MCI 8-40 – multistage, normal-suction centrifugal pump, 230 V
IPRO MCI pumps are multistage, normal-suction centrifugal pumps with hydraulics made entirely of AISI 304 stainless steel, designed for applications ranging from domestic installations to continuous operation in smaller industrial systems. The reinforced mechanical seal allows operation with liquids at temperatures of up to 70°C, while the compact, horizontal design makes installation easier in systems with limited space.
Who it is for
-
Households – the MCI 8 pump is suitable for drawing and conveying untreated water before treatment, watering the garden, and increasing pressure in a domestic water system.
-
Installers – the compact design and 1½x1½" connections make installation easier in small technical rooms and pressure-boosting systems.
-
Small commercial facilities – the pump is suitable for pressure-washing facilities, laundries, and pressure-boosting systems in public buildings.
-
Agriculture and horticulture – the high flow rate makes it easier to operate extensive irrigation and sprinkler systems.
Applications
IPRO MCI 8 pumps are designed to supply systems for drawing and conveying untreated water in households before treatment, including sprinkler operation and rainwater use. They are also suitable for public facilities, where they can increase pressure in water-conveying systems and operate in water-treatment systems. In smaller industrial applications, the pump is suitable for pressure-washing facilities, air-conditioning systems, and conveying moderately viscous, mildly aggressive liquids. The pump is not a water-treatment device – if the water is to be used for consumption, appropriate treatment and quality control must be provided.
In agriculture, MCI 8 pumps are used for irrigation and for conveying and dosing fertilizers. The high flow rate enables them to operate extensive sprinkler systems while maintaining high head. The MCI 8 industrial pump operates in a single-phase system powered by 1~230 V.
MCI 8 features – description and technical data
The hydraulics of MCI 8 pumps – the body, shaft, and connections – are made entirely of AISI 304 stainless steel, ensuring corrosion resistance regardless of the system’s operating conditions. The SiC/SiC/EPDM mechanical seal provides higher wear resistance than typical graphite/silicon carbide combinations, resulting in a longer seal service life when operating with demanding media.
The MCI 8 is equipped with 1½x1½" discharge and suction connections, making it easy to use with standard installation fittings and diaphragm tanks.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – MCI 8 multistage pump
What applications is the MCI 8 pump suitable for?
The IPRO MCI 8 pump is suitable for supplying systems that draw and convey untreated water and for increasing pressure in households before treatment, public facilities, smaller industrial systems, and agricultural irrigation and fertilizer-dosing applications.
Why is the SiC/SiC mechanical seal better than typical solutions?
The SiC/SiC seal configuration, with silicon carbide on both sliding surfaces, offers greater hardness and wear resistance than typical graphite/silicon carbide combinations, extending the seal’s service life during prolonged pump operation.
Does the MCI 8 pump require additional dry-running protection?
The MCI 8 pump motor has built-in thermal protection; however, additional dry-running protection is recommended in the system, particularly when supplying water from a tank or a well with a fluctuating water level.
How do I select the MCI pump capacity for my system’s requirements?
The MCI series offers flow rates ranging from 50 to 500 l/min, while the MCI 8 variants provide flow rates of up to 200 l/min. You can estimate your system’s exact water demand using our water demand calculator.
Where can I buy the MCI 8 multistage pump?
Dambat does not sell directly. The MCI 8 pump is available from our trade partners, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
Is the IPRO MCI 8 pump covered by a manufacturer’s warranty?
IPRO – 36-month (3-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service provided by Dambat.
