Efficiency

Why are LORENTZ systems more efficient?

As the energy from the sun is not constant, either seasonally or daily due to changing of the weather, a solar pumping system must adapt to the changing conditions and deliver as much water possible with the amount of power available. Software in the pump controller looks at the available power and changes how the pump is powered to maximise the water output.

Choosing the right materials and designs for products allows for precise tolerances, this assists with mechanical efficiency.

Efficiency is very important for a solar water pumping system. Efficiency ultimately defines how much water the system will pump with the available power. With solar power (PV modules) then you are making a capital investment in your power source. With an efficient system, you either spend less for the same amount of water or get more water from the same power source.

Simply more water

Efficient systems will start pumping earlier in the day, pump more water throughout the day and will stop pumping later in the day. Look at the charts below comparing a LORENTZ system against another high-quality, global, solar pump system. Notice the difference depending on the weather.
