Solar Powered Submersible Water Pumps from Advanced Power Inc. Introducing the Ranch Pump.

This is a picture of our Ranch Pump model RP4, prior to adding the protective coating, intake screen or wire. It's purpose is to show the quality CNC machined aluminum housing and parts. It's a very impressive and durable piece of water pumping equipment


   We couldn't be more excited to be offering you one of the finest solar pumps on the market.     
                                                          
                                    Meet the Ranch Pump! 

25 years of solar pump manufacturing experience went into designing this state of the art, aluminum housed solar powered submersible pump. It has one of the strongest and most durable motors on the market. Our unique internal driver/controller makes this pump run extremely efficiently which means you save money on buying solar power.  To get the same amount of water our competitors normally need to sell you a lot more solar power to get the job done with their less efficient pump styles. 

Since our controller is built into the pump, that also means you save on the expense of having to buy an additional above ground power controller as you normally need with other solar pumps of this style. 

We are so confident and impressed with this Ranch Pump series that we are offering a 5 year warranty.
(This pump comes with a 3 year standard manufacturers warranty and an additional 2 year prorated warranty can be achieved if you fill out the registration card and send it in with a copy of your receipt within 30 days of purchase, no additional charge! )


These pumps are also great for pumping from ponds, rivers and streams when no freezing weather is present.

   These RP series aluminum solar pumps come with a 3 yr. full and 2 year additional pro-rated warranty. 

Factory rebuildable. Designed CNC Aluminum parts. Positive displacement solar pumps. Lightweight and durable.  Temporary run dry capability. Come standard with 100ft. of wire attached so no under water splice is needed. (due to our hard coating process actual product appearance or color may vary)
RP4 Pumps require a 5" diameter or larger well casing. Max lift 150ft.


Keep in mind when we refer to lift we mean static water level. Your  solar well pump can be set deeper than max lift if it's in the water. Lift does not begin until you come out of the water. EX: Well 220ft. deep total, but water at 80 feet from the gound. If pump is set at 120ft. pump is still only lifting 80 if that is where water level maintains. Do not submerge pumps greater than 50ft. in the water.


Our aluminum solar pumps are a product of 25 years of solar water pump manufacturing experience.We have taken what we have learned over that time, what worked and what didn't, and we have created for our customers our best solar pump ever! 


These solar submersible well pumps are the latest in solar pump technology, with some of the best state of the art features on the market. Such as not requiring the use of an additional controller between the pump and the solar panel to control the voltage or drive the pump motor. This means less expense to you the consumer, and one less component to cause you grief should it fail. Most of our competition requires you purchase additional solar pump controls that can cost up to $400 in addition to the pump price.

We do "recommend" our ALC advanced level controller, but that is to monitor the water level in your tank and save wear and tear on your pump when the tank is full, it is not required.  When used however, it can add years of life to your pump by causing the pump to shut off when the tank is full and not waste run hours on the pump when water is not needed.


What's the big deal with aluminum?  Aluminum dissipates heat over 1,000 times better than our old PVC pumps, and much better than most other stainless steel housed pumps on the market.

Why is this important? It's important because motors, mechanical parts such as bearings, and electronics survive better and longer in a cooler environment. The reason our pumps can run dry is because they are not water cooled but are in a sealed can that does not allow water in the motor housing, those motors working as they do in that environment cause heat to build up inside the can. Our new aluminum pump housings dissipate that heat at a much higher rate and keep the pump motor working in a more friendly environment for the motor.

Please feel free to view our website for complete information on this and all of our other pump models. We hope we have one to suit you and your water pumping needs.

Explanation of the Ranch Pump 5 year warranty. 


Explanation of the Ranch Pump extended prorated warranty. The RP comes with a 3 year factory warranty for defects in workmanship and materials. An additional 2 year prorated warranty can be obtained by filling out the registration form and sending it and a copy of your purchase receipt to the factory within 30 days of purchase. 


How the two year additional prorated warranty will work: If after the three year original warranty period expires the pump should fail due to a cause deemed a warranty item by the factory, then Advanced Power Inc. will give the customer a new pump for the cost of $10.00 dollars per month for the number of months the pump was in service.

EX: If a customer has a pump for 48 months and a warranty item causes the pump to fail, the customer could purchase a new pump for the cost of only $480.00 as opposed to full retail which on a RP4 at this time is $1,130.00.

All other pumps come with a "repair or replace" type warranty, but the Ranch Pump comes with a new replacement warranty while new supplies last.

Solar Powered Led Lighting Systems for Portable Lighting




Advanced Power Inc. is extremely excited to offer you our new solar powered lighting kits for hunters, home owners, campers and farmers and ranchers or just about anyone who may need portable remote lighting anywhere.

These are some absolutely incredible and extremely convenient portable solar powered lighting kits. Lighting on demand for just about anything you can think of.

 Homeowners can use them to light walkways or other areas where it may not be convenient to run electricity, or where you may only need light temporarily. Have a dark corner of your yard or property? Would you like to light your driveway or entry way? These solar powered lighting kits could be the perfect solution. 

Campers, do you want an easier way to light your camping area than messing with fragile lanterns and their fuel, or using cheaply made components? Let the power of the sun that you enjoy all day, charge your batteries on these systems and provide you hours of free light at night without the mess and fuss of lantern fuels and ballasts. These are not just cheap little solar lanterns like the competition that are mostly made in China, and simply throw away models after a year of camping if  they even last that long. Most of those units only have a 1/4 of a watt of solar power and put out very dim light. These systems incorporate either a 10 watt or a 20 watt solar module which will charge your batteries for hours of bright lighting later. This is more like the ability to take the light from one of the rooms in your home to the outdoors. We offer these units with flood or spot style lighting.

Hunters, are you tired of hogs or coons eating all your corn at night and keeping the deer from getting it? Mount one of these quality lighting kits near your feeder with a green light, and gain the ability to sit until the pesky rodents come in and then take care of them with the light provided. Protect the investment of your grain and equipment. 

Farmer or Rancher, do you have a remote barn or other area of your property that you could use some convenient portable trouble free lighting? We may just have the simple solution for you here with these powerful lighting systems. Mount it on a barn for lighting around the outside or on the poles of your pens for lighting around them. (We can also design solar powered lighting systems for the interior of barns or sheds) 

There is really no end to the possible remote lighting solutions these systems can provide.
Let the power of the sun provide you the light you need for your nights. Once you pay for the system the light is free compared to conventional electricity, that's pretty cost effective lighting.
These systems are made with extremely high quality parts to provide years of dependable service.

Perhaps one of the greatest uses for these lights is just to keep outside charging for emergency lighting in case of a power outage due to storm or any other reason power may be lost. We all know power from the electric company comes and goes. These systems provide an incredible benefit as a back up lighting source. They can quickly and safely provide you needed light when the power company may fail.

If we can help you with one of  these quality lighting systems please don't hesitate to call us.

Have you ever wondered about a solar water pump and how it actually works?  
Well many of our customers were wondering the same thing before they checked out our website at solarpumps.com and got educated on our Advanced Power Inc solar well pump products.


Perhaps the best thing about our website solarpumps.com is the installation video on our home page. Most people assume you have to have a well driller or pump installer come and install your solar system. Well that just isn’t the case. Once you get a good look at this video, you will realize that anyone can do it. Yes that’s right I said anyone who is healthy enough to perform normal day to day activities can put in their own solar powered water pump up to depths of around 200 ft. If your water is deeper than that, then the weight of the pump and pipe may start to dictate that you need someone with the equipment for some heavy lifting. Still, if you don’t happen to have it, normally a neighbor or friend may have the necessary equipment instead of having to hire someone to do it.
The system we have in the video is either a K170SR4 or the K170R4. The only thing different about these systems is the warranty of the pump. The SR4 has a 2 year warranty, where the RP4 has a 5 year warranty with registration. This includes a 3 year factory warranty for defects in workmanship and materials. An additional 2 year prorated warranty can be obtained by filling out the registration form and sending it and a copy of your purchase receipt to the factory within 30 days of purchase.
The kit does not come with everything included in the video. Our solar water pumping kits that we ship all over the world include a solar pump with 100 feet of wire attached, 1, 2 or 3 solar panels depending on the size of system you order, and the mounting brackets and necessary wiring harnesses for the solar panels.


The customer is to provide the pump pipe, plumbing fittings and the pole for the solar panels.  It is also a great idea to have a ground rod kit.  Now for the top of the well we do have either a cap or seal available for a 4, 5 or 6 inch casing. If you already have a cap all you would need to do is drill a hole through the top so your pump pipe will fit thru and use a hose clamp to secure it so it won’t fall through. You will also need a second hole drilled in the cap so that the wire can be run through as well. It's important to note that with an Advanced Power Inc. solar pump you don't want to attach the weather pac connector to the end of your pump wire until you have pulled the wire through your well cap.
The most important thing that we would need to know to be able to size the right solar system for our customers is the casing size, depth to the top of the water and if there is any more elevation above ground to where the water is being delivered. We will also need to know how much water is needed for your specific situation.  We have 2 different sizes of diameter in our solar pumps and knowing the casing size will help us to help you better select the proper pump for your exact pumping situation.

Please feel free to go to our website at www.solarpumps.com and view the installation video and examine our information on our products pages. If you have any questions as always feel free to give our friendly staff a call at 866-519-7892 or shoot us an email with your situation at sales@solarpumps.com.

Easy to install systems make us a great choice for your solar water pumping needs.


One of the many things that gives Advanced Power Inc solar powered water well pumps the leading edge over our competition, is how easy our solar powered water well pumps are to install. 

Our Advanced Power Inc. solar powered water well pumps only weigh 14 pounds, so this makes them extremely easy to lower into and raise out of wells if the time ever came where you needed to transport the pump to another location.

 The API solar powered well pump will allow you to install your pump with or without the neighbors or hired hand helping, you can use help or normally one person can do it alone until you reach some greater depths.

 All of our solar powered pumping kits come standard with solar modules, easy bolt together aluminum mounts for the modules and also equipped with 100' of submersible wire that can be taped to the poly pipe as your solar powered well pump is lowered into the well. (additional wire is available on request).

When possible we recommend that you install your pump using 1/2'' black roll poly pipe for easy roll up coming out of the well, without having to break joints apart such as you do with threaded PVC, this makes it extremely easy for one person to pull the pump, and allow the pipe to roll out on the ground behind you if you are by yourself and need to remove the pump from the well.

 Advanced Power Inc. has a simple installation video available on our website www.solarpumps.com. You can view the video in about ten minutes and have a very good understanding of just how simple these systems are to install. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKhYf8989oM We have also attached the youtube link here for your easy viewing. 

We think once you see how easy it is to install a solar powered water well pumping system from Advanced Power Inc you will be convinced you can certainly do it yourself if you like.
