Pathfinder Package Inclusions
Reliable Hybrid Water Transfer Performance
The Outback Pathfinder AC/DC 800W is designed for properties requiring dependable surface water transfer where submersible pumps are not practical. Ideal for dams, tanks, rivers, creeks, irrigation systems, and livestock watering, this hybrid system delivers strong pressure and reliable daily operation across a wide range of rural applications.
Its surface-mounted centrifugal pump design provides efficient water transfer while maintaining consistent performance for moderate pressure applications.
Automatic Solar & AC Backup Operation
One of the biggest advantages of the Pathfinder system is its intelligent AC/DC hybrid capability. The included MPPT controller automatically prioritises solar power during the day while seamlessly allowing backup operation from mains power or a generator when required.
This helps maintain water supply during poor weather conditions, overnight operation, or periods of increased water demand without requiring batteries or an inverter.
Built For Harsh Australian Conditions
The Pathfinder is engineered using industrial-grade components selected for durability and long-term outdoor reliability.
The system features a high-efficiency brushless DC motor, brass impeller, copper windings, NSK bearings, and a heavy-duty cast iron powder-coated frame designed to withstand demanding rural environments.
The included dual-glass bifacial solar panels are wind and hail rated with anodised aluminium frames for long service life outdoors.
Intelligent Pump Protection & Monitoring
The supplied hybrid MPPT controller actively monitors operating conditions to protect the pump and improve system stability throughout the day.
Built-in protection features include:
• Automatic dry-run protection with auto restart
• Overload protection
• Thermal protection
• Over-voltage and under-voltage protection
• Soft-start motor control
• Automatic fault diagnostics and fault codes
• LED status indicators and live operating feedback
The controller provides real-time monitoring of voltage, current, power usage, speed, and system faults while housed inside a weather-resistant IP65 enclosure suitable for outdoor installation.
Designed For Everyday Rural Water Applications
The Pathfinder is ideal for:
• Water transfer from dams, rivers, creeks, and tanks
• Livestock watering systems
• Irrigation systems
• Tank filling
• Remote water supply
• Off-grid properties
• Rural and farm water transfer applications
• Applications requiring surface-mounted pumps instead of bore pumps
