Irrigation

Designed for Practical Irrigation Requirements

Solar irrigation systems place unique demands on pumping equipment. Flow rate, total head, pipe length, and duty cycle all play a critical role in performance. Outback Solar Pumps irrigation solutions are designed to ensure pumps are correctly matched to the application, improving reliability and efficiency.

Applications Include:

  • SMALL TO MEDIUM IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
  • GARDEN AND HORTICULTURE WATERING
  • LOW VOLUME DRIP AND SPRAY IRRIGATION
  • TRANSFER FROM DAMS, BORES OR STORAGE TANKS

How Solar Irrigation Pumping Works

  • Solar Panels Generate DC Power During Daylight Hours

  • MPPT Controller Optimises Available Solar Input

  • Pump Delivers Water Directly To Irrigation Lines Or Storage

  • Flow Increases With Available Sunlight

Key Benefits of Solar Irrigation Systems

  • NO FUEL OR GRID POWER REQUIRED
  • OPERATES WHEN WATER IS NEEDED MOST
  • Solar panel and water pump system in a field with clear sky
    LOW OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE COSTS
  • SCALABLE SYSTEM DESIGN FOR ADDED PERFORMANCE

Engineered for Consistent Flow & Reliability

Outback Solar Pumps irrigation systems use brushless DC pump technology combined with intelligent MPPT control. Built-in protection systems safeguard against dry running, overload, voltage fluctuation, and thermal stress.

Typical Irrigation System Configurations

  • Direct Pumping to Irrigation Lines

  • Pumping to Elevated Storage Tanks

  • Bore-to-Dam or Dam-to-Field Transfer

  • Zoned Irrigation Layouts

Selecting the Right Solar Pump for Irrigation

Correct pump selection depends on bore depth, total dynamic head, required flow rate, pipe diameter, and daily operating hours. Outback Solar Pumps assists with system sizing to ensure reliable irrigation performance.
