MH 1300 hydrofor SK-15 – 230 V hydrofor set with SK-15 controller
MH 1300 with the SK-15 controller is a hydrofor set for the automatic intake and pumping of raw water in households and facilities with higher water demand. It combines a multistage, self-priming MH 1300 surface pump with a power rating of 1.3 kW and an SK-15 hydrofor controller, which controls the pump and protects it against dry running. When a water outlet is opened, the pump starts automatically; when it is closed, the pump switches off—the hydrofor operates without manual control.
Who it is for
-
Owners of homes and facilities with higher water demand – the MH 1300 hydrofor set with the SK-15 controller supplies systems with multiple water outlets while maintaining stable water pressure.
-
Users with limited installation space – the system with a controller instead of a tank takes up minimal space and simplifies installation.
-
Farms and horticultural operations – the high output of up to 100 l/min is suitable for supplying extensive irrigation systems, sprinklers, and watering systems.
-
Well users – as a well hydrofor, the pump draws water from surface intakes and shallow wells while maintaining even pressure in the system.
Application
The MH 1300 hydrofor set with the IBO SK-15 controller is designed for the automatic intake and pumping of technically clean, cold raw water in single-family homes, farms, recreational facilities, and allotments with higher water demand. Its suction capacity reaches up to 8 m. The high output and head make the set suitable for supplying extensive systems, as well as for increasing pressure in a system supplying an installation. The set is not a water-treatment device—when using the water for other purposes, we recommend ensuring appropriate treatment.
The SK-15 hydrofor controller starts the pump when water is drawn and switches it off when water use ends. Its built-in dry-run protection cuts off the power supply when there is no water, protecting the pump against damage. The dedicated accessories factory-matched to the pump simplify the process of completing and installing the system. The set operates on a 1~ 230 V / 50 Hz power supply.
Features of the MH 1300 hydrofor SK-15 – description and technical data
The set is based on a multistage, self-priming centrifugal surface pump with a suction system based on a Venturi tube, which increases the pump’s suction capacity. The suction housing and bracket are made of cast iron; the pump housing and shaft are made of AISI 304 stainless steel; and the impeller and diffuser are made of PPO polymer. The multistage design ensures high and stable pressure. Thermal protection is built into the motor winding and protects it against overheating.
The pump is controlled by the SK-15 hydrofor controller. A system with a controller does not require space for a tank, so the entire unit takes up minimal space and reduces the number of connections in the installation. The set can also be configured in a conventional system with a diaphragm tank—the range of tanks and controllers dedicated to IBO hydrofor sets is available in our hydrofor controller range.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – MH 1300 hydrofor SK-15 set
What does the MH 1300 hydrofor SK-15 set include?
The set includes an MH 1300 pump and an SK-15 hydrofor controller. You can find the remaining dedicated accessories, tanks, and controllers in our hydrofor set range.
How does the SK-15 controller work in this set?
The controller starts the pump when water is drawn and switches it off when water use ends—the set operates fully automatically. In addition, the controller cuts off the pump’s power supply when there is no water, protecting it against dry running.
How does this set differ from a set with a diaphragm tank?
In a system with an SK-15 controller, electronics that respond to water use control the pump, and the entire unit takes up significantly less space than a set with a tank. A diaphragm tank, on the other hand, stores a water reserve and reduces the frequency of pump starts. We recommend consulting our technical department when selecting the appropriate configuration.
Is the set protected against dry running?
Yes—the SK-15 hydrofor controller cuts off the pump’s power supply when there is no water, protecting it against damage caused by dry running.
From what depth can the pump draw water?
The set’s suction capacity reaches up to 8 m. The pump should be installed in a horizontal position, and the suction pipe should be as short as possible and sealed along its entire length, which makes it easier to prime the pump before starting it.
Does the MH 1300 hydrofor SK-15 set come with a manufacturer's warranty?
IBO – 24-month (2-year) manufacturer's warranty. Dambat provides warranty and post-warranty service.
Where can the MH 1300 hydrofor SK-15 set be purchased?
As a manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The set is available from our commercial partners, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
