Grundfos Solar Pump SQFLEX 8A-3

This solar pump is designed for continuous or intermittent operation and is especially suitable for water supply in farms, irrigation systems, ponds, lakes, etc.

The SQFlex Solar Pump allows connection to different power sources, from solar panels, wind turbines, batteries, generators, and even the electrical grid.

Submersible pumps for renewable energies with built-in inverter.

The motor has been specially developed for the SQFlex system and is designed according to the permanent magnet principle with a built-in electronic unit.

The Grundfos SQFlex pumps can be very useful in places where we need the pump to operate even at night, as we can connect it to different power sources, such as wind turbines, batteries, generators, or even the electrical grid.

Another advantage it has is the built-in dry well probe in the pump itself. It allows us to protect the installation and the motor in case our well runs out of water. When the water level is lower than the dry well probe, the pump disconnects. It reconnects automatically when the water level exceeds it and remains above the probe for 5 minutes.

In a horizontal installation, it is necessary for the water level to be above the pump, and the probe must be at least 30 to 60 cm above the pump to ensure protection against dry operation.

Grundfos pump performance curves

Integrated Protections of the Grundfos SQFLEX 8A-3 Pump.

For high or low voltage:

When the voltage to the pump is unstable, undesirable voltage "jumps" can occur. The pump will stop if the voltage falls outside the operating range. The motor will start automatically when the voltage is within the Grundfos SQFLEX Pump operating range.

This can also occur due to an unstable power source or faulty installation.

Additionally, the segmented motor stator significantly contributes to high efficiency.

Overload protection:

The motor will stop for 10 seconds. After this time, the pump will attempt to start again automatically. Overload protection prevents the motor from being damaged, so no external protection is needed for the motor of the Grundfos SQFLEX Pump.

High-temperature protection:

The operating temperature of the Grundfos SQFLEX Pump is above 85°C. The motor will automatically disconnect when the temperature drops to 75°C, and the motor of the Grundfos SQFLEX Pump will restart automatically.

The special features of the Grundfos SQFLEX Pump ensure easy installation without the need for unnecessary external protections.

Advantages of the Grundfos SQFLEX Pump.

The built-in electronic unit provides a series of advantages to the SQFlex system when compared to other pumps on the market. The main one is the built-in microprocessor with MPPT.

Thanks to the MPPT function, the pump's operating point is continuously optimized according to the available input power. MPPT is only available for pumps connected to direct current (DC).

Reliability

The MSF 3 motor has been designed and developed with high reliability in mind, highlighting the following characteristics:

  • Carbon/ceramic bearings.
  • Excellent starting characteristics.
  • Various protection functions.
  • Reduced weight ensures easy handling.
  • Installation in 3", 4" or larger wells.
  • Only one switch is needed, no external accessories for starting.

The MSF 3 motor is a permanent magnet motor (PM motor) with higher efficiency within the power range compared to a conventional asynchronous motor.

It is protected against power source transients according to EN/IEC 61000-4-5 (6 kV). In areas with high lightning intensity, external lightning protection is recommended.

It has an efficient internal circulation system that removes heat from the rotor, stator, and bearings, ensuring optimal motor operation conditions.

The wide voltage range for its operation allows the motor to be suitable for any voltage between 30-300 VDC or 90-240 VAC. This feature makes installation and sizing truly easy.

At El Almacén fotovoltaico, you can purchase the inverter separately, or buy a kit for your photovoltaic self-consumption installation along with solar panels, structure, panels, wiring, and other accessories. You can also hire Enneo engineering services for legalization, certificates, and grant processing.
