- No fuel required: Solar pumps operate independently of traditional fuel sources and grid power, harnessing energy directly from the sun. Cloudy weather does not affect the performance of solar pumps. Their performance improves when the sun is shining brighter.
- Environmental Sustainability: Solar energy is clean, free, and pretty reliable. Solar pumps cut carbon footprints, replacing diesel generators with clean energy.
- Water Security: Solar pumps ensure a steady supply of water to overhead tanks and pipes, making clean water readily available for homes—guaranteeing a dependable source for drinking, cleaning, and daily needs.
- Financial Savings: Solar pump does not require expensive maintenance and can operate flawlessly for years and help you save a lot of money on maintenance and repair.
- Energy Independence: On-site Solar PV systems ensure a constant water supply, unaffected by grid outages, offering a self-reliant, decentralized approach to water access.
Solar Pumps for Drinking Water Supply
Nothing is more important than access to drinking water, and selecting a safe and reliable water source is essential. In the long run, solar pumping systems are significantly more cost-effective in terms of use and maintenance compared to grid connections or diesel power.
Serving Families
Water management is a critical concern for every household. Pumping groundwater effectively ensures access to safe and clean drinking water. Utilizing a solar energy system for this purpose is the most cost-effective solution.

Is It the Right Time to Switch to Solar Pumps?
Absolutely, especially if conventional electricity isn't available to power your pump, solar pumps are the only reliable option. Many townships and houses use solar water pump to maintain the drinking water supply.
Solar pumps stand as the beacon of reliability in such situations, offering a constant, uninterrupted water supply. They're not just an upgrade—they're a necessity for energy independence.
With solar, you're not just future-proofing your water system; you're also investing in a sustainable, cost-effective solution that requires minimal maintenance.
It's time to make the smart switch for a reliable, eco-friendly water supply.
How Solar Energy Works
1. Converting Sunlight to Electricity: Sunlight hits the solar panel, causing electrons to move and generate direct current (DC). This current travels through wires to the pump controller.
2. Role of the Solar Pump Controller: The controller manages the system, using sensors to regulate the submersible motor, which drives the pump to push water to the surface.
2. Sizing the Solar Water Pump: The pump size is based on factors such as the vertical lift needed, pressure required, and daily water demand. These elements help determine the right pump model and system configuration.
How to calculate the ”Head”
Head Calculation Table for Solar Water Pumps
Rated Head:
Water source: Borehole (diameter mm)
H1: Lift from lowest water level to ground. (m)
H2: Tank height and additional lift if available. (m)
L: Horizontal distance of water delivery. (m)
Calculation: Rated Head ＞ H1 + H2 + (10% x L)
Rated Flow:
Depends on the customer's daily water needs. (The daily illumination time is 6H)
By calculating the required head and flow, you can ensure that your solar water pump system will efficiently meet your water delivery needs.
How to choose a water pump extension cord
Our water pumps come equipped with a 2-meter cable. However, the customers also have the option to extend the cable themselves.
Cable Selection Considerations:
Ensure the cable is waterproof to withstand outdoor conditions and prevent any electrical hazards.
Wire Configuration:
Opt for a 3-wire or 4-wire cable to ensure proper grounding and safe operation.
Cable Thickness:
Lengths ≤ 50 meters: Use a 2.5 sq mm cable.
50 - 100 meters: Use a 4 sq mm cable.
100 - 200 meters: Use a 6 sq mm cable.
How to choose solar panels
It's recommended that the solar panel has a power rating 1.3 -1.5 times greater than the water pump's power.
Additionally, ensure the voltage of the solar array matches the voltage requirements of the water pump.
For example:
3" DC Solar Pump with Plastic Impeller
- Power: 750W
- Optimum input voltage: 90-120V
- Maximum open circuit voltage: 160V
Recommended solar panel power ≥1.3*750w (power≥975w)
- VMP(voltage at max) voltage >90v
- VOC voltage <160v
Solar panels:
- Power 330 watts
- VMP voltage 37.26v
- VOC voltage 45.64v
3 solar panels connected in series:
- Power 330w*3=990w
- VMP voltage 37.26v*3=111.78v
- VOC voltage 45.64v*3=136.92v
In this case, the power and voltage requirements of the water pump can be met, so this solar PV panel array solution is acceptable.
