12W Solar Panel & WP40D Water Pump KIT
1. OVERVIEW
1) The solar pump is designed for outdoor or indoor fountain use, and is powered by a
solar panel. In order to make full use of solar energy, the solar panel needs to be placed
in the sunlight with its solar cells facing the sun as much as possible.
2) The pump operates at its full performance when the solar panel generates more power
than it demands, the output power of the solar panel depends on sunlight intensity and
the incident angle at which sunlight strikes the panel surface.
3) The pump has the build-in function of dry-run protection. The dry-run protection function
is provided by two sensor points on one side of the pump housing (referring to the right
photo). The pump works if both of the points are submerged in water. If either or both
points emerge out of water, the pump stops working.
4) The latest DC brushless motor technology such as locked rotor protection and overheat
protection is introduced in the pump design and manufacturing, so that the pump has
high efficiency and long service life.
5) The pump flow rate can be adjusted by the flow valve (referring to the right photo).

1) Solar panel 2) Pump
3. ASSEMBLING
1) Unpack all components carefully.
2) To install the solar panel on the ground, find a sunny place that is shadow-free all day long and install the solar
panel by the ground spike.

3) For the application of pumping a small water feature, install the pump as per the instruction given by the
relevant party.
4) For the application of pumping a spray fountain, install the pump following the steps below:
a) Pick one of the 2 fountain nozzles and join it with a proper number of extension tubes. The nozzles
available can produce 2 different spray patterns.
b) Install the extension tube supported fountain nozzle onto the pump outlet with the help of the tube
adapter.
c) Fix the pump at the bottom of a small shallow pond or a feature pool etc. It is best to keep the pump off
Sensor points
the pond base to avoid drawing the pond waste into the pump which will eventually develop into pump
blockage. Use an underframe or similar to elevate the pump.
d) To maximize the visible fountain spout length, the fountain head should be positioned just above the
water surface by using the extension tubes as shown in the below figure. If these 4 pcs of extension
tubes are all used and the fountain head is still immerged in the water, please uplift the pump body
somehow.

e) The sizes and shapes of different spray fountains are shown as below:
5) The solar pump is now ready to work. Please make sure to keep the pump fully underwater, then electrically
connect the pump to the solar panel and tighten the screw for water protection.
4. CAUTIONS
1) Any altering of the product itself or changing of the components voids warranty.
2) Do not connect the pump to any AC power supply directly; it's ONLY for DC power.
3) Operate the pump in water only (never above 40℃), especially keep it away from flammable liquids.
4) Do not let the pump run dry.
