DC (solar or battery)

Max flow: 1500 liters per hour

Recommend solar panel: 300W-480W
We highly recommend that you use a 300W - 480Watt solar panel FOR THE BEST RESULTS.
This pump will, however, run on anything between 11v and 55v
This pump goes straight on a solar panel and will keep on pumping while the solar panel gets sun. It does not come with any control box. You will have to switch it ON/OFF manually.
From experience, it pumps at max capacity (1500 liters per hour) at 20m-35m, but from 35m - 50m the flow drops a bit.
Maintenance on these pumps is quite simple.
The most common case of pump failure is due to debris that clog up inside the pump. Solve this by opening the TOP silver part(NOT the motor) and cleaning the rotor/worm/spiral. If all else fails, you may need to replace the rotor. Avoid running pump dry as this may cause irreversible damage. For this reason, the pump does not have a warranty or guarantee
Spare rotors sold separately.
