Solar Variable Frequency Drives for Pumps — Hybrid AC/DC Power

A Solar VFD is a specialized frequency converter that powers pump motors directly from photovoltaic panels (DC input) or from the electrical grid (AC input). The built-in MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) algorithm automatically finds the optimal operating point of solar panels to extract maximum energy throughout the day.

The chastotnik.ua VFD catalog features two solar pump inverter series: Veichi SI23 (1.5–200 kW) and Schneider Electric Altivar 320 Solar (0.37–15 kW). Both support dual power: PV panels + grid with automatic switchover.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a solar pump VFD?

A specialized variable frequency drive with DC input for direct connection to solar panels and a built-in MPPT algorithm. It powers pump motors directly from PV panels or from the grid (hybrid AC/DC mode), switching automatically between sources.

Do I need batteries for a solar pump?

No. Both Veichi SI23 and Schneider Altivar 320 Solar operate in direct drive mode — solar energy is immediately converted to motor rotation. No batteries needed, significantly reducing system cost and maintenance.

How many solar panels do I need for a pump?

Recommended PV array capacity is 1.3–1.5× the VFD's rated power. For example, a 4 kW inverter needs a 5.2–6 kW array (12–14 panels at 450 W each).

Does a solar pump work in cloudy weather and at night?

In cloudy weather, the pump runs at reduced power — the MPPT algorithm extracts maximum from available irradiance. At night, both series automatically switch to grid power (hybrid mode).

What's the difference between Veichi SI23 and Schneider Altivar 320 Solar?

Veichi SI23 — up to 200 kW, built-in PLC, IoT monitoring via GPRS/WiFi, ideal for large agricultural projects. Schneider Altivar 320 Solar — up to 15 kW, certified STO/SLS/SS1 safety, Modbus+CANopen, ideal for critical water supply.
