Abstract


Irrigation is one of the efforts to maximize crop yields, but not all agricultural areas have sufficient water. Using diesel as a tool for irrigation to agricultural land is also less effective. The utilization of solar energy is an environmentally friendly solution by developing a solar-powered water pump system. The solar-powered water pump system utilizes solar panels to convert solar energy into electrical energy. The electrical energy produced is then stored in the battery to generate a water pump with the help of a solar charge controller. This study also monitors water flow on the internet of things (IoT) using a water flow sensor controlled by the NodeMCU esp8266, and the data is displayed on the Blynk application. Testing on the system for 20 minutes resulted in a water flow with an average of 1.3215 liters/minute and a total volume of 26.43 liters. In the monitoring system displayed on the Blynk application, the total volume for ±2.5 hours is 243.64 liters. The maximum voltage of the solar panel is 20V and the average load of the water pump is 12.12V. The water pump voltage affects the water flow produced, the hose at the inlet is also one of the factors that influence the water flow.
