Solar Submersible Pond Pump Kit 5200 L/h – 100W Panel Array

This is the largest of the submersible solar pond kits, and the one to reach for when a smaller pump would simply be swamped by the volume of water. A 100 W array across two panels drives it, so a big feature at the far end of a property costs nothing to run and needs no cable trenched out to it.

What it is built for

Spray fountains, garden water features and waterfall returns on larger ponds, plus aeration where surface movement is doing real work rather than just looking good. Outlet adaptors for 26, 32 and 38 mm pipe are included, so it drops into most existing plumbing.

Built to run unattended

• Brushless motor with locked-rotor protection, maintenance free in normal use.
• Ceramic shaft for steady, quiet running.
• Dry-run protection cuts power if the water level falls away.
• Low working voltage throughout, which keeps it electrically safe around water.
• Certified to RoHS, REACH, CE and UKCA.

• Operating voltage: 18 V DC
• Solar array: 100 W total (2 × 50 W panels)
• Outlet options: 26 mm / 32 mm / 38 mm
• Pump cable: 5 m

In the box

• 18 V DC fountain pump, 50 W
• Two 50 W solar panels
• 5 m cable
• Ground spikes for the panels

Worth knowing before you order

• Daylight only. No battery is supplied, so the pump runs while the sun is on the panels and stops after dark.
• Keep the filter case clean. At this flow rate the intake collects debris quickly, and a blocked case is the fastest route to a dead pump.
• Two panels need two clear spots. Partial shade on either one drags the whole array down, so scout the position before committing.
