MCI 16-20T – multistage non-self-priming 400V centrifugal pump
IPRO MCI T pumps are multistage, non-self-priming centrifugal pumps with hydraulics made entirely of AISI 304 stainless steel, designed for applications ranging from home installations to continuous operation in smaller industrial systems. The reinforced mechanical seal allows operation with liquids at temperatures up to 70°C, while the compact, horizontal design makes installation easier where space is limited.
Who it’s for
-
Homes and farms – the MCI 16T pump is suitable for drawing and pumping raw water before treatment, irrigation, and boosting pressure in three-phase installations.
-
Installers – the compact design and 2x2" connections make installation easier in small plant rooms and pump rooms.
-
Small service businesses – the pump is used in pressure washers, laundries, and pressure-boosting systems in public buildings.
-
Installers of larger industrial systems – three-phase power with the option to operate at 230V or 400V makes it easier to select a pump for different types of power distribution panels.
Applications
IPRO MCI 16T pumps are designed to supply systems that draw and pump raw water in homes before treatment, including sprinkler systems and rainwater use. They are also suitable for public facilities, boosting pressure in water pumping systems and in treatment systems. W smaller industrial applications, the pump is used in pressure washers, air conditioning systems, and for pumping moderately viscous, mildly aggressive liquids. The pump does not treat water; if the water is intended for consumption, it must be appropriately treated and its quality monitored.
W agriculture, MCI 16T pumps are used for irrigation and for pumping and dosing fertilizers. Their high capacity can serve extensive sprinkler systems while maintaining high head. The MCI 16T industrial pump operates on a three-phase supply at 3~230 V or 3~400 V.
MCI 16T – features and technical specifications
The hydraulic components of MCI 16T pumps—the casing, shaft, and ports—are made entirely of AISI 304 stainless steel, ensuring corrosion resistance regardless of the installation’s operating conditions. The SiC/SiC/EPDM mechanical seal offers greater wear resistance than typical graphite/silicon carbide combinations, resulting in a longer seal life when handling fluids with more demanding requirements.
The MCI 16T motors are designed for three-phase operation with either a 230V supply (delta connection) or a 400V supply (star connection), and the discharge and suction connections are sized 2x2".

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - MCI 16T multistage pump
What applications is the MCI 16T pump suitable for?
The IPRO MCI 16T pump is used to supply systems for drawing and pumping raw water and to increase water pressure in households, before treatment, in public buildings, smaller industrial installations, and in agriculture for irrigation and fertilizer dosing.
Can the MCI 16T pump motor be connected to both 230V and 400V?
Yes, the MCI 16T pump motor is designed for three-phase operation with either a 230V supply (delta connection) or a 400V supply (star connection), making it easier to choose a pump for different types of electrical installations.
Does the MCI 16T pump require additional dry-run protection?
The MCI 16T pump motor has built-in thermal protection. However, additional dry-run protection is recommended for the installation, particularly when drawing water from a tank or a well with a fluctuating water level.
How do I choose the MCI pump’s flow rate to meet my installation’s needs?
The MCI series offers flow rates ranging from 50 to 500 l/min, while the MCI 16T models provide flow rates of up to 450 l/min. You can estimate your installation’s exact water requirements using our water demand calculator.
Where can I buy the MCI 16T multistage pump?
Dambat does not sell directly to customers. The MCI 16T pump is available from our retail partners, plumbing wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
Is the IPRO MCI 16T pump covered by a manufacturer’s warranty?
IPRO - 36-month (3-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service provided by Dambat.
