A sustainable solution to cover the water needs of farmers and communities
0.5 HP sunlight pump
Main advantages of the 0.5 HP sunlight pump, an innovative Swiss technology:
Easy to install, use and maintain
Solar or battery powered
No costs for fuel or electricity
Total delivery head up to 60m
Light weight & portable water pump
Very low maintenance and repair costs
High quality and long lifetime (10+ years)
Highest system efficiency in the market
Electronics
- 0.5HP (373W) solar power pump – operating from multiple panel configurations from 100 to 500W
- Integrated water flow and tank overflow sensors for an automated and simple operation of the pump system
- Battery Mode Controller – for operating with multiple battery voltage levels and integrated battery protection
- Advanced Motor and PV Controller – for integrated Maximum Power Point Tracking and variable speed operation
- Application interface for pay-as-you-go available
Motor
- High efficiency brushless DC Motor developed by ennos. Maintenance-free operation for over ten years
- High overall system efficiency which means that less solar panels are required in comparison to competitors for the same performance
- High torque and power capability enables a wide flow and pressure rang
Pump head
- PCD – Progressive Cavity Displacement – pump for constant flow regardless of pressure
- Very robust
- Low maintenance
- Can lift water up to 60 meters (2 years warranty up to 40 meters only)
- Output of up to 25’000 litres per day in solar mode
- Output per day can be increased if pumping hours are extended with a battery
App
- Bluetooth interface to monitor the performance of the pump and diagnose technical problem
- Integrated Data Logger for monitoring and research (statistic operation data)
Features and Specifications of the sunlight pump
- According to Global Leap Award 2019: Best performance in comparison to competing products
- No electricity, no diesel required
- No running costs
- Very low maintenance and repair costs
- Android app available to monitor performance of the pump and visualise logged data
- Multiple use system: The excess energy from the solar panel that is not used for pumping can be stored in a battery to power other appliances (e.g. light, phone charging, cooling, refrigerator, TV etc.) or to extend pumping hours during peak dry season
- The sunlight pump can be directly connected to a solar PV panel between 100 to 500 Watt or to a battery
- Very compact design design (L575mm x W200mm x H270mm) and low weight (14kg) make the sunlight pump portable which allows for sharing of the pump among farmers and easy positioning in the field
- Pressure side hose lengths up to 5'000m possible
- Versatile use system: Perfect match with drip irrigation, sprinklers and filter for drinking water
