The S1-700 is a plug-and-play solar pump system designed for quick and easy installation. Follow these steps to install your pump in almost any clean water source:

Install the S-Connect app

  • Downloading the S-Connect app

Connect an adapter and a pipe to the pump discharge

  • Install an adapter that matches the thread type and discharge size of your pump end. The adapter material depends on the type of pipe you are using (plastic or steel) and must be sourced locally. Refer to the table below:
Pump modelDischarge size
CST-2-10Rp 1 1/4”NPT 1 1/4”
CST-4-6Rp 1 1/2”NPT 1 1/2”
  • Then connect a pipe that is appropriately sized for the discharge.

Attach a safety rope to the pump

This is important for safely lowering and retrieving the pump.

Mount the PV Disconnect and the S1-700 controller

Ensure the S1-700 controller and PV Disconnect are installed close to each other — the MC4 cable between them is only 50 cm [1.6 ft] long.

For detailed guidelines, see the following article:

  • Mounting the S1 controller

Connect the PV modules in series

Ensure correct wiring for optimal performance.

IMPORTANT: The total open-circuit voltage (Voc) of your PV array must not exceed 220 V or the controller will be damaged.

For more information, refer to the following article:

  • S1-700 systems: connecting PV modules in series

Connect the motor cable to the S1-700 controller

The motor plug includes a retainer that must be screwed into the controller:

Connect accessories

Install any accessories such as Dry Run Protection, Tank Full Switch, or Remote Tank Switch, and connect them to the appropriate sockets on the S1-700 controller. For more information refer to the following articles:

  • Function and use of Remote Tank Switch
  • Function and use of Tank Full Switch
  • Function and use of Dry Run Protection

In the example below, only the Dry Run Protection is being connected, if you wish to connect the other two sensors, do so in the corresponding socket.

Connect the PV Cables (MC4) to the controller and PV Disconnect

Ensure both the PV Disconnect and the S1-700 controller are turned "OFF" during connection.

Ground the S1-700 controller

For grounding instructions, refer to:
