How It Works?

Solar Pump

A solar pump system utilizes photovoltaic panels to convert sunlight into electrical energy, which is used to power a water pump. This technology is especially beneficial in remote locations where grid electricity is unavailable. By reducing reliance on conventional energy sources, solar pumps decrease operational costs and environmental impact. They are a sustainable choice for irrigation, livestock watering, and rural water supply, leveraging renewable energy for essential water needs.

A solar pump, also known as a solar-powered water pump, utilizes solar energy to pump water from a water source, such as a well, borehole, or reservoir. These pumps are particularly beneficial in remote areas where access to electricity is limited or unreliable. Here's how a solar pump typically works

how a solar pump works

  1. Solar Panels: Solar panels are installed in an area with ample sunlight exposure, such as rooftops or open fields. These panels consist of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity.
  2. Solar Energy Conversion: When sunlight hits the solar panels, the photovoltaic cells generate DC electricity. The amount of electricity produced depends on factors such as the intensity of sunlight, the angle of the solar panels, and their efficiency.
  3. Powering the Pump: The DC electricity generated by the solar panels is sent to a solar pump controller or directly to a DC motor pump. The controller regulates the voltage and current to match the requirements of the pump motor.
  4. Pumping Water: The pump motor, powered by the solar electricity, draws water from the source, such as a well or borehole. The pump can be submersible, placed directly in the water source, or surface, located above the water level with a pipe reaching down to the source.
  5. Water Delivery: The pumped water is then delivered through pipes or hoses to its intended destination, such as irrigation systems, livestock watering troughs, or storage tanks.
  6. Operation of Atta Chakki Machinery: The AC electricity from the inverter powers the motor and other components of the atta chakki machinery. The motor drives the grinding stones or rollers, which crush and grind wheat grains into flour.
  7. Grinding Process: Wheat grains are fed into the atta chakki, where they come into contact with the rotating grinding stones. The grains are crushed between the stones, resulting in the production of flour.
  8. Flour Collection: The freshly ground flour is collected from the atta chakki and can be used for making chapatis, rotis, and other wheat-based food items.
  9. Monitoring and Maintenance: A monitoring system may be in place to track the performance of the solar panels, batteries, and overall energy production. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the solar panels and checking the battery bank, is essential for optimal operation of the solar atta chakki system.
