Mac3 HydroController Solar is an inverters/variable frequency drives for use with off-grid solar power systems.

CLEARANCE SALE: Now less than half price! 

This The HydroController Solar is suitable for use with any ordinary 400VAC three phase water pumps up to 15A. Single phase pumps are not supported.

HydroController Solar adjusts the speed of the pump to match water demand. Additionally the speed will be varied if necessary to match the available power from the solar panels, continuously using all available solar energy until the required system pressure is reached.This negates the need for battery storage.

All of the operating parameters are customisable through the onboard interface with LCD display.

Ideal for remote agricultural use (irrigation, trough filling etc) and controlling borehole pumps.

It can also have a pressure sensor attached, if needed, and can supply troughs directly, or can be used without one to supply a tank with overflow.

Air cooled. Designed to be wall mounted.

If this unit is to be installed with a cable length of more than 20 metres between the HydroController and a pump, it is advisable that a Mac3 ACL Filter be added to eliminate harmonics created by high frequency reflectance in long cable lengths. Please ask when ordering to discuss if this would be necessary for a particular project.
