Solar Tubewell / Water Pump Structure
Ground structure for solar tubewells and irrigation pumps, with the tilt adjusted by hand to follow the seasonal sun angle.
FERO design drawings. Photos of installed structures are on the project pages linked below.
This structure carries the array for a solar-powered tubewell or irrigation pump at an agricultural site, on a dedicated mount at the pump. Its tilt adjusts by hand from 25 to 90 degrees, so operators can follow the seasonal sun angle. It is SS400 iron, hot-dip galvanized to ASTM A123 with a 90 micron coating, or painted, with galvanized structure fasteners and SS304 module fasteners.
