Solar pump 250W Head 80 meters

A 250 W solar pump with ~80 m head is a solar-powered submersible water pump that uses sunlight (through solar panels) to drive a direct-current (DC) pump without needing grid electricity. These pumps are ideal for remote, off-grid water needs such as irrigation, livestock watering, household water supply, and small farm applications.

Typical Components

✔ Pump unit: Brushless DC submersible pump designed for deep wells/boreholes.
✔ Controller/MPPT: A solar pump controller to manage power from panels and protect the pump (over/under voltage, dry-run prevention).
✔ Solar panels: Usually 2×250 W panels (or similar) to provide enough energy for the pump to reach max head.
✔ Cabling & fittings: Solar-rated cables, MC4 connectors, and pipe fittings for installation.

Key Performance Specs

• Rated Power: ~250 W DC (solar) – consumes about this from solar panels.

• Max Head: ~80 m (vertical lift from water source to delivery point).

• Motor Type: Brushless DC motor — efficient, quiet, and low maintenance.

• Max Flow: Often around 1.2–1.6 m³/hour (≈1200–1600 L/hour) depending on head and sunlight intensity.

• Operating Voltage: Typically 24 V DC, sometimes up to ~36 V depending on controller design.

• Pump Type: Submersible — installed inside the well or water source.
