PumpWatcher
- PUMPWATCHER – SOLAR POWER FOR ANY PUMP, ANYWHERE
What is PumpWatcher?
The Apricus-Aqua PumpWatcher is a smarter, easier way to power your existing water pump using solar energy — without the need for expensive new equipment or specialist installers.
Unlike other solar systems that require special pumps or motors, the Apricus-Aqua works with what you already have. It turns solar panel power into the right kind of power for standard single or three-phase motors, including both borehole and pressure pumps. You don’t need to change your pump, rewire your setup, or call in a solar expert.
This intelligent controller protects your pump and motor from damage. It gently starts your system, avoids overloads, and keeps things running for as long as there’s enough sun. If anything goes wrong, the drive will shut down only when necessary — and restart automatically once things are safe again. Easy-to-understand symbols show the system’s status at a glance.
It’s built for real-world farming, residential, and rural conditions — no fancy or fragile components, just smart technology that keeps your water flowing. You can power the system using only solar, or combine solar with grid or generator backup if needed.
Whether you’re pumping water to a tank, irrigating crops, or just want a reliable pressure system for your home, the Apricus-Aqua Solar Drive is a plug-and-play solution that saves you time, money, and stress.
No hassle. No hidden costs. Just reliable water pumping from the power of the sun.
