What size solar water pump inverter should I choose

How to choose a solar pump inverter?

Understand the rated power of the water pump. Normally, the rated power of the solar pump inverter should be slightly more than or equal to the rated power of the water pump to ensure that the pump can be operated normally. For instance, if the water pump's rated power is 2kW, the selected inverter should have a rated power of 2kW or higher.

How to choose a solar inverter?

Giant heads and larger flow water pumps usually require a higher-power solar inverter, which should be widely considered when choosing. Go with a brand and high-quality inverter to ensure efficiency, long lifespan, and guaranteed after-sale service. We recommend you choose Innotinum, a leading company for residential energy storage systems.

Do I need a solar inverter for a submersible water pump?

Solar inverter is not required in this type of solar pump. 6200 – 38400 liters per day. 5 years warranty for complete solar system and 25 years for solar panel. A 1 HP AC submersible water pump needs AC power/electricity to function. We can’t connect it with the solar panels directly as DC electricity cannot be used to power these water pumps.

How to choose a solar water pump?

You need to ensure that the input voltage of the solar pump matches the voltage needs of the solar panels and the water pump. Standard system voltages are 12V, 24V, and 48V. Consider the maximum rated voltage of the solar module, which you can easily take from the solar penal data sheet. Understand the rated power of the water pump.

How much power does a solar pump inverter have?

1.5kW solar pump inverter for sale, with AC 3.8A output current at 3-phase, 380V, DC voltage range (280V, 750V), and recommended DC MPPT range (350V, 750V). With IP20 protection class, the solar pump inverter works at (-10°C, 40°C). The solar pump inverter supports AC and DC input, the power factor is >0.99, and the humidity is less than 95%RH.

What rated power should a water pump inverter have?

For instance, if the water pump's rated power is 2kW, the selected inverter should have a rated power of 2kW or higher. If more system expansion is required, choose an inverter with a slightly higher rated power so that you don't need to replace it when the load is maximum.
