IPK 400 – submersible pump with float
The IBO IPK 400 submersible pump is a 400 W device designed for pumping
technically clean and slightly contaminated water free of abrasive particles. The mechanical float
built into the housing controls pump operation and protects the motor against running without water,
and the compact design allows installation in small sumps and tanks.
Who it is for
-
Home and allotment owners – the compact design allows installation in small sumps and rainwater tanks.
-
Installation and service companies – the float built into the housing automates pump operation without the need to install additional control equipment.
-
Farms and livestock holdings – the pump is suitable for pumping water from ponds, tanks, and shallow ring wells.
-
Wholesale and technical stores – this model expands the range with a version featuring proven float control and resistance to basic installation conditions.
Applications
The IPK 400 submersible pump is designed for pumping technically clean and slightly
contaminated water free of abrasive particles such as sand. The pump is intended
for draining flooded rooms, swimming 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—for other uses, 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 soft solid contaminants is
30 mm, allowing operation in slightly contaminated water without the risk of blocking
the impeller. The IPK 400 230 V submersible pump is suitable for wells and tanks
with dimensions allowing the float to move freely.
IPK 400 pump features
The IPK 400 pump housing is made of technopolymer, while the shaft and rotor are made of
AISI 304 stainless steel motor. The multi-blade impeller is made of PPO polymer, while the
the mechanical seal in a SiC/graphite arrangement provides resistance to typical contaminants
found in raw and slightly contaminated water.
The mechanical float built into the pump housing automatically switches the pump on and off
depending on the water level, also providing basic protection against
dry running. The thermal protection built into the winding protects the motor against
overheating, while the threaded discharge connection enables hoses of different diameters to be connected.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – IPK 400 submersible pump
What type of water is the IPK 400 pump designed for?
The IPK 400 pump is designed for technically clean and slightly contaminated water that does not contain
abrasive particles such as sand. The permissible size of soft contaminants
the maximum size of solid particles is 30 mm.
How does the pump protect itself against dry running?
Protection is provided by a mechanical float built into the pump housing, which cuts off the power supply to
the motor when the water level falls below the safe minimum. Additionally, thermal protection
thermal protection in the winding protects the motor from overheating.
What is the difference between the IPK 400 and IPE 400 pumps?
Both pumps have identical hydraulic and electrical parameters, but they differ in their method of
for controlling operation – the IPK 400 uses a mechanical float built into the housing, while the IPE 400
an electronic level probe. The mechanical float is a proven, simpler solution
for wells and tanks with standard dimensions.
What well dimensions are required for the IPK 400 pump?
The well or tank should be large enough to allow the float to move freely
move with the water level without catching on the walls. If in doubt,
for selection, we encourage you to
contact with the technical department.
Where can I buy the IPK 400 submersible pump?
Dambat does not sell directly. The IPK 400 pump is available from partners
retail outlets, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
What are the warranty terms for the IPK 400 pump?
IBO – 24 months (2 years) of the manufacturer's warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service
provided by Dambat.
