are used to heat the water for bathing and other purposes. While Solar Water Pump Systems are designed to supply underground water to render different uses.

Can Solar Water Pump System used at night?

Yes!! Solar Water Pump System can be used in day and at night as well. Being powered by the sun, this pump tends to run better during the day. However, there comes a back up battery along with it that stores the power so that one can have a continual supply of water even during the night.

Solar Water Pumping System

Solar energy is a kind of an inexhaustible natural energy which is highly dependable in many countries such as India, China, Mexico, Vietnam and other countries where sun energy is easily available. There are several equipment that are now a days running with solar energy with minimum operation cost. Solar pumps are one of the most popular equipment that are widely used for watering stock, crop irrigation, industrial water supply and even residential and pool applications over the other available mediums.

Working of a solar water pumping system

The system operates on power generated using solar PV (photovoltaic) system. The photovoltaic array converts the solar energy into electricity, which is used for running the motor pump set. The pumping system draws water from the open well, bore well, stream, pond, canal etc. The system requires a shadow-free area for installation of the solar panel. These are coming in various size and capabilities.

Advantages of solar water pumping system

• No fuel cost - As it uses sun light
• No electricity required
• Long operating life
• Highly reliable and durable
• Easy to operate and maintain
• Eco-friendly
• Solar Pumps are good to be used in remote places

As government are also helping to the solar industry and providing various aids. Hence such kind of innovative and new kind of equipment are launching in the market. Among these, the water pumping system have their own & unique importance in the solar field because of their easy preparation & highly energy efficiency compare to other similar equipments.
