Solar Pumps – Solar Borehole, Surface & Pool Pumps

Introducing our solar pumping range – DC solar borehole pumps, solar surface and booster pumps, solar pool pumps, complete solar pump kits, controllers, spares and solar panels. Solar pumps run directly from solar panels through an MPPT controller, with no grid connection, no inverter and no battery bank, and suit off-grid homes, farms, livestock watering and small-scale irrigation. Brands include Difful, Vega, Omega and Watermax.

A solar pump stores water rather than electricity. During daylight it fills a tank, and the tank supplies water through the night and on cloudy days. That removes the cost of batteries and grid electricity entirely – the sun is the only running cost. South Africa receives between 4 and 6 peak sun hours a day depending on region, among the best solar conditions in the world for pumping.

 

What you will find in this range

  • Solar borehole pumps – 3-inch DC submersible screw and impeller pumps, 120W to 1 200W, lifting up to 180m
  • Complete solar pump kits – pump, motor, controller and solar panels supplied together
  • Solar surface and booster pumps – for tanks, dams and pressure boosting
  • Solar pool pumps – pool filtration without the electricity bill
  • Controllers & spares – MPPT controllers, regulators, PC boards and rotor/stator sets
  • Solar panels – high-output mono PERC PV modules

 

Choosing a solar pump comes down to three numbers: the total head the pump must lift against, the litres of water you need each day, and the peak sun hours where you live. Complete solar borehole systems start from around R6 400.
