SIMA ELECTRIC DC Water Well Pump!
Farm, Ranch & Other Remote water need owners!
Finally a robust DC powered water well pump at a BIG discount & with BIGG PERFORMANCE for it's price & size Too!
The Sima Model 109-P pump is designed to operate anywhere in the 12v-24v dc range with 4 amp minimum supply current.
In selling solar powered air & water pumps for over 15 years now - we understand the needs of ranchers & farmers well enough to know that you are busy enough with your daily chores & have no time for unnecessary maintenance items. THIS PUMP will do the job and do it well with minimal attention and not to mention the easy installation options for this pump. Although 24 volt dc power at 4 amps is needed for Maximum Performance (or reduced amps in lower water lift applications) YOU can Power the Sima Electric Solar Water Well pump off a battery, Hook it to a 24v OR 12 volt (or anywhere in between) solar panel array, a Voltage fluctuating 12-24v dc wind generator... Just make sure your power source provides sufficient amperage to operate the pump.
Remember: POWER (watts) is equal = to: Volts X Amps and Amps is equal to Watts divided by Voltage. For example a 50 watt 12 volt panel would supply 4.16 amps. (50 divided by 12 = 4.16a).......OR an 80 watt 24 volt panel would supply 3.3amps, etc. Always ensure the pump is Not connected to a power source that is insufficient to power the pump, as this will cause heat to build up in the motor windings causing damage which is Not covered under warranty. If motor operates and is pumping water, you are good to go.
A storage battery with charge controller is a perfect option to connect either: Solar PV panel(s) OR wind generator, etc to the pump to leave unattended as this will negate any problems with wind generator power production in low wind situations or solar PV panels in low lite conditions when the power produced is insufficient to run the pump. We offer a great charge controller box with many functions for $65.00 with purchase of this pump if desired (please request this before paying invoice and we can add to your order if desired).
***Note: IF YOU HAVE A 4 INCH DIAMETER WELL CASING: You may or may not be able to use this pump. Most 4 inch well casings are true "4 inch INSIDE Diameter" and with slight modification to the plastic housing of this pump, Will allow the pump to slide down the pipe. We have seen some 4 inch diameter well casings which are too small diameter to allow use of this pump....
Specifications:
Pump Design: 3-Chamber, Positive Diplacement diaphragm pump. Runs "dry" without damage too, however this situation should not be sustained for extended periods.
Maximum Water Lift: 208.6 feet
Maximum submersion depth (below water level) for pump: 105 feet (this rating is due to the seals which keep water out of the sealed motor chamber - do not submerge more than 100ft underneath water, typically a submersion depth of 15-20feet beneath "static water level" is sufficient to allow for water drawdown during pump operation).
Operating Voltage: 12 to 24 volts DC 4 amp (amp draw will vary depending on Water Lift Height in your application - do not let pump remain connected to power source that is insufficient to power the pump).
Max amp draw: 4.7 amps
Inlet screen design: 50 micron Stainless Steel (great for wells with sediment, sand, etc)
Max pressure: 90psi (with Internal Bypass OverPressure protection up to 105 psi)
Max Flow rate: 800 Liters per hour / 213 Gallons per hour
Construction: High Strength Engineered Plastic & Stainless Steel
Convertible Water discharge Ports: 1/2" Male Pipe thread & 1/2"Female hosebarb connectors included.
Size: Approx 14 in x 4.2 in
Weight: Approx 12 lb
