hello guys.

Excuse my English as I am Spanish living in London. Recently I bough a farm land in Sweden and I installed a 345w solar panel system and a 80A battery with 2000w inverter.

My land has a slow pace river down and I need to pump water to a deposit 10-15m high and 60m distance. I don't mind too much the amount of water per minute the deposit will be 500L and I think I could use around 100-150 per day then if I can fill 150L in 15min I'm happy with it.

Somebody recommend me a 0.2hp calpeda suction pump that will do the job, slow but will. I'm not sure and before investing I need to have it clear.

Since London is not a good place for local questions of this type and B&Q style shops keepers have more interest in the Kardashian family that in what they selling, then it is not a good place to ask.

Hope you guys can give me a bit of light on this problem.

Have you looked at ram pumps?
I think they will do as you ask.

Yeah. I saw them working I didn't think on them because that river are like a lake. Super super flat. Look like no movement and for ram pump require a bit of power yeah ?
