4" ST 8-16 - Submersible Pump
The IBO 4" ST 8-16 submersible pump is a multistage centrifugal device with a diameter of 100 mm, powered by three-phase 400 V electricity. Thanks to its increased resistance to sand and floating impellers, it also operates reliably in water intakes with poorer water quality. It is used to draw and pump raw water from a deep well for use in residential and agricultural facilities and irrigation systems.
Who is it for?
- Owners of single- and multi-family homes with their own deep well – for the continuous, reliable drawing and pumping of raw water.
- Farms – increased resistance to sand and continuous operation make it suitable for intensive water intake.
- Users of irrigation systems – the pump supplies sprinklers, drip lines, and drainage systems.
- Installers – three-phase power supply and a durable construction make it easier to select the pump for more demanding installations.
Application
The 4" ST 8-16 submersible pump is designed for drawing and pumping technically clean raw water from drilled deep wells. It is used in residential and agricultural facilities with their own water intake, in heat pump installations, and for supplying irrigation and drainage systems. The pump is not a water treatment device – when using it for other purposes, we recommend ensuring appropriate water preparation.
The pump operates in a vertical position, submerged in a well with a minimum internal diameter of 115 mm. The raw water being pumped must not contain mechanical impurities beyond the permissible sand content, and its temperature should not exceed 35°C. The 4" ST 8-16 400V submersible pump is a durable solution for long-term operation on a farm.
Features of the 4" ST 8-16 pump
The 4" ST 8-16 is a multistage centrifugal device with a diameter of 100 mm, powered by three-phase 400 V electricity. The use of floating impellers and increased resistance to sand enable reliable operation in water intakes where standard submersible pumps would undergo accelerated wear. The permissible sand content is up to 5%, and the motor is oil-cooled.
Thermal protection built into the motor winding protects the device from overheating. The suction and discharge bodies are made of brass; the casing, shaft, and rotor are made of AISI 304 stainless steel; and the impellers and diffusers are made of PPO polymer. The mechanical seal uses a SiC/SiC/NBR configuration. The pump is supplied as standard with a 2 m power cable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – 4" ST 8-16 submersible pump
What is the 4" ST 8-16 submersible pump used for?
The IBO 4" ST 8-16 pump is used to draw and pump technically clean raw water from drilled deep wells. It is suitable for residential and agricultural facilities and irrigation systems.
How does the 4" ST differ from the 4" STM?
4" ST pumps are powered by three-phase 400 V electricity, while 4" STM pumps use single-phase 230 V electricity. The hydraulics of both versions are the same, and the choice depends on the type of power supply available in the installation.
In what type of well can the 4" ST 8-16 pump be installed?
The pump can be installed in a well with a minimum internal diameter of 115 mm, in a vertical position. The maximum immersion depth is 150 m, and the discharge connection should be located at least 2 m above the lowest water level.
Can the 4" ST 8-16 pump handle water containing sand?
The pump has increased resistance to sand thanks to its floating impellers and permits a sand content of up to 5%. However, please note that pumping sandy water still shortens the service life of the working components.
Which liquids must not be pumped with the 4" ST 8-16 pump?
The pump must not be used for salt water or water containing corrosive, flammable, or petroleum-derived substances, or long-fiber contaminants. It is also not suitable for food products or water with an excessive mineral content.
Where can the 4" ST 8-16 submersible pump be purchased?
As the manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The IBO 4" ST 8-16 submersible pump can be purchased from our trade partners, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
What warranty is provided for the 4" ST 8-16 pump?
The IBO 4" ST 8-16 submersible pump is covered by a 24-month (2-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat.
