Solar Power 'Off-Grid' Pool Pumps
How would you like to take your pool pump 'off-the-grid' and start saving a truck load of cash!!
Did you know that your filtration pump is the most costly household electrical appliance to run? Depending on the size of your pool, to run a standard 1.5HP 240 volt AC pump costs anywhere from $1500 to $2000 in electricity every year. This also means you are contributing in the vicinity of 6 tons of greenhouse emissions each year.
Sun Saver solar power pumps give you an ‘off the grid’ opportunity that will save you more in energy costs than a 4 KW solar energy system. This may not sound possible, however, this is achieved mostly due to the fact that the Sun Saver solar power pool pump system utilises high efficiency brushless DC motor technology.
Brushless DC (Direct Current) motors are almost twice as efficient as AC (Alternating Current) motors, which means that the job of filtering with DC power can be achieved with a much smaller motor, which means fewer panels, which means lower cost. On top of this, a brushless DC motor will outlast its AC cousin by 2 to 3 times.
The Sun Saver solar power pool pump is equipped with a low voltage 48 volt 600 watt DC motor. Electricity is supplied by four 190 watt panels (760 watts). The power is managed by a specially designed controller that utilises MPPT technology. There are no inverters, just straight DC current from the panels directly to the pump, which means losses are minimal. The system is so efficient that it will continue to run even on partially cloudy days.
