Solar Power & Filtration System
The system uses a 40 W solar panel to power an integrated DC brushless pump, delivering steady circulation for filtration. Mechanical and biological filtration stages work together to remove debris and support a balanced pond environment.
Solar Panel
High-efficiency polycrystalline panel designed for outdoor use and consistent energy capture in suitable sunlight.
Filter Media Options
Compatible with zeolite or gravel media to support biological filtration and water clarity.
System Flexibility
Suitable for pond filtration, circulation, and decorative applications where flow and head height requirements are met.
MPPT Battery Backup (Optional)
Selected configurations support an optional MPPT battery backup system. Energy collected during sunny periods can be stored and used when light levels drop, helping to stabilise system operation during changing conditions.
Exclusive Revolutionary MPPT Technology - Features and Benefits
PowerBee Ltd proudly introduces the world's first garden solar pumps with Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology - a breakthrough previously only available in industrial solar systems. The battery for this pump includes our own patent pending MPPT system, which automatically optimizes solar energy conversion to deliver 30% more efficiency than conventional solar pumps, ensuring stronger performance in all weather conditions.
Exclusive MPPT optimisation for maximum efficiency
Advanced Solar Optimization > 30%
Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) ensures peak efficiency in all weather conditions.
Up to 30% higher energy conversion compared to standard solar systems.
Optimized performance even during (in season) cloudier or lower-light periods.
Extended Performance and Reliability
Faster battery charging for uninterrupted operation.
Extended operating hours for pumps, aerators, and fountains.
Reliable functionality throughout the day and night.
Innovative Technology, Industry First
First to bring MPPT technology to garden and pond solar systems.
Designed for solar pumps, oxygenators, and fountains of all sizes.
Sets a new standard for efficiency and performance in the industry.
How the Filtration System Works
Mechanical Filtration
Foam filter stages capture solid debris, reducing waste build-up within the pond.
Biological Filtration
Filter media encourage beneficial bacteria that help convert waste products into less harmful compounds.
Performance Characteristics
When correctly installed, the system provides a maximum flow rate of up to 1400 litres per hour with a maximum pumping head of 2.0 metres. Actual performance will vary depending on sunlight and installation conditions.
