The solar water pumping system is a stand-alone system operating on power generated
using solar PV (photovoltaic) system. The power generated by solar cells is used
for operating DC surface centrifugal mono-block pumpset for lifting water from bore
/ open well or water reservoir for minor irrigation and drinking water purpose.
The system schematic is shown in the figure below. The system requires a shadow-free
area for installation of the Solar Panel
1 HP
The system is provided with 900 W solar PV panel (12 nos. X 75 Wp) and 1 HP centrifugal
DC mono-block / AC submersible with inverter. The average water delivery of 1 HP
solar pump will be around 70,000 liters per day, for a head of 10 metres. The size
of suction & delivery lines is 2.5 inches (62.5 mm).
Advantages of solar pump sets
- No fuel cost-uses abundantly available free sun light
- No conventional grid electricity required
- Long operating life
- Highly reliable and durable- free performance
- Easy to operate and maintain
- Eco-friendly
- Saving of conventional diesel fuel

2 HP
The system is provided with 1800 W solar PV panel (24 nos. X 75 Wp) and 2 HP centrifugal
DC mono-block / AC submersible with inverter. The average water delivery of 1 HP
solar pump will be around 1,40,000 liters per day, for a head of 10 metres. The
size of suction & delivery lines is 2.5 inches (62.5 mm).

Average discharge of pump
|
SPV pump set will have the capacity to give discharge of 70,000 liters on clear
sunny day (approx.) subject to variation due to solar isolation and water table
condition. This discharge will be suitable for irrigating 2-3 acres of land.
