Enhance efficiency of your solar water pumping systems through Himel SMART Solar VSD
Remote regions, unsafe supply from the electrical grid, and high load in local grid leading to frequent outages — these are the situations where solar energy can be more efficient, safer and easily utilized at an affordable cost. The versatile solar water pumping is now a proven scheme to meet the water pumping needs. These solar pumping systems in conjunction with the Variable Speed Drives called the solar drives, create an enormous energy-saving option even in the remotest of location. Solar drives are long lasting with low maintenance costs and are environment friendly.
How a Solar Variable Speed Drive works in the solar water pumping system
Photovoltaic cells also known as solar photovoltaic cells or PV works on the principle of conversion of light energy into electrical energy. Here the energy of the sunlight is absorbed by the PV which is converted in to electrical energy. An array is created with these PV. The Direct Current (DC) from these arrays is channelized to a DC bus which is an integral part of the solar drive. The Solar Variable Frequency drives basically convert the power from AC to DC and then back to AC with an altered frequency and voltage level.
The arrangements of motors and pumps don’t need to operate at their full speed always and it is here that the VSDs come into play. They alter the speed of the motors and increase the operational time of the pumping set besides saving a lot of energy and cost. Moreover, to top it all, a solar pumping system with solar drives comes with the below key benefits.
Minimal Electricity Cost
The amount of electricity saved would directly be derived from the scale of solar energy used for water pumping needs. With the use of Solar Pump Drives, the efficiency of the pumps can be increased, and the usage of electricity can be decreased
Operational Benefits
It stands out when the operational cost is compared to the traditional diesel-run pumping systems. With significantly lesser operating and maintenance costs, Solar VSD can be advantageous, especially in agricultural applications
Environment-friendly and Versatile
Solar pumping runs on renewable solar energy which is a cleaner universally-available source. These pumps are very versatile, from irrigation to drinking water needs, they are compatible with a wider range of applications
Install Himel Solar VSD for reliable, cost-efficient, and user-friendly operation
Himel Solar Variable Speed Drive allows the efficient usage of the abundantly available and reliable solar energy to pump water. The motors do not need to run at their full capacity for most hours of the day and these SMART Solar VSDs ensure and optimize the use of pumps according to the needs of the application. The auto-switching and energy-saving attributes make it a standout performer.
Built-in MPPT
Himel Solar VSDs have a built-in maximum power point tracking which ensures maximum power output from the solar panels thus optimizing the performance of your pump throughout.
