K3 - 1 ¼" rotary hand pump
The IBO K3 1 ¼" rotary hand pump is a cast-iron, half-turn pump for transferring clean liquids such as water, petrol and diesel fuel. It does not require electricity to operate, making it suitable for allotments, gardens and places without access to electrical power. It can also serve as a priming pump for electric pumps without a self-priming function.
Who is it for?
- Allotment and garden owners - an independent water source without an electrical connection, ready to use at any time.
- Users of recreational and holiday homes - a simple hand pump that operates without electricity in areas with limited infrastructure.
- Farmers and users of areas without electricity - transferring water, petrol or diesel fuel wherever access to electricity is difficult.
- Owners of electric pumps without self-priming - the K3 can serve as a priming pump for such devices.
Applications
The K3 1 ¼" rotary hand pump is used to transfer clean liquids - water, petrol and diesel fuel - in places without access to electricity. It is used to draw water on allotments and in gardens, pump fuel and provide an emergency solution when an electric pump's power supply fails.
The pump can also prime an installation before starting surface pumps without a self-priming function. Its suction capacity reaches up to 7 m, and it is operated by moving the lever in a half-turn motion. After use, the liquid can be drained through the drain plug, protecting the pump against freezing. The K3 1 ¼" rotary hand pump is a durable cast-iron tool for operation without electricity.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) - K3 rotary hand pump
What is the IBO K3 rotary hand pump used for?
The IBO K3 rotary pump is used to transfer clean liquids - water, petrol and diesel fuel - without access to electricity. It is used on allotments, in gardens, as an emergency solution and as a priming pump for electric pumps.
What liquids can be pumped with the K3 rotary pump?
The K3 pump is designed for clean liquids: water, petrol and diesel fuel. The liquids must not contain solid contaminants that could damage the pump's vanes and seals.
How do the K1, K2 and K3 models differ?
The K series models differ in connection size, capacity and head - from the K1 with a 3/4" connection, through the K2 with a 1" connection, to the K3 with a 1 ¼" connection. The larger model provides higher capacity, so the choice depends on the required flow rate and installation diameter.
Can the K3 pump prime an electric pump?
Yes, the K3 rotary pump can serve as a priming pump for surface electric pumps without a self-priming function. This allows the installation to be filled with liquid before starting the main pump.
How can the K3 pump be protected for winter?
After use, especially before the frost season, the liquid should be drained from the pump through the drain plug. Leaving liquid inside may cause it to freeze and consequently damage the cast-iron body.
