Emponi products

EMPO-NI’s family of Solar Direct Drives "SDD" are passively cooled robust "stand alone" PV-solar powered motor drive solutions with Maximum Power Point Tracking and IP54(65) protection degree. They provide a rapidly paying-off substitute for Diesel or propane gas-powered pumping solutions.

EMPO-NI irrigation solutions for low pump head requirement (river / lake based and submersible pump): All shown solutions are optionally PayGo compatible. Tokens can be entered directly at the Solar Direct Drive (SDD). Well selected water guns / sprinklers provide better flexibility to precisely irrigate arbitrary shapes of land.

For an elementary supply of water EMPO-NI has developed a cost optimized submersible motor driven pump. The stainless steel motor is available with interchangeable stainless steel pumps optimized for pump heads of typically 30m, 85m and 100m (others on request). The set comprises the proven robust passively cooled EMPO-NI SDD1.5kW-425V and a pump head / discharge optimized submersible pump. Runs with any 4 quality PV-panels (60 cells).

In cooperation with Moerk Water, EMPO-NI has developed the drive of this system, which is now operated exclusively with Solar Energie and does not require a battery.

Modern high efficiency Thin Film Technology for better efficiency at diffuse light. Integrated EMPO-NI charge controller for Pb batteries with optimized PWM technology. IP 65 protected glass-glass module with hail specification - 2 cable connection to battery only. Robust shock absorbing low-stress panel holder for easy and fast roof mounting. Delivery: Solar panel 75Wp with integrated charge controller and specific mounting material. And we have stopped the clock for you: Installation takes about 20 minutes!

Our SOLmini series of PWM controlled battery charger controller are integrated into the PV-panel`s junction box. SOLmini`s are available for various current (0-9A) classes and battery voltage  ranges (9V-48V). Over 20 different SOLmini models are currently manufactured and we provide some of them as custom models.

A modified Solar Direct Drive for use in small acreage pivot irrigation applications. Today pivot irrigation systems are typically used for areas greater than about 25 hectares and require grid power supply or diesel generators in any case. EMPO-NI`s entirely PV-solar powered system for smaller pivot irrigation requirements has selected for the European Union funded research project "WEAM4i" that researched potential solutions for small off-grid pivot irrigation systems. Today the modular Pivot Drive 550 high torque is developed to drive pivot towers covering areas of typically 10-15 hectares. The control signals are compatible with standard Pivot controls of leading manufacturers.

The indoor COVID-19 infection risk is currently being discussed worldwide. The finest droplets (aerosols) that arise when you exhale are suspected to be likely carriers of viruses. In fact, aerosols float in the air for a long time and can spread widely. If you inhale these aerosols in sufficiently large quantities, there is a possibility of a COVID-19 infection. In contrast to CO2, aerosols can only be measured with a comparatively large and complex effort. However, from the easily ascertainable CO2 content in the air, one can in principle also infer the aerosol content in the air, since both arise during the same process, namely when exhaling. Hence, the CO2 content of the air can also be used as an indicator for the content of aerosols in closed rooms. A low CO2 content then also means a low risk of infection by viruses that are transported in aerosols.
