KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 - pump Sludge
submersible pump KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 by IBO with a built-in intelligent controller with a liquid level probe, thanks to which it operates fully automatically and virtually maintenance-free. The design with a cooling jacket and a wide rotor gap allows operation in water containing sand and sediment, without the need to fully immerse the device.
For whom
- Construction companies – drainage of excavations and foundation pits without the need for constant supervision of the water level.
- Property and plot owners - automatic emptying of absorbent wells and rainwater tanks.
- Installers - the compact design allows installation in wells and underground spaces of small diameter.
- Service companies and equipment rental companies - low weight and simple operation facilitate transport and quick commissioning at subsequent facilities.
Application
The pump is used for drainage of construction excavations, wells and various types of utility pits and underground spaces. It is also useful for draining rain, muddy and slightly polluted water, where the liquid level changes irregularly.
An automatic level probe with adjustable switch-on height eliminates the need for manual supervision of the device's operation, and a delayed switch-off at low water level prevents the pump from switching on too frequently due to natural fluctuations of the liquid level. submersible pump KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 230 V works based on Power supply single-phase, which makes it easy to connect on a typical construction site.
Features
The pump controller is responsible not only for automatic switching on and off based on the liquid level, but also for motor protection - in the event of an incorrect supply voltage or a blocked rotor, the device stops automatically and resumes operation when the conditions stabilize. Water is sucked in from the bottom and flows along the motor housing and water jacket, which ensures effective cooling and allows continuous operation even when the pump is partially submerged.
The semi-open impeller away from the pump body reduces the risk of clogging with sediment or sand, and the cast iron construction of the hydraulic elements together with the AISI 420 stainless steel shaft ensures corrosion resistance and long service life in a humid working environment. The threaded discharge port can be mounted vertically or diagonally, making it easy to route the hose without kinks in tight wells.

Frequently asked questions
What is the KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 pump used for?
The KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 pump is used to drain construction excavations, wells, utility pits and to drain rainwater, muddy and slightly polluted water.
How does KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 differ from the standard KBFU series pump?
Unlike the standard KBFU version, the AUTO model is equipped with a controller with a liquid level probe, thanks to which it automatically turns on and off depending on the water level, without the need for manual operation.
Will the KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 pump work in my well or trench?
The compact design allows for installation in wells and underground spaces with a small diameter, and the wide impeller gap tolerates the presence of sand and fine sediments in the pumped water. If you need help selecting the right device for your installation, please contact us technical department
How does the automatic water level sensor in the KBFU-AUTO pump work?
The pump operates as long as the level probe is immersed in water, and when it is uncovered, it turns off with a delay of approximately 60 seconds, which prevents it from being switched on too frequently when the liquid level fluctuates. The height of the probe can be adjusted depending on the installation needs.
Where can I buy the KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 pump?
The pump is available from our trading partners, installation wholesalers and authorized online distributors.
What warranty applies to the KBFU-AUTO-50-0.48 pump?
The IBO brand pump is covered by a 24-month manufacturer's warranty, and warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat.
