1 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a LORENTZ PUMP. We set
a new standard for quality and economy in solar
pumping. It incorporates the best solar pump technolo-
gies that were very expensive until its introduction in
2002.
PS150 BOOST is a highly efficient pump system
which provides city water pressure, anywhere. It is
economical for domestic water supply, (drip-) irrigation,
livestock, water transfer to remote places and many
other applications. It is a surface pump which cannot
be submersed.
The pump of PS150 BOOST is a positive displace-
ment vane type pump.
The PS150 BOOST brushless DC motors are specially
made for this system. The motor is using very ad-
vanced raw earth magnet technology, hand made
wiring for highest copper density and does not need
wearing brushes. This results in an exceptional high
efficiency with low temperature dissipation.
PS150 BOOST can either be used in a battery system
with voltages of 12, 24V or alternatively it can be
operated as a solar direct system using the same
Controller PS150.
The solar battery is charged up during daylight hours
using the integrated charger of the PS150 controller.
The charger works effectively during reduced sunlight
conditions when direct pump operation is not possible.
The energy stored in the battery is available to operate
the pump at any time, day or night and during periods
of bad weather.
Extended bad weather periods with water demands of
3
up to 10m
per day will be reliably bridged due to the
high system efficiency even with low capacity batteries.
The pump is manufactured from non-corrosive
material (stainless steel / brass / aluminum).
Before you begin Check the model
numbers of all the components of your
system, and verify that they are the items
that you ordered. Also check against the
PUMP specifications and performance
charts (end of this manual) to be sure the
system is appropriate for your application. If you think
you may have the wrong pump for your application, call
your supplier immediately.
Please fill in the SYSTEM REPORT. This will be essen-
tial information if any problems occur.
