Developed for tough landfill and remediation/recovery sites, Blackhawk Technology’s zero-emission Apollo solar piston pumps are emerging as versatile components in condensate-sump applications including renewable energy and pipeline. Reliable, non-polluting and affordable, Apollos pump anything that flows, regardless of viscosity or chemical composition. The above-grade driver has few moving parts and requires less maintenance. The in-sump piston pump resist biofouling and encrustation. Flows range to 3,800 gallons per day. The Apollo™ Solar is a linear-rod reciprocating piston pump powered by solar panels.

The highly efficient 3/8 hp driver is mounted at surface grade above the wellhead for simple installation and maintenance. The positive displacement pump removes product (i.e. leachate, hydrocarbons) from a two-inch or three-inch diameter well casing. The fluid inlet is located at the bottom of the pump intake cylinder and removes water or product at steady flow rates to 0 submergence depth. Solar power is ideal for remediation pump and groundwater pump applications in remote locations or other environments without electricity or pneumatic power.
