SOLAR PUMP USER’S MANUAL
Item No.: SPB50-801210D
1. OVERVIEW
1)
The solar water pump is designed for fountains, small waterfalls or
pond water filtrations, etc. and is powered by a solar module.
2)
The solar module needs to be placed in the sunlight with its solar
cells facing the sun as much as possible.
3)
The power supply of the pump is provided by a battery station which
is charged by the solar module, so that the pump is capable of
working at nights and on overcast days.
4)
The latest DC brushless motor technology is introduced in the pump
design and manufacturing, so that the pump has high efficiency and long service life.
5)
The pump has a built-in function of dry-run protection. The dry-run protection function is provided by two
sensor points on one side of the pump body (not visible from outside). The pump works if both of the points
are submerged in water. If either or both points emerge out of water, the pump stops working.

2)Pump
3)“Y” connector
4)Extension cord
5)Battery station
6)Hose connection
7)Gland nut
3. ASSEMBLING
1)
Unpack
all
components
carefully.
2)
Electrically connect the two solar panels and the input power cord on the back of the battery station through
the “Y” connector and the extension cord as shown in the figure above, and then tighten the plug protection
screws. Install the two solar panels at a sunny place by the ground spikes, adjust the angle to face the solar
panels toward the sun.
3)
Electrically connect the pump to the 18V output port 1 of the battery station and tighten the plug protection
screw.
4)
Mount the hose connection to the pump outlet by means
of the enclosed gland nut. Thanks to the ball joint design,
the angle of the hose connection could be adjusted under
water when necessary.
5)
Attach the hose onto the outlet of the hose connection.
The hose connection is suitable for various hose
diameters (inside diameter 25,32 or 38 mm).
6)
Completely immerse the stream pump into the water.
7)
Turn the “ON/OFF” switch of the battery station to the
“ON” position, then the “SYSTEM” status LED on the
battery shows green and the system is activated.
The
“SYSTEM” status LED may show red with battery
outputting no power when the battery station operates for the first time, since the battery station
may lose its energy during the storage. It just needs to be charged for several hours in the
sunshine by facing the solar module towards the sun, then the “SYSTEM” status LED shows green
and the battery station is ready to work.
8)
The power output will be automatically cut off while the battery station is discharged to its low voltage limit,
and the “SYSTEM” status LED shows red in the meantime.
9)
The “SYSTEM” status LED stays in red before the battery is recharged to its starting voltage. After recharged
to its starting voltage, the battery shall continue to be charged for an extra hour with the “SYSTEM” status
LED flashing red-green twice every 10 seconds. Then the power output is resumed and the “SYSTEM” status
LED shows green again.
10) Activate the output port 1 by pressing the corresponding “OUTPUT 1 ON/OFF” button on the top of the battery
station, the output 1 indicator shows green and the pump starts to work. To stop the pump, just disable the
output 1 by pressing the “OUTPUT 1 ON/OFF” button again.
11) The “TIMER ON/OFF” button switches the running mode of the pump hooked up to output 1 between
"intermittent mode" and "continuous mode". In the “intermittent mode” (i.e., “TIMER ON”), a build-in timer is
enabled to run the pump for 10 minutes per hour to save the energy, and it is especially useful in winter or on
cloudy days. In the "continuous” mode, the build-in timer is disabled and the pump shall run continuously
until the battery exhausted.
12) The “CHARGING” yellow LED indicator lightens when the battery is being charged, otherwise the LED indicator
shuts off.
