8" FXB 90-8 – multistage 400 V submersible pump
The 8" FXB 90-8 submersible pump from IBO ITALY is a multistage cast-iron pump made in Italy, designed for extracting and pumping raw water in large water supply and industrial systems, as well as fire protection and irrigation systems, before treatment. Its larger diameter than the FX6 series enables higher flow rates, while the ability to operate in a horizontal position further increases installation flexibility.
Who is it 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 extraction and pumping according to the scale of demand.
-
Farms with high water demand – the higher-output 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 systems.
-
Installation contractors and designers – the pump diameter of 193 mm allows it to handle wider wells and higher flow rates than the FX6 series.
Applications
The 8" FXB pump is designed for extracting raw water from deep, wide wells for multi-family homes, farms, irrigation systems, fire protection systems, industrial applications, and drainage. The pump does not treat water – when using it for other purposes, we recommend ensuring appropriate water treatment.
The pump can operate in a vertical or horizontal position, with a maximum pumped-water temperature of 35°C. The 8" FXB 400 V submersible pump works with standard hydrophore tanks and pressure-control equipment selected according to the scale of the installation.
Features of the 8" FXB pump
The 8" FXB pump features a cast-iron construction (suction casing, diffuser, and check valve – G25 cast iron) with stainless-steel components – the shaft and coupling are made of AISI 420, bearing housings of AISI 316, and the filter screen, cable guard, and screws of AISI 304. The impeller is made of cast iron or bronze, depending on the model, while the seals are based on PU and NBR materials.
The maximum pump diameter, including the cable guard, is 193 mm.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – 8" FXB submersible pump
What well is the 8" FXB pump suitable for?
The maximum diameter of the 8" FXB pump, including the cable guard, is 193 mm. Before purchasing, it is worth measuring the actual borehole diameter to avoid installation problems.
How does the 8" FXB series differ from the FX6 and FX10 series?
All three series have an identical cast-iron construction, but they differ in diameter and the resulting flow rate – the 8" FXB has a larger diameter than the FX6, allowing higher flow rates, but a smaller diameter than the FX10, which is intended for even larger installations.
What distinguishes the 8" FXB pump?
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, while the built-in check valve limits water backflow from the system after the pump is switched off.
How do I choose an 8" FXB pump model for my needs?
The choice of model depends on the well depth and the amount of water required simultaneously – the series includes a wide range of variants with different power ratings, pumping heights, and flow rates. If in doubt, we encourage you to contact the technical department.
Where can I buy an 8" FXB submersible pump?
Dambat does not sell directly. The 8" FXB pump is available from commercial partners, installation wholesalers, and authorised online distributors.
What warranty terms apply to the 8" FXB pump?
IBO ITALY – 36-month (3-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat.
