DC IRRIGATION PUMP BRUSH-TYPE
A 10m Irrigation System Solar water Pump, VC-80 DC irrigation pump (brush-type) is a type of electric pump powered by direct current (DC) and equipped with a brushed motor. These pumps are widely used for agricultural irrigation, gardening, and small-scale water supply systems. Here’s an overview of its features and operation:
Key Features of an Irrigation System Solar Water Pump Brush-Type:
-
Power Source:
- Operates on a DC power supply, typically from batteries or solar panels.
- Suitable for remote areas without access to grid electricity.
-
Motor Type:
- Uses a brushed motor where electrical current is delivered to the motor through brushes and a commutator.
- Brushed motors are simple, cost-effective, and widely used.
-
Performance:
- Offers steady water flow suitable for small to medium irrigation needs.
- Pumping capacity varies depending on the model, ranging from a few liters per minute to higher outputs.
-
Applications:
- Primarily used for irrigation in agriculture.
- Can also serve in gardening, fish farming, and small-scale water transfer applications.
-
Advantages:
- Affordable compared to brushless or AC-powered models.
- Compatible with off-grid solutions like solar panels.
- Easy to maintain with replaceable brushes.
How an Irrigation System Pump Works:
- The pump consists of an electric motor (DC brushed) connected to an impeller or a diaphragm mechanism.
- When powered, the motor drives the impeller or diaphragm, creating suction to draw water and discharge it at a higher pressure.
- The flow rate and pressure depend on the pump’s specifications and the power supplied.
Maintenance Tips:
-
Brush Replacement:
- Regularly check and replace the brushes as they wear down with use.
-
Keep Clean:
- Ensure the pump is free from debris or dirt to avoid damage.
-
Prevent Dry Runs:
- Do not operate the pump without water to prevent overheating or damage to the internal components.
