Enitial: Solar powered pumps provide remote solution

Enitial has partnered with LORENTZ, a specialist German solar powered pump manufacturer, to develop solar powered pumping systems that reduce customers’ costs, downtime and carbon footprint.

In a post-COVID world of limited travel and high environmental awareness as the government pledge for the UK to become net zero by 2050, demand has grown significantly for remote access and operation of equipment. Enitial has pioneered the use of solar powered pumps for landfill leachate extraction in the UK, taking Cawood closer to achieving our aims of sustainable working and net zero carbon practices, including reduced planned preventative maintenance.

“Traditional leachate and groundwater pumping systems are renowned for their expense and the requirement for ongoing maintenance,” said Leo Phillips, Head of Client Services at Enitial. “We have developed a complete solution to help customers reduce their operating and service costs as well as significantly reducing downtime.”

This solar powered solution offers a reliable way to manage leachate levels in a high efficiency system without electrical connections or airlines, helping customers to keep within compliance levels easily. Using the cloud-based pumpMANAGER system to manage and control the pump system via the app or web portal means that customers can monitor and diagnose any faults remotely, thereby reducing operating and service costs. This provides:

• Recordings of voltages, current, flow rates, pump speed, temperature and pressures of monitored pumps
• Real time and historical data views
• Remote configuration and programming of pump systems
• Proactive alerts via email in the event of a system problem
• Liquid-level measurement (if accessory add-on is applied)

‘Demand has surged in recent months as customers have been searching for remotely accessible, sustainable systems; it’s unprecedented,’ continued Leo. ‘Our specialist installation teams can adapt the pumps to suit any situation and integrate into existing systems to optimise our client’s leachate extraction.’

The pump technology is based on over 25 years development experience, resulting in highly efficient, intelligent pumping systems which remove many of the service challenges of both air pumps and non-specialised electric submersibles.
