Tuhorse Pumps 4" 500W Solar Submersible Bore Pump

A troubleshooting step that may save extracting pump from borehole. If suspected run dry, and still not working after a recharge time. It is possible that the rubber stator sleeve has dried, & gripped the pump helical rotor tightly enough to prevent rotation. Reverse/swap pump power supply terminals in the control box for a very short duration for… Read more
the pump running green leds.. this will effectively break the seizure by unwinding it loose. Dont run backwards too long as risk of unscrewing helical rotor from shaft... if ever dissassembly of pump, rubber grease inside the elastomer rubber sleeve ensures less likelihood of this for at least two years aggressive water...
These are great quality pumps. Simple install and easy to troubleshoot if the need arises. After sale service and support is EXCELLENT!!!! A rare quality these days. I would not consider any other solar setup. Suits our needs perfectly on our remote Central Qld cattle station Show details

The bottom motor casing/shell circlip ring also corrodes/crumbles.

A great solar pump – We have purchased tuhorse brand 4" 500W solar pump package since Mar 2103. We use it on a 8acre block to stock feed water and irrigation and does well.

They are easy to install and the… Read more · 1
bore low level and tank high level switches make control pf the trough level and protection of the pump easy
