5" SD 20-17 - submersible pump
The IBO 5" SD submersible pump is a multistage design with increased sand resistance, intended for drawing and pumping untreated water in single- and multi-family homes, farms, and industrial installations. The gray cast iron housing and AISI 304 stainless steel components ensure durability in deep boreholes, while the floating impellers reduce the effects of periodic sand contamination and extend the device's service life.
Who it's for
-
Farms and horticultural operations – high hydraulic output makes it easier to supply irrigation systems, sprinklers, and drip lines across larger areas.
-
Multi-family buildings and facilities with high water demand – the series’ wide power range makes it possible to choose a model suited to the scale of the installation.
-
Industrial plants and drainage installations – increased sand resistance is useful when water is periodically sandy and during continuous operation.
-
Installers and drilling companies – the two-part design, with the motor and hydraulic section supplied separately, makes transport and installation in deep boreholes easier.
Applications
The 5" SD series is designed to draw and pump clean, untreated water from deep drilled wells for single- and multi-family homes, farms, irrigation systems, and industrial and drainage installations. Its design offers increased sand resistance and tolerates water containing up to 5% sand. The pump does not treat water. If using it for other purposes, we recommend ensuring appropriate water treatment.
The pumps operate vertically in wells with a minimum internal diameter of 145 mm, at a maximum pumped water temperature of 35°C. The 5" SD 400 V submersible pump works with standard pressure tanks, pressure controls, and dry-run protection selected to suit the well conditions.
Features of the 5" SD series
The IBO 5" SD series pumps share a multistage design and identical materials, regardless of the model. Individual variants differ only in their operating point on the shared performance curve. This means choosing a model comes down to matching the well parameters and water demand, with no change to installation or operating requirements.
Thermal protection built into the motor winding protects the drive against overload, while oil cooling ensures stable continuous operation.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) - IBO 5" SD submersible pump
What is the difference between the 5" SD 20 and 5" SD 32 models?
The designations "20" and "32" refer to hydraulic performance - model 20 pumps achieve a higher head at a lower flow rate, while model 32 pumps provide greater flow at a lower head. The choice depends on the well's characteristics and water demand, not on build quality - both groups have identical construction and materials.
What types of installations is the 5" SD submersible pump suitable for?
The pump is suitable for drawing and pumping raw water in single- and multi-family homes, farms, irrigation systems, and industrial and drainage installations. It requires a water source with a low level of contaminants - the maximum permissible sand content is 5%.
How do you choose a 5" SD series pump model for a well?
The choice of model depends on the static and dynamic water levels, the required head, and the installation's water demand. The series includes models with different power ratings and capacities, making it possible to match the pump to both small domestic water sources and larger agricultural or industrial installations. W If you have any questions, please contact our technical department.
Can the 5" SD pump handle water containing sand?
Yes – the series has increased sand resistance, up to 5% sand content, but regularly pumping sandy water may shorten the lifespan of the device and installation.
Where can you buy an IBO 5" SD submersible pump?
Dambat does not sell directly. 5" SD series pumps are available from retail partners, plumbing wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
What warranty terms apply to the 5" SD pump?
IBO - 24-month (2-year) manufacturer's warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat.
