IBO KBFU 80-4-4.0P T pump Sludge with agitator 400 V 1450 rpm
IBO KBFU 80-4-4.0P T is a three-phase pump Sludge with a power of 4 kW, equipped with a four-pole motor operating at a speed of 1,450 rpm and a chrome alloy agitator. A slower motor combined with a bottom mixer and the ability to pass particles up to 30 mm make this model the choice for more difficult applications - thick sludge, bentonite slurries and media that the smaller KBFU series pumps cannot handle.
For whom
-
Mines and quarries with thick slurry – permissible particles up to 30 mm and operation in a medium with a density of up to 1200 kg/m³ are parameters unattainable in standard models of the KBFU series.
-
Drilling companies working with bentonite – a chromium alloy agitator actively breaks up sediment at the inlet, allowing pumping of thick drilling slurries.
-
Geotechnical and foundation works contractors – the combination of an agitator and a 4P engine works well when pumping drilling material from piles and diaphragm walls.
-
Industrial plants with high-density media – the 4-pole 1450 rpm motor has a significantly longer service life than the 2850 rpm equivalents when continuously operated in extremely demanding conditions.
-
Equipment selection engineers – extended pH range of 5–9 allows use in slightly acidic and alkaline environments, where standard models are not recommended.
Application
The IBO KBFU 80-4-4.0P T model is designed for pumping dense mud suspensions, drilling material and media with abrasive elements with a diameter of up to 30 mm - a range that significantly exceeds the capabilities of standard KBFU series models. A chrome alloy agitator mounted under the pump impeller causes the sludge to swirl, breaking up the clumps and allowing them to be sucked in without the risk of clogging the hydraulics. The cast iron structure of the hydraulic unit with a heavy abrasive layer on the impeller and agitator ensures resistance to intense abrasion even when pumping media with a density close to 1200 kg/m³.
The four-pole motor operating at a speed of 1,450 rpm is the key design difference compared to other models of the KBFU series. Lower rotational speed translates into lower mechanical stress in the drive system, lower vibrations and longer bearing life - especially important during continuous operation in difficult conditions. The cooling jacket maintains a safe engine temperature without having to fully submerge the pump.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – pump Sludge KBFU 80-4-4.0P T
What does the "4P" designation in the model name mean?
The "4P" designation indicates a four-pole motor operating at 1,450 rpm, while the standard KBFU series models have two-pole motors (2,850 rpm). Lower rotational speed translates into a much longer engine life, less vibration and better resistance to loads when pumping thick slurries.
What is the maximum particle size for KBFU 80-4-4.0P T?
The model allows solid particles with a diameter of up to 30 mm - six times larger than the standard 5 mm in other KBFU models. A chrome alloy agitator actively breaks up sediment at the inlet, allowing even thick mineral and drilling slurries to be pumped.
Can KBFU 80-4-4.0P T be used for pumping bentonite?
Yes - the model is designed, among others, for working with bentonite and other dense drilling slurries. The permissible density of the medium is up to 1200 kg/m³.
Where to buy the IBO KBFU 80-4-4.0P T pump?
The pump is available from Dambat trading partners, installation wholesalers and specialist technical stores. Dambat does not sell directly.
How long is the warranty for KBFU 80-4-4.0P T?
