Stock Water Bore Upgrades

Our client was a large cattle station in the remote northwest with a need for solar-powered water pumping systems at each of their stock water bores.

The client had been using diesel motor-powered line shaft pumps to draw water from old stock bores. These bores were in need of maintenance, and the client wanted to replace their pumps with solar pumping systems.

Our expert install team travelled to the station to carry out pump testing services and install Lorentz solar pumping systems to 15 old stock water bores that had previously been running line shaft pumps with diesel motors.

We were away from home for approximately 4 weeks with several thousand kilometres being covered at the station. We constructed the solar panel arrays with 8 to 16-panels with legs concreted into the ground. Flow rates varied from bore to bore but generally between 4,000L/hr to 14,000L/hr with pumping heads ranging from 10m to 120m.

The project was a great success with all 15 bores being operational by the end of May.
