Well pump hours on the DELTA 2 Max

1/3 hp well pump (EWEB figure) (EWEB)1,000 W1.7 h

Wh × 0.85 ÷ (watts + the station’s own draw, where the maker lists it).

The pump only runs while water is drawn. Many well pumps run on 240 V and are wired into the panel; a station’s 120 V outlets can’t run a 240 V pump.

Can the DELTA 2 Max start it?

EWEB’s chart lists about 3,000 W in total to start a 1/3 hp well pump (EWEB); Portland General Electric warns the start can reach six times the running watts (PGE). The DELTA 2 Max has a 4,800 W surge. Well pump (Idaho Power figure): covers it; 1/3 hp well pump (EWEB figure): covers it.

How much an hour takes

An hour of a 1/3 hp well pump (EWEB figure) running nonstop uses about 1,000 Wh, about 57% of the DELTA 2 Max’s usable 1,741 Wh. At its 1,000 W solar input and our 75% assumption, strong sun puts about 750 Wh an hour back into the battery.

A wired-in pump needs a transfer switch installed by a professional; never connect a backup to house wiring yourself.
