Water Pumping

From off-grid residential to agricultural needs Matrix Energy can provide the components or a complete system to meet your water pumping needs powered by photovoltaics or wind generators. Pumping systems using battery storage are called "Demand" systems while all other pumping systems are called "Simple" systems. In a Demand system a charge controller regulates the amount of current entering the batteries, and protects them from overcharging or over-discharging. In a Simple system, the pump controller regulates the amount of current and voltage entering the pump itself, to ensure optimum shining then there are two options - chemical storage, where the power system keeps the battery bank charged, which in turn powers the pump on demand and mechanical storage where the water itself is stored in a reservoir.

Shurflo Submersible Pump Ideal for low volume pumping from deep wells, lakes or ponds to a cistern, the SF-9325 is capable of pumping 80 gallons per hour in full sun and from depths up to 230 feet. Designed to fit in a minimum 4" well casing, the 9325 pump works on 12 volts or for maximum performance, 24 volts. Electrical connections are made through a watertight submersible gland, so the cable can be disconnected from the pump without severing the wires. Features include a durable polymer housing and stainless steel fasteners, connects to 0.5" ID tubing and is field serviceable with replacement motors, seals and valves. Use with optional SF-9022 to increase pump output up to 30% in low light conditions. One year warranty.

 

Floating Pumps

This series of floating submersible pumps feature the RU with high capacity up to 12 ft lift. These pumps offer good reliability with long life at a reasonable price. The efficient M5 can pump up to 22 feet m), and has a maximum flow rate of 6 GPM (7 m), and has a maximum flow rate of 6  GPM (23 L/min). The versatile M10 can pump up to 45 feet (14 m), and has a maximum flow rate of 15 GPM (57 L/min). For larger volume applications, the M30 offers lifts up to 10 m or flow rates to 18 GPM (68 L/min). These solar direct or battery powered pumps may be serviced in the field, offer long life and can even tolerate silty water.

SLOWPUMP

Any of the 1304 or 2507 Slowpump models can operate directly off of solar panels or batteries and can lift water as high as 450 vertical feet (137m). They can be operated at half of their rated voltage which provides half the rated flow and requires half the required wattage for a given lift. This means that your Slowpump installations are expandable and very flexible. Wearing parts typically last 5 to 10 years. Overall life expectancy is 15-20 years. See the chart below for output performance.

IMPORTANT: The rated power of the solar array must exceed the pump watts by 20% or more. All Slowpumps require filtration of up to 10 microns and must not run dry.
