Solar Water Pump

Essentially, solar-powered water pumps work by converting the sun's rays (photons) to electricity that will operate the water pump. It uses solar panels to collect the photons (units of light) from sunlight, producing the direct current (DC) that provides the energy for the motor to pump water out from its source.A water pump is a machine used to increase the pressure of water in order to move it from one point to another. Modern water pumps are used throughout the world to supply water for municipal, industrial, agricultural, and residential uses. Water pumps also are used to move wastewater in sewage treatment plants.2. Components of solar powered pump system : A photovoltaic solar powered pump system has three components: Pump • Controller • Solar panels. The power source, photovoltaic (PV) panels: A panel is rated in watts of power it can produce.
