VX-80-1.5 - 400 V submersible pump with cutting impeller
The IBO VX-80-1.5 submersible pump with a single-channel, open impeller is a three-phase 400 V industrial device designed for pumping raw sewage containing fecal matter and dirty water. The impeller is equipped with a blade that cuts fibrous contaminants, while the dual independent sealing system and oil chamber protect the motor from water even if one of the seals is damaged.
Who it is for
-
Industrial plants and wastewater treatment plants – the impeller with a cutting blade handles fibrous contaminants, reducing the risk of system blockages.
-
Wastewater pumping stations and permanent installations – the option of mounting on guide rails with a foot coupling makes it easier to replace the pump without emptying the tank.
-
Companies carrying out large-scale installations – the 400 V three-phase power supply facilitates integration with switchboards and control cabinets.
-
Municipal facilities handling high wastewater volumes – the dual sealing system and oil chamber protect the motor during continuous operation.
Application
The VX-80-1.5 submersible pump with a single-channel, open impeller is designed for pumping raw sewage containing fecal matter and dirty water. The impeller is equipped with a blade that cuts fibrous contaminants, reducing the risk of system blockages; however, the length of the cut fibers should not exceed 80% of the pump outlet diameter.
The device operates in a vertical position, with a maximum pumped-liquid temperature of 40°C and a water pH range of 6–10. The VX-80-1.5 400 V submersible pump achieves a head of up to 13 m / 17 m at a capacity of up to 1000 / 1360 l/min.
Features of the VX-80-1.5 pump
The pump has a cast-iron construction – the motor housing, body, and impeller are made of cast iron. The shaft is made of AISI 304 stainless steel, so it does not corrode during constant contact with wastewater and maintains precise impeller alignment throughout its service life.
The impeller-side seal uses a silicon carbide/silicon carbide arrangement – a hard material combination with high wear resistance and a low coefficient of friction, which extends seal life during constant contact with contaminated water. An independent second seal on the motor side operates submerged in an oil chamber, using a carbon/ceramic arrangement and cooled and lubricated by oil. This dual sealing system protects the motor from water even if the first seal is damaged. Cast-iron feet bolted to the underside of the body keep the pump at an appropriate distance from the ground, reducing the risk of inlet blockage.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – VX-80-1.5 submersible pump
What contaminants can the VX-80-1.5 pump impeller handle?
The open impeller with a blade cuts fibrous contaminants in wastewater, provided that their length does not exceed 80% of the pump outlet diameter. This helps reduce the risk of system blockages when pumping raw sewage containing fecal matter.
What are the oil chamber and dual seal used for?
The dual mechanical sealing system protects the motor from water even if the first seal on the impeller side is damaged. The second seal operates submerged in the oil chamber on the motor side, providing an additional layer of protection.
How does the VX-80 pump differ from the WQ 65/80 series?
The VX-80 pump uses a single-channel open impeller with a cutting blade that cuts fibrous contaminants in wastewater. The WQ 65/80 series has a closed, two-channel impeller without a cutting function and is designed for higher capacities when pumping wastewater without an excess of long fibers.
Will the VX-80-1.5 pump work for my installation?
The pump is suitable for installations where the wastewater contains fibrous contaminants that need to be cut before pumping, as well as for installations with a three-phase power supply. If in doubt, we encourage you to contact the technical department.
Where can I buy the VX-80-1.5 submersible pump?
Dambat does not sell directly. The VX-80-1.5 pump is available from commercial partners, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
What warranty terms apply to the VX-80-1.5 pump?
IBO – 24-month (2-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service provided by Dambat.
