Note: Battery operation provides extended pump use during cloudy periods or evenings. While the maximum head height is reduced to 1.3m on battery power, this still provides excellent performance for most pond and water feature applications. The optional battery backup (6V 4Ah LiFePO4) ensures consistent operation even in less-than-ideal conditions.
Optional Battery System (Recommended)
While the Solar Pond Pump SE 700 works effectively with direct solar power, we strongly recommend adding the optional battery system for optimal performance and consistent water circulation throughout the day.
Why We Recommend Battery Backup
Extended Operation: Continues pumping during cloudy weather and into the evening
Consistent Performance: Provides reliable water flow when sunlight fluctuates
Weather Independence: Maintains operation during overcast conditions
Long Battery Life: Premium LiFePO4 technology ensures extended service life and reliable performance
Enhanced Pond Health: Continuous water circulation helps maintain oxygen levels

Quick Installation Guide
Step 1: Place pump in water on stable platform
Step 2: Connect pump to battery box
Step 3: Connect battery box to solar panel
Step 4: Position solar panel in direct sunlight
Step 5: Select spray head, turn on, and enjoy!
1. Before You Begin
Component Verification
Inspect solar panel for cracks or damage
Verify pump unit is operational
Check cables for fraying or loose connections
Confirm all mounting hardware is included
Ensure battery box is intact and dry
Site Assessment
Choose location with full sun exposure
Calculate total head height and pump distance
Ensure accessibility for ongoing maintenance
Identify safe, dry battery box location
Avoid shaded areas from trees or structures
2. Critical Safety Guidelines
Never place battery box in water or pond
Keep battery box upright at all times
Ensure ventilation around battery box
Avoid placement in flooding-prone areas
Do not cover battery box
Maintain drip loops in all cables
3. Installation Process
Solar Panel Positioning
Mount securely using provided hardware
Face panel south for maximum exposure
Winter angle: 60°
Spring/Autumn angle: 40°
Summer angle: 20–30°
Check mounting points are secure
Pump Placement
Place higher in water for improved performance
Avoid bottom placement to prevent clogging
Use a stable platform or floating device
Upturned flower pots work as platforms
Secure pump to avoid movement
Install suitable outlet fitting
Battery Box Installation
Keep dry and upright to avoid damage
Elevate at least 15cm off the ground

6. Need Help?
For product-specific guidance, troubleshooting, and technical advice, please see the expert support section below.
Discover the operational principles and realistic performance expectations of your energy-efficient water pump system throughout the seasons. This guide helps you understand your system's capabilities and how to maximize its potential.
1. Operating Principles
Energy Collection
The panel captures sunlight and converts it to electrical energy
Energy powers the pump directly or charges the battery (in backup models)
System activation depends on light intensity and system type
Performance varies significantly with weather conditions
System Types
Direct Systems: Operate only with sufficient direct sunlight
Battery-Backed Systems: Store energy for more consistent operation
Hybrid Systems: Combine immediate operation with energy storage
Each type offers different benefits depending on your needs
2. Realistic Performance Expectations
Direct Systems Performance
Operation strictly dependent on available sunlight
Flow varies continuously with passing clouds
May start and stop multiple times on partly cloudy days
Strongest performance during midday hours with direct sun
No operation during evening or overcast conditions
Battery-Backed Systems Performance
More consistent operation throughout the day
Continues running during brief cloudy periods
Provides operation after sunset (1–8 hours depending on model)
