The first DC spherical motor pump for direct connection to photovoltaic panels with automatic performance optimization using Maximum PowerPoint (MPP) tracking.
Â
Â
- Startup power requires less than 1 W
- Directly connects to PV panel
- Economic and powerful
- Wide Variability
- ECM technology
- Shaft-less spherical motor
Application
Every three seconds the processor will modify its operating point on the voltage-current curve of the PV panel to find the point of maximum performance. At this point, the pump achieves the maximum rpm and therefore the maximum performance. There is no need for a separate performance device. The ecocirc Solar pump will always find its best operating point under any given light and temperature conditions.
- The ecocirc solar pump can be used for most circulation pump applications without connection to the power grid via direct connection to a photovoltaic panel.
- This pump is perfect for single family home thermal solar systems or any circulation pump application where conventional power is not available.
- The only moving part is a hemispherical rotor/impeller unit that sits on an ultra-hard, wear-resistant ceramic ball.
- There are no conventional shaft bearings or seals, eliminating bearing noise and seal leaks.
- This pump is robust and has an estimated service life in excess of 50,000 hours.
- The self-realigning bearing is lubricated and cooled by the media.
- Even after prolonged shutdown, the pump will start reliably.
- All parts exposed to the fluid are completely corrosion resistant.
- When the photovoltaic panel provides sufficient power, the pump goes through the alignment phase by turning the rotor into the position required for startup.
- The processor then waits until the capacitor is sufficiently charged.
- This enables a start-up with minimal power (less than one watt).
- The ecocirc Solar pump comes with an integrated over-temperature safety device which shuts off the pump electronics when reaching temperatures over 230 °F.
- When the temperature of the pumped fluid is below 203 °F the pump will function normally.
- The temperature of the electronic components is influenced by the temperature of the pumped media and by the speed setting.
- After reaching a critical temperature 203 °F the pump will lower its speed automatically in order to avoid a total shutdown.
- However, if the temperature continues to rise the pump will eventually shut down completely and automatically restart after cooling down.

What's the difference between the models?
The model 090 includes an on/off valve and backflow preventer.
What fittings does the pump come with?
Both models come with 1/2" copper fittings.
