Grundfos 16 SQF-10: High-Volume Solar Water Pumping
When you need a lot of water and your well is not extremely deep, a high-flow pump makes every sunny hour count. The Grundfos 16 SQF-10 SQFlex pump is a 4-inch centrifugal pump that moves up to 22 GPM at heads up to 230 ft. It runs straight from solar panels or from AC power, so it suits irrigation, livestock watering and larger off-grid homes.
Why You'll Love The Grundfos 16 SQF-10 SQFlex Pump
High flow for big jobs. Up to 22 GPM means storage tanks, troughs and irrigation reservoirs fill quickly while the sun is up. That gives you more water banked for evenings and cloudy days.
Runs on solar, wind or AC. The built-in electronics accept 30 to 300 VDC or 90 to 240 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Pair it with solar panels, a wind turbine, batteries or a generator.
Squeezes more from your panels. Built-in MPPT keeps the pump at the best operating point of your solar array as the light shifts. You pump more water with the same array.
Self-protecting motor. Dry-running protection via a water level electrode, plus over and under voltage, overload and overtemperature protection. It shuts itself down before damage happens.
Your life, with the Grundfos 16 SQF-10 SQFlex Pump
Midday sun, and the irrigation tank is filling fast. The cattle troughs stay full through the hottest part of summer, and the garden gets watered on schedule. There is no fuel bill and no generator noise, just water moving whenever the sun is out.
The Grundfos 16 SQF-10 SQFlex Pump in a nutshell
4 in centrifugal pump end
Grundfos adapted its centrifugal SQFlex pumps from its 4 in SP range for lower heads and higher flow rates, ideal when volume matters more than lift.
MSF 3 permanent-magnet motor
The 304 stainless steel motor draws up to 1,400 W and 8.4 A, adjusting its speed from 500 to 3,600 rpm to the power available.
Complete pump unit
The Grundfos 16 SQF-10 comes as a complete unit with the motor, a 6 ft cable with water level electrode and socket, and a cable guard.
Generator and control options
Run it from a generator rated at least 1,500 W, or add the Grundfos CU 200 control unit (sold separately) for tank level switching.
