SOLAR SURFACE PUMPS

Flowlight Booster Pump

The Conergy Flowlight Booster Pump provides city water pressure anywhere. It has been a standard in home renewable energy systems since 1986.

It is economical for domestic water supply, drip irrigation, and water purification.  Inlet must be filtered!

A booster pump is far more cost effective than an elevated tank, providing pressure equivalent to over 100 feet (30 m) of elevation.

It uses one third to one half the energy of a conventional AC pump, and eliminates high starting surges.

It is more powerful, quieter, and much more durable than plastic RV/Marine pumps.

Wearing parts are replaceable, and typically last 5 to 10 years. Overall life expectancy is 15 to 20 years.

The advantage of Flowlite is it can run, even if an inverter is down, directly from batteries.

The solar Slowpump by Conergy is capable of pushing water as high as 450 feet vertical. Supplying between 200 and 2600 gallons of well water a day while running on only a little amount of power with or without batteries.

Solar Slowpump is designed to run for years all day long. This is possible because of the superior design of the positive displacement vane pump mechanism, which is forged brass.  Pump should be located as close as possible to the water surface.

The pump requires 5-micron filtration for protection at the inlet.

If a PV-direct system (without batteries) is used then the watts required need to exceed the pump watts by 20% or plus, otherwise a linear current booster controller is needed for the pump to work properly.

If you use a battery-powered system with this pump the flow and wattage will be lowered by 15%.

By using a solar tracker it’s possible to increase the power your solar panels produce allowing you to pump up to 40%-50% more water in the summer time.
