Solar Pumps

Solar Pumps for Water Distribution

Using multiple PV panels that power an electric motor, a solar pump can conveniently pump water either from a stream or underground, into a storage tank.

From here, you can distribute water to various places as needed and use it for:

  • Crop Irrigation
  • Potable Drinking Water
  • Livestock

Two Types of Solar Pumps

There are two basic types of solar pumps that can be used in Toowoomba, Dalby and Stanthorpe.

The two basic pump types:

Centrifugal Solar Pumps

This type of solar pump uses high speed rotation to suck water into the middle of the pump.This is common amongst many pumps with centrifugal impeller. The only cons when using this is it has the tendency to reduce performance when there is not sufficient sun to power it.

Positive Displacement Solar Pumps

Rather than a centrifugal impeller, this type of solar pump uses a piston to transfer water. This is the preferred choice of many because of the consistency it delivers. The only downside is that it pumps water slower than centrifugal solar pumps.

How Reliable are Solar Pumps for Agriculture Lands and Home Use?

The dependability of your chosen solar pump depends on the water source.

Is it a well or a bore; or a river or a lake?

It’s important to not only buy high quality solar pumps but to ask an expert to help install it for you.

This ensures you will indeed get a reliable water system.

Submersible Solar Pumps or Surface Solar Pumps?

Between the two, submersible solar pumps are the better option.

It may be more expensive but it is better at suction.

It can even draw water from water that is more than six to seven meters.

On the other hand, the less expensive surface solar pumps can help only if you are aiming to push water over longer distances.

So in the end, it depends on how you intend to use your solar pumps.
