IPC 550 – submersible pump with automatic and manual modes
The IBO IPC 550 submersible pump is a 550 W device designed for pumping
technically clean and slightly contaminated water, free of abrasive particles. Integrated
the electronic switch built into the housing enables operation in automatic or
manual mode, allowing both ongoing drainage of incoming water and occasional
emptying the tank almost completely to the bottom.
Who it is for
-
Homeowners and landowners – two operating modes allow the control method to be selected for ongoing drainage or one-time tank emptying.
-
Installation and service companies – the integrated electronic switch built into the housing facilitates installation without additional control equipment.
-
Farms and livestock operations – the 550 W power provides higher performance than smaller models of similar dimensions.
-
Wholesale and technical stores – the manual mode, which allows water to be pumped out almost to the bottom of the tank, distinguishes this model from simpler single-mode solutions.
Applications
The IPC 550 submersible pump is designed for pumping technically clean and slightly
contaminated water without abrasive particles such as sand. The pump is designed
for draining flooded rooms, pools, and sumps, as well as for pumping
from ponds, rivers, lakes, and shallow ring wells. The pump is not a water-treatment device
water – when using it for other purposes, we recommend ensuring appropriate treatment.
The device operates in a vertical position, fully submerged, at a maximum temperature
of the pumped liquid up to 35°C. The permissible size of solid contaminants is 5 mm,
which meets the requirements for technically clean and slightly contaminated water. The IPC 550 submersible pump
The 230 V unit is suitable for both small sumps and tanks requiring
periodic, thorough drainage.
IPC 550 pump features
The IPC 550 pump features a housing made of technopolymer, while the shaft and rotor
The motor shaft is made of AISI 304 stainless steel. The impeller is made of PPO polymer, and the gland
The mechanical seal in the SiC/graphite system provides resistance to typical contaminants
found in raw and slightly contaminated water.
The integrated electronic switch built into the pump body supports two operating modes:
in automatic mode, the pump starts when the water level reaches approx. 13 cm and switches off at
approx. 5 cm, whereas in manual mode it drains the tank to a level of approx. 2 mm. Protection
The thermal protection built into the winding protects the motor against overheating, while the threaded, stepped
The discharge outlet enables connection of hoses with different diameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)—IPC 550 submersible pump
What type of water is the IPC 550 pump designed for?
The IPC 550 pump is designed for technically clean and slightly contaminated water that does not contain
abrasive elements such as sand. The permissible solid particle size
is 5 mm.
What is the difference between the automatic and manual operating modes of the IPC 550 pump?
In automatic mode, the pump switches on automatically when the water level reaches approx. 13 cm
and switches off at approx. 5 cm, making it suitable for continuously draining incoming water.
Manual mode, on the other hand, allows the tank to be emptied almost to the very bottom, to a level of
approx. 2 mm.
How does the IPC 550 pump differ from the IPE 400 and IPK 400 models?
The IPC 550 pump has a higher power rating (550 W) than the IPE 400 and IPK 400 models (400 W), as well as an integrated
an electronic switch with two operating modes—automatic and manual, enabling
pumping water almost to the bottom of the tank. The IPE 400 and IPK 400 models operate exclusively
in automatic mode, controlled by an electronic sensor or a mechanical float, respectively.
mechanical.
How do I choose the operating mode of the IPC 550 pump for my needs?
Automatic mode is suitable for regularly draining incoming water,
for example, in a well, while manual mode allows you to temporarily empty the tank almost
to the very bottom. If you are unsure about selecting the right option, we encourage you to
contact with the technical department.
Where can I buy the IPC 550 submersible pump?
Dambat does not sell directly. The IPC 550 pump is available from partners
retailers, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
What warranty terms apply to the IPC 550 pump?
IBO – 24 months (2 years) of the manufacturer's warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service
provided by Dambat.
