About the Vocuse 10m Irrigation System Solar water Pump

The Vocuse 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:

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.
