Description

Overview

The well probe is a water-level sensor that you lower into the borehole and connect to a 3HR or 3HRI solar pump controller. When the water drops too low it tells the controller, and the pump switches off before it can run dry and damage itself.

A solar pump runs whenever the sun is up, whether or not the borehole has recovered, and dry running is one of the quickest ways to kill a pump end and motor. The probe costs a fraction of that repair. It suits every 3HR and 3HRI controller, so you can fit it to an existing system or add it to a new one when you build the installation.

Key features

  • Switches the pump off when the borehole water level drops too low
  • Fits all 3HR and 3HRI solar borehole pump controllers
  • Sits in the borehole, where the water level is actually measured
  • Helps protect the pump end and motor from dry-running damage
  • Simple add-on for new and existing solar pump installations

Where it works

Fit it on any solar borehole where the yield is marginal or the water table drops in the dry season, which describes a lot of ground in Limpopo, the Northern Cape and the Free State. It is also worth adding on stock-water boreholes that nobody checks every day. Confirm that your controller is a 3HR or 3HRI before you order. The hybrid solar pump inverter already has dry-running protection of its own, and the solar regulator is a different product. See the full solar pump range for the rest.

Questions about this product

Will the well probe work with my solar pump controller?

It is made for 3HR and 3HRI solar pump controllers and suits all of them. If your system uses a different controller, check with us before ordering. The TGP hybrid solar pump inverter in our range has dry-running protection built in, so it does not need this probe. Send us your controller model and we will confirm.

Do I need a probe if my borehole has never run dry?

It is cheap insurance. Yields change with rainfall, neighbouring boreholes and the pump setting depth, and a solar pump keeps running all day. One dry-running event can ruin a pump end and motor that cost far more than the probe, so it is worth fitting one on every 3HR or 3HRI system.

Do you deliver a well probe to Upington?

Yes. Kamano delivers with its own trucks from Polokwane to Upington and all nine provinces in 1 to 3 days. At about 0.8 kg shipping weight this item falls in the up to 30 kg (R550) band, and orders of R20,000 or more (VAT incl.) go free. It ships as a small parcel, so add it to a pump order and save on delivery.
