Design Specifications

Motor

• Pumps are fitted to ECDRIVE maintenance-free brushless DC motors without integrated electronics.
• They should be powered by solar arrays configured to provide the input voltage required and sized at approx 120% of the rated motor power.
• Speed: 900-3300 rpm
• Insulation Class: F
• Enclosure Class: IPX4

Controller

• Integrated data logging of all relevant technical parameters, flow, and fuel cost savings easily accessible via pump scanner smartphone app.
• Advanced configuration options for daily flow rate, constant and min/max pressure, level, and flow rate sensing.
• Sensor inputs for dry run protection, tank switch, water metering, pressure, and level sensing.
• Switch output for external devices (e.g chlorine dosing units, irrigation valves, etc).
• Integrated SunSensor for extended pump lifetime.
• Optional remote control functionality using the PS Communicator and pump manager service.
• Integrated MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) for maximum solar energy conversion efficiency.
• Protection against reverse polarity, overload, and over-temperature.

Operating conditions

• Pumped Liquid: Thin, clean, chemically non-aggressive liquids without solids and fibers.
• Maximum Liquid Temperature: +700 C
• Ambient Temperature: -300C - +500 C
• Suction Head: Max 6m (depending on operating parameters, refer to COMPASS software sizing)
