MPPT Solar Water Pump Drive

FU9000SI MPPT Solar Pump Inverter

FU9000SI converts PV power into controlled AC output for a water pump. MPPT follows the available solar power while the drive adjusts motor speed. Water-level inputs can stop the pump when the well is dry or the tank is full.

PV Input Parameters

Parameter 220 V class 380 V class
Applicable suffix SS2 / S2 4 / 9
Maximum DC input voltage 450 V 800 V
Recommended MPP voltage 330 V 550 V
Start voltage 200 V 300 V
Minimum operating voltage 150 V 250 V
Recommended PV input range 200-450 V DC 300-750 V DC
Calculate cold-weather string Voc below the maximum DC input. Keep hot-weather Vmp inside the operating range. Use the module datasheet and local temperature limits for the final series and parallel layout.

PV and AC Input Logic

PV input

Connect the array through DC breaker Q1 to the positive and negative PV terminals. Parallel strings require a PV combiner box.

AC backup

Connect mains power through an external interlocked contactor circuit. The drive relay controls the contactor coil. The drive does not contain a built-in ATS.

Input priority

P15.32 selects automatic, forced mains or forced PV operation. The factory setting is forced PV.

Setting or condition Response Published value
P15.32 = 0 Automatic PV/mains selection through the external switching circuit Automatic
P15.32 = 1 Use mains input Forced mains
P15.32 = 2 Use PV input Forced PV; factory setting
PV falls below the switch threshold or weak-light state Relay can transfer the external contactor to mains P15.33 default 70 V
PV rises above the recovery threshold Relay can return the external contactor to PV after the wake delay P15.34 default 100 V; P15.24 default 300 s
Forced-mains digital input is active The terminal command overrides P15.32 S1 / function 42
Use electrically and mechanically interlocked switching components. Do not connect PV and mains to the same input path without the specified transfer circuit. Switching is controlled; it is not described as seamless.

Protection and Pump Alarms

Protection Code What it monitors Drive response
Dry source / underload A-LL / LL Pump current and load condition Alarm or stop after the set delay; restart follows the configured recovery delay
Tank full A-tF High-water switch at S2 Stops after the set delay and waits for the level condition to clear
Source empty A-tL Low-water switch at S3 Stops after the set delay and waits for water recovery
Level probe fault tSF Hydraulic probe circuit Reports the fault and stops when probe-fault protection is enabled
PV reverse polarity PINV PV input polarity Blocks normal operation; correct the PV polarity
PV overcurrent PVOC PV/boost input current Trips and requires array, load and wiring checks
PV overvoltage PVOV PV input voltage Trips; reduce the number of modules in series
PV undervoltage PVLV PV input voltage and available array power Stops or waits for sufficient solar input
Weak light A-LS Available PV power Sleeps and starts again when sunlight recovers
Motor overcurrent OC1 / OC2 / OC3 Motor output during acceleration, deceleration or steady speed Current limiting or trip according to the fault condition
DC bus overvoltage OV1 / OV2 / OV3 DC bus during acceleration, deceleration or steady speed Trips and records the operating stage
DC bus undervoltage UV DC bus voltage Stops until the supply condition is corrected
Motor / drive overload OL1 / OL2 Motor and inverter thermal load Trips to prevent sustained overload

Control Terminals

Terminal Function Signal or rating Typical connection
+24V / COM Auxiliary supply and common 24 V DC ±10%, 200 mA maximum Digital inputs or compatible sensors

S3 / COM Source-empty input Normally closed by default Low-water level switch
S4 / COM Single-/two-phase algorithm selection High level selects single-phase Pump phase algorithm command
AI1 Keypad potentiometer input Analog reference Local analog setting
AI2 Analog input 0-10 V or 0-20 mA by jumper Compatible level or process transmitter
AI3 Analog input -10 to +10 V Compatible bipolar analog signal
RO1A / RO1B / RO1C Relay NO / NC / common 3 A at 250 V AC; 1 A at 30 V DC Alarm or AC contactor-coil control
RS485+ / RS485- Modbus RTU Two-wire RS485 PLC, gateway or optional remote module
422 TX / RX Boost-module communication Dedicated communication link Matching boost module
No dedicated pressure-feedback terminal is identified. AI2 and AI3 accept analog signals, but pressure control requires a confirmed transmitter type, signal range and parameter set.

Wiring

PV to pump

PV array → DC breaker Q1 → FU9000SI (+/-) → U/V/W → pump

PV with AC backup

PV array + mains supply → external interlocked contactor circuit → FU9000SI → pump

Level switches

Tank high-level switch → S2/COM. Well low-level switch → S3/COM.

FU9000SI standard wiring with PV input, water pump, well sensor and tank sensor
Fit a Type II DC surge protective device when the PV cable exceeds 10 m. Review an output reactor when the motor cable exceeds 50 m. For complete PV, inverter, pump, sensor and storage configuration, see our solar pumping system guide.

Enclosure: IP20 for indoor, conditioned installation. IP65 is not covered by this specification. Request a separate model-specific drawing and certificate if an outdoor IP65 unit is required.

Installation Conditions

Temperature

Operate from -10°C to +50°C. Above 40°C, reduce output by 2% for each 1°C rise.

Cooling

Keep the cooling path open. Allow space for air movement and keep the drive away from direct solar heat.

External protection

Size DC isolation, fuses, surge protection, AC breakers, contactors, cables and grounding for the final circuit.

FU9000SI FAQ

Can FU9000SI run a single-phase pump?

Yes, with an SS2 configuration and the correct pump wiring. S2 is used for single-phase input with three-phase output. Confirm the motor voltage, phase, current and capacitor arrangement before selection.

Does FU9000SI switch between PV and mains automatically?

Automatic selection is available through the drive relay and a correctly wired external interlocked contactor circuit. It is not a built-in ATS.

Is the FU9000SI IP65?

This product specification states IP20 for indoor, conditioned installation. An outdoor enclosure or a separately documented IP65 model is required for exposed sites.

How should I choose the PV string?

Check cold-weather Voc against the maximum input voltage. Check hot-weather Vmp against the operating range. Then size array power from pump duty and the local solar resource.

What information is needed for a quotation?

Send the pump nameplate, voltage, phase, rated current, head, flow, location, panel datasheet, cable length, water-level controls and required AC backup method.

Confirm the FU9000SI Configuration

Send the pump nameplate and PV module datasheet. We will check the voltage class, output current, PV string, frame size and switching circuit.
