6" FX6 65-8 – 400 V multistage submersible pump
The IBO ITALY 6" FX6 65-8 submersible pump is a multistage, Italian-made cast iron model designed to draw and pump raw water in large water supply and industrial systems, as well as fire protection and irrigation systems, before treatment. Its compact diameter for this performance class allows installation in narrower wells than larger models in the FX series, while the ability to operate horizontally further increases installation flexibility.
Who it’s for
-
Multi-family buildings and larger water supply systems – the series’ wide range of power and flow rates makes it possible to select a model suited to raw water intake and pumping requirements at the required scale.
-
Farms with high water demand – higher-capacity models supply extensive irrigation systems, sprinklers, and drip lines.
-
Industrial plants and fire protection systems – the cast iron construction and wide power range are suitable for demanding continuous-operation installations.
-
Installation contractors and designers – the pump’s 153 mm diameter allows the model to be precisely matched to wells narrower than those suitable for the FX8 and FX10 series.
Applications
The 6" FX6 pump is designed to draw raw water from deep sources for use in multi-family homes, farms, irrigation systems, fire protection systems, industry, and drainage. The pump does not treat water. If using it for other purposes, we recommend ensuring appropriate water treatment.
The pump operates in a vertical or horizontal position, at a maximum pumped-water temperature of 35°C. The 6" FX6 400 V submersible pump works with standard pressure tanks and pressure controls selected to suit the scale of the installation.
Features of the 6" FX6 pump
The 6" FX6 pump features a cast iron construction (suction casing, diffuser, and check valve in G25 cast iron) with stainless steel components: a shaft and coupling made of AISI 420, bearing housings made of AISI 316, and a filter screen, cable guard, and screws made of AISI 304. Depending on the model, the impeller is made of cast iron or bronze, and the seals use PU and NBR materials.
The pump’s maximum diameter, including the cable guard, is 153 mm, allowing installation in wells with a minimum internal diameter of 180 mm.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – 6" FX6 submersible pump
What type of well is the 6" FX6 pump suitable for?
The 6" FX6 pump requires a well with a minimum internal diameter of 180 mm, and the maximum diameter of the pump itself, including the cable guard, is 153 mm.
How does the 6" FX6 series differ from the FX8 and FX10 series?
All three series have the same cast-iron construction, but differ in diameter and the resulting flow rate – the 6" FX6 has the smallest diameter and fits narrower wells, while the FX8 and FX10 are designed for wider boreholes and larger systems.
What makes the 6" FX6 pump stand out?
The pump features a cast-iron construction with AISI 304/316/420 stainless steel components, ensuring durability during continuous operation. It can operate in both vertical and horizontal positions, and the built-in check valve limits water flowing back from the system after the pump is switched off.
How do I choose the right 6" FX6 pump model for my needs?
Choosing a model depends on the depth of the well and the amount of water needed at one time – the series includes a wide range of options with different power ratings, heads and flow rates. We encourage you to contact our technical department if you have any questions.
