We now offer waterpumps powered by Solar energy. Solar water pumps are an innovative solution for sustainable water management. They offer two substantial applications: stand-alone systems for pumping water in off-grid locations, and hybrid systems that combine solar energy with grid power to maximize efficiency and reduce operating costs. With the Pentax FSP solar pump system, you can enjoy reliable water pumping with minimal maintenance and long operating life.
Advantages of Solar Pumping Systems
Long life span without batteries – the system is designed to work directly with solar panels, avoiding costly battery replacements.
Minimal maintenance – built for durability and trouble-free operation.
Eco-friendly and sustainable – reduce carbon footprint while saving on electricity bills.

Easy Installation with QBOX Protection
Installation is simple and straightforward. The photovoltaic panels, sized according to the pump power, are connected to the inverter through the dedicated QBOX accessory. This prewired safety box ensures fast and secure connection of the PV system and protects against atmospheric discharges.
QBOX 230–400
QBOX 230 – designed for a single string of panels with a maximum input voltage of 600VDC.
QBOX 400 – designed for multiple strings, with up to 1000VDC per string.
Smart Inverter Configuration
At first startup, you simply set the motor’s power and voltage. The inverter automatically updates the preset data. You can also configure the direction of rotation and the minimum frequency to prevent dry running (when the pump operates without drawing water). This ensures safe and efficient operation of the entire system.
Daily Automatic Operation
Once configured, the system runs automatically:
Starts every morning when sunlight is available.
Operates at the maximum possible frequency throughout the day.
Shuts down in the evening and restarts the next day.
Hybrid Operation for Continuous Performance
In hybrid mode, when solar energy is not sufficient, the inverter automatically supplements power from the grid. This ensures the pump always operates at the required minimum frequency. When the PV panels generate enough energy again, the system switches back to solar power seamlessly.
New Model Highlight: FSP3
The latest addition to the range is the FSP3 model. It comes with hybrid operation as standard and offers:
Support for motors from 80 to 230Vac.
Single-phase current input.
Capability to drive pumps up to 3 HP.
This makes the FSP3 a versatile solution for agricultural, residential, and industrial applications.
Applications of Solar Pumps
Agriculture – reliable irrigation in rural and off-grid areas.
Drinking water supply – delivering clean water to farms and communities.
Commercial and industrial – water transfer systems that lower energy costs.
Solar pumps represent a reliable, sustainable, and cost-saving solution for modern water pumping. With models like the FSP3 and accessories such as the QBOX 230–400, Pentax ensures safe, efficient, and continuous operation for any application.
