[RE-wrenches] Well pump with Sol-Ark

[Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar]

Look at a variable speed pump from Grundfos. Not as many choices for 
large pumping apps.

The SQ Flex pump is basically a VFD when used with the controller. It 
can direct run from solar which tells
you there is no surge. Even the SQ pump without the controller will soft 
start and should work with
any inverter built for offgrid.
