About Solar Energy

What is solar power?

The sun doesn’t just provide warmth and light – it’s also a source of energy.

Solar energy (or solar power) is the energy we generate from sunlight. Through a process known as the photovoltaic effect, we can convert energy from the sun’s rays into electricity that can power our TVs, refrigerators, lights and other appliances.

(The photovoltaic effect is what makes solar possible. )

To generate solar energy for your home or Business, you need a solar power system.

Submerged irrigation pump with surface mounted motor

This configuration was widely installed with turbine pumps. It gives easy access to the pump motor for brush changing and other maintenance.

The low efficiency from power losses in the shaft bearings and the high cost of installation has been disadvantages.

In general this configuration is largely being replaced by the submersible motor and irrigation pumpset.

Surface suction irrigation pumpsets

This type of irrigation pumpset is not recommended except where an operator will always be in attendance

Although the use of primary chambers and non-return valves can prevent loss of prime, in practice self-start and priming problems are experienced.

It is impractical to have suction heads of more than 8 meters..
