2.2kW 4-Inch Solar Borehole Pump System — Industrial Water Pumping
The 2.2kW solar borehole pump represents the upper end of residential and light commercial solar pump technology. Capable of reaching 200m total dynamic head and delivering 6–8m³/hour, this system handles the most demanding water supply requirements — large irrigation schemes, wine estates, intensive poultry or dairy farms, and remote communities.

Commercial Applications
The 2.2kW system is used extensively on wine farms in the Western Cape, vegetable farms in the Boland, citrus estates in Limpopo, and potato farms in the Sandveld — anywhere that large volumes of water are needed without reliable Eskom supply or where reducing electricity costs is a priority.
Reliability in Harsh Conditions
South Africa’s borehole water often contains sand and particulates. The 2.2kW pump features a sand-resistant motor, hardened stainless steel impellers, and an oil-filled sealed motor housing that extends service life significantly compared to water-filled motors in sandy conditions.
FAQ
Can the 2.2kW system be integrated with an existing irrigation controller?
Yes. The MPPT pump inverter includes external start/stop terminals compatible with standard irrigation controllers and time clocks, allowing scheduled pumping during optimal sun hours.
Is this system suitable for boreholes deeper than 200m?
For boreholes deeper than 200m, we recommend a 3-phase 3.7kW or 5.5kW system. Contact us for a custom quote based on your specific borehole depth and yield requirements.
What maintenance does a solar borehole pump require?
Solar borehole pumps require minimal maintenance — the main tasks are annual inspection of the above-ground components, checking cable connections, and cleaning solar panels. The submersible motor itself typically runs maintenance-free for 5–10 years.
