CONT

The sun powers the thermo dynamics solar pump - no batteries, no high-voltage electricity, no engine consuming gasoline or diesel fuel - only harmless, low-voltage, solar-generated electricity, eternally available and pollution free. The solar pump system utilizes a positive displacement vane pump driven by a DC motor. A photovoltaic (PV) module drives the DC motor with a linear current booster that provides maximum performance at all solar irradiance levels.
