1. Introduction

Dear Custumer, thank you for purchasing the solar pump kit. 

With this solar pump kit you purchased a product manufactured according to the 

current state of technology. 

This product fulfils all requirements of the valid European and nati-

onal regulations. The conformity was proved. The relevant declara-

tions and documentation are deposited with the manufacturer. 

To maintain this state and guarantee a safe operation, you as the user will have to 

follow this operating manual!

2. Safety Instructions

   

- In case of damages caused by not following 

  

  this operating manual, the warranty rights 

 

  will expire! We exclude liability for any 

 

  consequential damages!

 

- We exclude liability for property or 

 

  personal damages caused by inappropriate

  

  handling or not following the safety instructions. 

 

 

- In these cases any guarantee rights will expire.

Due to safety and admission reasons (CE) it is not allowed to arbitrarily reconstruct 

and/or change the solar pump kit. 

Therefore, please keep to the operating manual. 

The accident prevention rules of the association of the industrial trade cooperative 

association for electric plants and working material are to be considered in industrial 

environments.

3. Function and intended Use

-  The pump system is designed for the outdoor use in garden ponds. The pump 

delivers water depending on the solar radiation onto the solar module. 

-  Direct solar radiation is required for the function of the pump.

 

-  The pump system is particularly characterized by its ease of assembly. Tools 

are not required for the assembly and installation. For the start-up, the system 

requires the full solar radiation onto the solar module. 

-  The pump must not be used for the delivery of drinking water. 

-  The device does not have any on-off switch. The solar pump can pump water (the 

provided that the corresponding solar radiation is available) as soon as the pump 

and the solar module are connected to each other.    

-  In order to avoid a disturbing dabbling, simply slightly telescope the ascending 

pipe. 

-  In order to ensure a safe interruption of the delivery, it is required to disconnect the 

cable connection between the  die solar module and the pump.

4. Assembly and Start-up

The pump system consists of the following parts: 

1 piece solar module including retainer, 1 piece submersible pump including 5 m 

connecting cable, 4 ascending pipes and 2 water nozzles. 

1.   Completely unroll the connecting cable at the pump. 

2.  Attach the ascending pipes onto the pump and then attach one of the desired 

sprinklers onto the ascending pipes. 

3.   Put the pump onto some stones in the pond. Please avoid a place directly at the 

bottom of the pond because there, a particularly large amount of dirt is suctioned 

by the pump which would lead to a fast contamination of the pump.   

4.   Now connect the plug of the pump with the socket of the solar module and tighten 

lid.

5.  Position the solar module at a sunny shadow-free place facing south. For this 

purpose, please use the enclosed module retainer.  

Note: 

The plug is protected against reverse polarity; please do not apply force when 

plugging it in. The glass of the solar module is fragile. 

Caution: risk of injury! 

A broken module can no longer be repaired and 

has

 to be 

disposed of in an environmentally sound way.  . 

Note: 

For further assembly and care instructions, please see the manual of the water 

pump.

5. Care and Maintenance

In order to maintain the performance of the pump it is required to occasionally, 

depending on the water contamination, rinse the pump and its parts with warm water.   

For instructions regarding care and maintenance of the pump, please see the manual 

of the pump.

Occasionally wipe the solar module with a soft and slightly wet cloth. 

Note:

 Before carrying out work at the pump, please disconnect the plug connection 

between the pump and the solar module in order to prevent any accidental start during 

the ongoing work.
