AUTOIBO 2 – 230 V variable-frequency drive pump for increasing water pressure
AUTOIBO 2 is an IBO variable-frequency drive pump designed to maintain constant water pressure in a system. The built-in frequency converter continuously adjusts the motor speed to match demand, so water flows at a steady pressure even when it is drawn from several outlets simultaneously. This is a solution for anyone wondering how to increase water pressure at a tap at home or on a plot.
Who it is for
-
Residents of homes with low mains pressure – As a pressure-boosting pump, AUTOIBO 2 equalizes system operation where water from the mains flows too weakly, for example on new housing estates or at the ends of the network.
-
Owners of plots and properties in elevated locations – We ensure consistent water pressure even where it is naturally low.
-
Users of private water sources and rainwater – Thanks to its suction capability, the pump draws water from a well or tank, making it suitable for watering with rainwater and supplying a garden irrigation system.
-
People modernizing their systems – Quiet operation and a compact design make installation easier when modernizing a home's water system.
Applications
The IBO AUTOIBO 2 variable-frequency drive pump is designed to draw and convey technically clean, cold raw water from a private well before treatment, as well as to increase pressure in a system supplied by the mains water network. Its suction capacity reaches up to 8 m, and its delivery head up to 45 m, which is more than sufficient for a single-family home or a small utility building with several water outlets.
The pump starts automatically when the pressure in the system drops after a tap is opened and switches off when water consumption stops. It is suitable for increasing water pressure during periods when everyone in the area is watering their gardens, as well as for cyclically filling a tank with water from a source. The AUTOIBO 2 230 V variable-frequency drive pump works with domestic and garden water systems. The pump does not treat water—if water from a private well is to be used for drinking, it must be properly treated and its quality monitored.
AUTOIBO 2 features – description and technical data
At the heart of the unit is a self-priming centrifugal pump driven by a permanent-magnet motor integrated with a frequency converter. This arrangement continuously regulates the rotational speed, maintaining the set pressure at all taps in the installation. Compared with traditional water supply methods, the pump offers high efficiency and can save 30% to 60% of energy.
The soft-start function eliminates water hammer, which could damage the installation, while the pump operates quietly enough for the unit to be installed inside a building. Operation consists of setting the operating pressure with two buttons, without the need for a specialist visit.
AUTOIBO 2 is equipped with an extensive protection system managed by a controller: protection against dry running (the controller detects a lack of water and stops the pump, without the need to install additional probes or sensors in the well), motor overload, excessively low and high pressure and voltage, as well as protection against rotor blockage. The clear control panel indicates the operating mode and any error codes.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – AUTOIBO 2 pump with an inverter
How does a pump with an inverter maintain constant pressure?
The built-in frequency inverter continuously adjusts the motor’s rotational speed to the water demand. As a result, the pressure remains constant regardless of how many outlets are drawing water simultaneously.
Can AUTOIBO 2 help increase the water pressure at the tap?
Yes – it is a pressure-boosting pump. It is useful where the water supply network does not provide sufficient pressure, in new developments, at the ends of systems, and during the peak watering season in the area. Water pressure is increased automatically every time water is drawn.
Can the pump draw water from a well or a rainwater tank?
Yes – AUTOIBO 2 can draw water from a depth of up to 8 m, so it can draw water from your own water intake or a tank. To keep the pump primed and prevent it from drawing in air, it is advisable to install a check valve on the suction pipe to prevent the suction system from emptying – you can find suitable models in our range of accessories for surface pumps. Thanks to its cyclic operation function, the pump is well suited for watering with rainwater and supplying a garden irrigation system.
How can I check the water pressure in my home water system?
You can read the pressure from the pressure gauge installed in the system, and in the case of AUTOIBO 2, also from the control panel, which displays the operating and set pressure. This makes it easier to select settings when modernizing the home water system.
Is the pump protected against dry running?
Yes – AUTOIBO 2 has built-in dry-run protection, which does not require installing additional probes or sensors in the well. This protects the pump from damage when there is no water.
Is the AUTOIBO 2 pump with an inverter covered by the manufacturer’s warranty?
IBO – 24-month (2-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Dambat provides warranty and post-warranty service.
Where can I buy the AUTOIBO 2 pump with an inverter?
As a manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The pump is available from our trade partners, plumbing wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
