About a 125m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump

125m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump

Model number: VC-3AC/DCP-6-125-200-1500-A

AC/DC CONTROLLER INTEGRATED

The VC-3AC/DCP6-125-200-1500-A is a high-efficiency submersible solar water pump designed for agricultural irrigation, livestock watering, and rural water supply. This pump features a plastic impeller, ensuring lightweight durability and corrosion resistance. With its dual AC/DC compatibility, it provides uninterrupted operation by seamlessly switching between solar power and an alternative AC power source, making it a reliable choice for off-grid and grid-tied applications.

Key Features of a 125m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump:

1. Dual Power Source (AC/DC) for Continuous Operation

• Works with both solar energy (DC) and grid/generator power (AC), ensuring reliable operation in all conditions.
• Automatically switches between solar panels and AC power, preventing downtime in low sunlight conditions.

2. Durable and Lightweight Plastic Impeller

• Corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant, making it ideal for long-term submersion.
• Lightweight construction reduces strain on the motor, enhancing efficiency and longevity.

3. High-Performance Water Pumping Capability

• Designed to lift water from deep wells with a maximum head of 125 meters.
• Provides a strong flow rate of 6 m³/h, suitable for medium-scale irrigation and water supply needs.

4. Smart AC/DC Controller with MPPT Technology

• MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) controller maximizes solar power efficiency, ensuring optimal performance.
• Features soft-start technology, preventing power surges and reducing wear on the motor.
• Built-in dry-run, overload, over-voltage, and overheating protection for added safety.

5. Energy Efficient and Cost-Effective

• Minimizes electricity costs by primarily operating on free solar energy.
• Ideal for off-grid and remote areas, eliminating the need for fuel-powered pumps.

6. Rugged Submersible Design

• Fully sealed and waterproof, protecting against corrosion and water ingress.
• Built for harsh environmental conditions, including high temperatures and dusty areas.

Advantages of a 125m Submersible Borehole Solar Water Pump:

• Eco-Friendly: No greenhouse gas emissions; operates solely on renewable solar energy.
• Cost-Effective: Low operating costs after installation due to zero fuel or electricity dependency.
• Durability: Stainless steel construction ensures resistance to corrosion, wear, and harsh conditions.
• Versatility: Can be used in both deep and shallow water sources.
• Low Maintenance: Fewer moving parts reduce the need for frequent servicing.

Limitations:

• High Initial Cost: Solar panels and pump systems can be expensive upfront, though they pay off in the long run.
• Dependent on Sunlight: Performance depends on the availability of sunlight, requiring battery backup or water storage for overcast days.
• Installation Complexity: Proper setup, including alignment of solar panels, is critical for optimal performance.

Specifications to Consider:

1. Flow Rate: Typically measured in liters per minute (L/min) or gallons per minute (GPM), based on irrigation or water supply needs.
2. Lift Height: The maximum vertical height the pump can raise water, critical for deep wells.
3. Power Requirements: Ensure compatibility between the solar panels, controller, and pump.
4. Material Quality: Stainless steel grade (e.g., 304 or 316) impacts corrosion resistance.
5. Warranty and Durability: Look for robust designs with extended warranties.

Working Principle:

1. Solar Energy Conversion:
   • Photovoltaic (PV) panels capture sunlight and convert it into DC electricity.
2. Power Transmission:
   • A controller regulates the power and supplies it to the pump.
3. Water Pumping:
   • The pump draws water from a source and delivers it to the required location.

Applications and Ideal Use Cases:

1. Irrigation Systems:
   • Suitable for farms or gardens where the water source has low sediment levels.
2. Livestock and Rural Homes:
   • Provides a sustainable water source for animals and domestic use in off-grid areas.
3. Aquaculture:
   • Ideal for clean water transfer in fish farming operations.
4. Remote Locations:
   • Serves as a reliable solution in areas with no grid power availability.

Maintenance Tips:

1. Clean Regularly:
   • Check the pump and impeller for debris or sediment buildup to maintain performance.
2. Inspect Wiring:
   • Ensure all solar connections and the controller are secure and functioning correctly.
3. Avoid Dry Runs:
   • Operate the pump only when there is adequate water to prevent overheating or impeller damage.
4. Seasonal Storage:
   • Protect the pump during extreme weather conditions, such as freezing winters or intense storms.
