CRI pumps are leading solar water pump manufacturers. A solar water pump is a welcome alternative to the fuel-burning pump sets. The entire solar water pump system is robust and the mounting structure can withstand extreme conditions. The solar water pump is powered by solar modules that help draw surface or groundwater out for irrigation. Basics of Solar Water Pumps: A solar water system needs to be installed in a shadow-free area. A solar water pump consists of a solar PV panel, a motor pump set with a photovoltaic array, and pipes. The Photovoltaic array powers the entire system. It converts solar energy into electricity and runs the motor pump set. The solar pump system does not have any storage battery since the power generated is used directly then and there. This system is a combination of impellers and motors. The solar pumping system can draw water from an open well, bore well, or streams or canals. Advantages of Solar Water pumps The advantages are many as there are no fuel costs involved and solar pumps have a long operating life. Solar pumps contribute to the reduction in carbon emission and pollution. They are highly reliable and durable. Using solar pumps, water can be supplied to small villages, schools, hospitals, and homes. Benefits of Solar Pumps to the Agriculture sectors With the help of a solar pump system, it is possible to harness water at any time during the day and farmers can plan other activities accordingly. They need not irrigate on the nights when a power supply for agriculture purposes is provided. Drip and sprinkler systems can be connected to the solar water pump system. Solar water pumps are a one-time investment and have zero running
