CONAQUA - condensate pump
The CONAQUA condensate pump has a fully automatic operating cycle – it starts automatically when the condensate tank is full and switches off after the condensate has been pumped out, remaining off until the next cycle. The compact design allows the CONAQUA pump to be installed even in confined spaces where gravity drainage of condensate is not possible.
For whom
- Air-conditioning installers – the compact design facilitates installation near refrigeration and air-conditioning units in confined spaces.
- Owners of condensing boilers – materials resistant to acidic condensate (pH 3–5) ensure long-term operation without corrosion.
- Refrigeration equipment service technicians – the fully automatic on/off cycle eliminates the need for manual supervision of condensate drainage.
- Building managers with air-conditioning systems – quiet operation allows the pump to be installed without disrupting comfort in the room.
Applications
The CONAQUA condensate pump drains condensate produced by refrigeration units, air-conditioning units and condensing furnaces where the drain point is above the appliance or gravity drainage is not possible. The automatic operating cycle starts the pump when the tank is full and switches it off when the tank is empty, without user intervention.
The pump can discharge condensate up to a height of 5 m and over a horizontal distance of no more than 20 m, with each elbow and valve along the route counting as an additional metre of pumping height. When laying horizontal sections of the installation, maintain a slope of at least 1%. The CONAQUA 230V condensate pump is powered from a standard household or service installation socket.
Features
The materials used in the CONAQUA pump are resistant to acidic condensate produced in condensing boilers, where the condensate may have a pH of 3–5. The permitted temperature of the pumped water is 1°C to 25°C during continuous operation. Periodically, the pump may pump water at a temperature of 50°C, but such operation must not exceed 90 seconds, with a sufficiently long downtime between cycles.
The compact housing and low noise level allow the CONAQUA pump to be installed directly next to the connected appliance, without the need to set aside additional technical space. The pump comes with a power cord fitted with a plug.

Frequently asked questions
What is the CONAQUA condensate pump used for?
The CONAQUA pump drains condensate produced by refrigeration units, air-conditioning units, and condensing furnaces where gravity drainage is not possible. It operates in a fully automatic cycle, without the need for user supervision.
Will the CONAQUA pump work with my condensing boiler?
Yes—the materials used in the CONAQUA pump are resistant to acidic condensate with a pH of 3–5, such as that produced in typical condensing boilers, ensuring long-lasting operation without corrosion of the device components.
How far and how high can the CONAQUA pump deliver condensate?
The CONAQUA pump delivers condensate up to a height of 5 m and over a horizontal distance of no more than 20 m. Each elbow and valve along the installation route should be counted as an additional metre of delivery height, and horizontal sections should have a slope of at least 1%.
Does the CONAQUA pump require supervision during operation?
No—the pump operates in a fully automatic cycle. When the condensate tank fills, it switches on automatically, and after pumping out the condensate, it switches off until the next cycle, without the need for manual operation.
What is the warranty on the CONAQUA pump?
The CONAQUA condensate pump by IBO is covered by a 24-month (2-year) manufacturer's warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat.
