There are two major types of solar pumps, DC (direct current) and AC (alternating current).
DC solar pump:
▪ power output up to 2kW
▪ suitable for small applications (garden fountain, landscaping)
▪ relatively low-priced (require slightly less solar panel)
▪ low compatibility (only selected controller work selected motor)
AC solar pump:
A solar pumping inverter is needed in AC solar pump setup. The inverter converts DC generated from solar array to AC to drive the pumps in the mean time (as the controller) to control output and speed.
▪ power output range from 150W to 55kW
▪ suitable for all kinds of applications from landscaping to irrigation, especially large scale such as farmland irrigation, desert control, etc.
▪ high compatibility (inverter works with different kinds of AC motor and pump).
