Solar water pump
A solar water pump is a pump which run on electricity generated by photovoltaic solar panels or the thermal energy. It is available from collected sunlight as opposed to grid electricity or diesel run water pumps. The working of pumps is more economical. It mainly due to the lower process and maintenance costs and has very less environmental. It impact than pumps powered by an internal combustion engine (ICE). They are more useful where grid electricity is unavailable and alternative sources are not able to provide sufficient energy.
In a basic model of the solar panels . They are directly connected to a water pump. And there is no batteries are connect with them. The system not only stop work during the night but also may not work during cloudy conditions. If the application is intended to used this system during the day time only . Then this option is avilable. If the aplicant want to use the system in night. Then the setup must include a battery bank which stores energy. When sun is available, and uses it during cloudy weather and also during the night.
Advantages of solar pump:-
- It utilize solar energy ,which is free of cost.
- That is environmentally friendly.
- The fountain has higher mobility as there are no external electrical connections
- It requires very low maintenance.
