Franklin Electric 45DTMSP-1.1 4" Solar Bore Pump Kit Excluding Panels - Post Mount

The Franklin Electric 45DTMSP-1.1 Solar Bore Pump Kit provides a solar-powered pumping solution for rural water supply, livestock watering and bore-to-tank transfer. Combining a 4" submersible pump and motor with a DrivE-Tech MINI Solar MP controller, this package brings together the core components required for connection to a compatible solar array. Its 1.1kW motor drives a 15-stage pump end in the 45 L/min nominal flow range, allowing the system to be selected according to the bore’s pumping water level, delivery elevation and required daily water volume.

The DrivE-Tech MINI Solar MP controller manages the electrical supply to the motor, adjusting pump operation as available sunlight changes throughout the day. Maximum Power Point Tracking helps optimise the use of energy from the solar array, while integrated voltage boost and variable-speed control support flexible solar pumping installations. Built-in diagnostics and protection functions help monitor operating conditions, with the supplied flow switch and 32mm stainless steel manifold providing the components for flow monitoring within a correctly installed and configured system.

Supplied with a 304 stainless steel pump and motor, splice kit and pole mounting bracket, the 45DTMSP-1.1 provides a practical package for new bore installations or compatible replacement systems. The -PM suffix identifies the pole mounting bracket for the controller assembly, distinguishing this kit from the ground-mount configuration. Solar panels and the solar array frame are not included and must be selected separately to match the controller requirements, site conditions and pumping duty.

SELECTION AND INSTALLATION INFORMATION

• Solar array required: Solar panels and the solar array frame are excluded. Select a compatible array to meet the controller’s electrical requirements and required pumping duty.
• Post-mount configuration: The supplied bracket supports the controller assembly on a suitable pole. It is separate from the solar panel mounting frame.
• Flow designation: The 45 L/min figure identifies the pump’s nominal flow range; it is not its maximum flow.
• Performance: Actual delivery depends on available solar power, pumping water level, delivery elevation and pipework friction losses.
• System sizing: Confirm the required daily water volume and total dynamic head before selecting the pump and solar array.
• Installation accessories: Select the required submersible cable, rising main, fittings and level controls separately.
• Backup power: Confirm any mains or generator backup requirements when ordering. AC changeover equipment is not included in the confirmed kit contents.
