Description
Water pump kits are simple 12v pumping systems based upon proven water-pumping technology which allows the large transference of large volumes of water. The trough is fitted with a float switch which turns on the submersible pump as the water level drops. There is no need for balancing tanks or header tanks, just a standard water trough. The pump is connected to 30m of hose which feeds back from the designated water source to the trough. This kit is powered by a 12v battery (not included) which sits in a weatherproof control box and includes a high efficiency 60 watt solar panel.
Water pump kits easily integrate with all standard water troughs so there is no need to train animals as with traditional pasture pumps which are also limited in the number of animals they can supply. Altough the kit is marginally more expensive than a pasture pump, it is far more flexible in application and compared with the cost of mains water, they are very economical.

Control box and battery compartment: Weatherproof polypropylene, battery life monitor, holds up to 12v 85amp/hr batteries
30m hose: 30m 1/2″ diameter reinforced hose
