Installation guide - Battery/solar powered water pump
Separate submersible pump manual for capabilities of pump only

Connecting it all together
Use a leisure battery of minimum 75ah. Some batteries may need the handle detaching to
allow room for the crocodile clips. Ensure the battery is fully charged as batteries with low
voltage can affect the performance of the pump. A secondary battery can be connected to
the external battery terminals.
Connect the hose to the outlet on the
pump and secure with the jubilee clip
Immerse the pump fully in the water ensuring
the mesh inlet remains fully submerged. The
optional oat will add some buoyancy and
help in keeping the inlet clear of silt.
TIPS: Secure the pump in place with a stake to keep it in the best position. To keep the
mesh clear of debris, place the pump in a bucket or basket of pea grit.

Drill the hole for the hose to tank tting (22mm on drill bit) above your high water level. Se-
cure the hose to the tting using the hose clip. Securely x the tank tting into the trough.
Position the control box near to your water trough. Run the hose and lead back to the box
from the water source. Use the tie wraps to secure the lead along the length of the hose if
desired. Connect to the right two terminals (brown wire to
red terminal and blue wire to black terminal).
TIP : Position the trough so that the control box can be
placed behind a fence, protecting it from the animal.
The oat switch turns off the pump as the water rises and the switch hinges upwards. Drill
the hole at 16mm. The switch should be positioned so that the high water level required to
turn off the pump (x) is below the incoming water pipe (y). Connect the switch wires to the
left two terminals on the front of the control box (not positive/negative specic).

The pump is ready to go.
Turn on by pressing the
clear switch.
The tank will ll until the oat switch cuts the power to the pump, once the high water level
has been reached. After the initial lling It is recommended that the battery is recharged fully
before the animals begin to use the trough. This can be done via an independent battery
charger or the solar panel.
If you are using a solar panel, connect
to the positive and negative terminals
to the corresponding wires from the
solar panel. The pump can work with
an array of up to 300w
1: Check battery. Batteries that are not fully charged can drastically reduce the performance
of the pump. If you have a fully charged battery to hand, swap them rst to see if this solves
the problem. Check the battery connection leads to the box are connected correctly.
2: Solar panel. The older type have a regulator on the back of the panel with red and green
lights to indicate if power is being transferred to the battery. If not, use a multi- meter to check
voltage at the end of the leads.
3: Float switch. Try to ascertain if moving it by hand will activate the pump. Obviously one
person need to be at the tank and one at the pump location. Check the box is working in this
regard by making a connection across the terminals with a screwdriver. If you suspect the
box is the problem, put the lead directly onto the battery to see if the pump will work.
4: Pump: If the pump in not working directly onto the battery, disconnect the lead extension
at the waterproof connector. Check for water ingress. Try the pump on the battery without
the lead extension. Make sure the pump is clear of debris.
5: Lead length: The lead represents a load on the pump which reduces performance. If the
pump is installed in a static location and has excess lead coiled up, cut the lead to length to
improve performance.

The switch features a three colour
indicator showing the condition of
the battery. A green light shows that
the battery is in the best condition.
If you are using a solar
panel, a green light indicates that
your panel is efciently replacing
the power consumed
by the pump.
