Precautions
1.2 Cautions
1.2.1 Motor Insulation Test
Perform the insulation test when the motor is used for the first time, or when it is reused
after being stored for a long time, or in a regular check-up, in order to prevent the poor
insulation of motor windings from damaging the controller during the insulation test. A 500V mega-Ohm meter is recommended for the test. The insulation resistance must not be
less than 5 MΩ.
1.2.2 Thermal Protection of Motort
If the selected controller does not match the rated capacity of the motor , especially when
the rated power of the controller is higher than that of the motor, adjust the parameters for
motor protection in the controller or to install thermal relay to protect the motor .
1.2.3 Running Above Rated Frequency
The controller provides frequency output of 0 to 600.00Hz. If the controller is required to
run at over 50Hz, please consider the capacity of the machine.
1.2.4 Vibration of mechanical device
The controller may encounter the mechanical resonance point at some output frequenc-ies,
which can be avoided by setting the skip frequency. If the operating frequency of the
customer coincide with the resonant frequency please modify the operating frequency or
change the inherent resonance frequency of the mechanical system.
1.2.5 Motor heat and noise
The output of the controller is pulse width modulation (PWM) wave with certain harmonic
frequencies, and therefore, the motor temperature, noise, and vibration are slightly greater
than those when the controller runs at power frequency (50 Hz).
1.2.6 Voltage-sensitive device or capacitor on output side of the controller
Do not install the capacitor for improving power factor or lightning protection voltagesensitive resistor on the output side of the controller because the output of the controller is
PWM wave. Otherwise, the controller may suffer transient overcurrent or even
bedamaged.

1.2.7 Contactor at the I/O terminal of the controller
When a contactor is installed between the input side of the controller and the power supply,
the controller must not be started or stopped by switching the contactor on or off. If the
controller has to be operated by the contactor, ensure that the time interval between
switching is at least one hour since frequent charge and discharge will shorten the service
life of the capacitor inside the controller.
When a contactor is installed between the output side of the controller and the motor,do not
turn off the contactor when the controller is active. Otherwise, modules inside the controller
may be damaged.
1.2.8 The Use Occasion of the External Voltage Out of Rated Voltage Rage
The controller must not be used outside the allowable voltage range specified in this
manual. Otherwise, the controller’s components may be damaged. If required, use a
corresponding voltage step[-up or step-down device.
Chapter1 Safety and cautions
1.2.9 Change Three Phase Input into Two Phase Input
It is not allowed to change the three phase controller into two phase one . Otherwise , it
may cause it may cause fault or damage the controller.
1.2.10 The Protection of the Lighting Impulse
Although the controller has equipped with lightning overvoltage, overcurrent device, which
has a certain protection function for the induction lightining. For the lightning prone areas,
the user is necessary to install lightning protection device at the front of the controller,
which will benefit to the service life of the transducer.
1.2.11 Altitude and Derating
In places where the altitude is above 1000m and the cooling effect reduces due to thin airit
is necessary to de-rate the controller. Contact Our company for technical support.

SP200 Manual
1.2.12 Some Special Usages
If writing that is not described in this manual, such as common DC bus is applied, contact the agent or Our company for technical support.
1.2.13 The Cautious of the controller Disposal
The electrolytic capacitors on the main circuits and PCB may explore when they are burnt.
Poisonous gas is generated when the plastic parts are burn. Treat them as ordinary indu-
strial refer to relevant national laws and regulations.
1.2.14 Adaptable Motor
1. The standard parameters of the adaptable motor is adaptable four-squirrel-cage
asynchronous induction motor or PMSM. For other types of motor, select a proper
controller according to the rated motor current.
2. The cooling fan and rotor shaft of general controller are coaxial, which results in reduced
cooling effect when the rotational speed declines. If variable speed is required, add a
more powerful fan or replace.
3. The standard parameters of the adaptable motor have been configured inside the
controller. It is still necessary to perform motor auto-tuning or modify the default values
based on actual conditions. Otherwise, the running result and protection performance
will be affected.
4. The controller may alarm or even be damaged when short-circuit exists on cables or
inside the motor. Therefore, perform insulation short-circuit test when the motor and
cables are newly installed or during routine maintenance. During the test, make sure
that the controller is disconnected from the tested parts.

Basic principle
2.1 Basic principle
SP 200 solar pumping system can provide water for remote areas lacking of electricity or
places where the electricity supply is unstable. PV pump controller can convert the DC
power from solar panels to AC power so to drive various kinds of pumps.System enables
continiously pumping when in good weather. System is not equipped with strorage battery
devices, it is suggested that pumping the water to conservation pool for future use.Water
source could come from river, lake,well,or other natural water source or special
soucre.System enables application of floating switch in the conservation pool or water
tower to control the operation of pumps. Low water level probes can be installed in the
well to detect the water level of the well in order to stop the pumps when the well in low
water level. Diagram 1 is a typical SP200 PV pumping system. The main parts and
compenents of this system is after diagram 1.

S 200 PV pump controller can start the pump softly and is consistent with the electricity
coming from the changes providing by solar panels. The advantage of soft starting is avoid
surge or power surges when the pump or motor are in the process of starting,whi-ch
reduce the loss of motor and pumping system.
Requirements of pump check valve:
Note: To ensure the best reliability of the system and water supply, check valves is required
to be installed in the output pipe. The first check valves must be installed in the outlet of
pumps, the rest check valves should be installed in the vertical direction of the pipes of
every 30 meters(100 feet) behind the pump.

2.2 Functions
System diagnostics
SP200 PV pump controller continuously monitor the system performance and can detect a
variety of abnormal circumstance. In most cases, controller provide compensations as
required to keep the non-stop operation of the system. If there is a damage, controller will
protect the system and display fault state. If possible, controller will restart after the fault
status is gone. Fault codes and correction information please refer to the chapter of
Detecting and troubleshooting.
Motor soft-starter
Generally speaking, S 200pv pump controller will operate when there is water requirement or electricity is available.Everytime SP200 PV Pump Controller detect the water
requirement, the rotating speed is always improved slowly and at the same time add motor
voltage gradually.Compared to traditional water supply system, solar pumping sytem's
motor temperature and starting current is much lower. Controller with soft starting function
has no damage to the motor.
Overheating monitoring
P
S 200 PV pump controller can run at full power when the ambient temperature reaches
45℃ For temperature above 45℃, controller will keep on running by reducing output
power. When the controller temperature cooled to safety point, it will run at full power
output.
P
Water level float switch
P
S 200 PV pump controller can connect 2 water level detecting switch to detect pump
running by remote control. Water level switch is optional to the controller, it is not required.
SP200 PV pump controller's input power terminals can be switched to spare AC power
supply manually.
Spare AC power supply switch
Note: Based on different models, SP200 input power could be 220v AC single power, or
380V AC 3 phase power. For more information, please contact SINOVO or certified agent.
When the system is running by spare AC power, please check the DC power every 30 mins.
