DC 160 Submersible Drainage Water Pump 600 L/min 17.9m for Industrial Use
HIGH-EFFICIENCY INDUSTRIAL DISCHARGE: Delivers a massive water volume of up to 600 L/min (36 m³/h) with a high lift head reaching up to 17.9 meters, making quick work of draining flooded basements, construction sumps, and civil drainage pits.
OPTIMIZED ENERGY SAVINGS & POWER OUTPUT: Driven by an efficient 1.1 kW (1.5 HP) oil-bath induction motor designed to output extreme hydraulic pressure while keeping electrical draw low, cutting running costs during continuous heavy use.
EXTREME 20-METER SUBMERSION DEPTH: Built for extreme underwater depths, supporting safe, continuous duty submerged up to 20 meters deep—four times deeper than standard plastic pumps.
HEAVY-DUTY CAST IRON CONSTRUCTION: Engineered for tough conditions with a cataphoresis-painted cast iron pump body and cast iron impeller, AISI 304 stainless steel shaft, A2 stainless steel bolts, and a galvanized iron foot support.
PRO-GRADE OIL-BARRIER DOUBLE SEAL: Features a double mechanical seal in an oil bath (silicon carbide on pump side, ceramic-graphite on motor side) for 100% leak-proof motor protection during very heavy duty operations.
Product information
The Pentax DC 160 (and 3-phase DCT 160) is an industrial-grade, high-head Italian submersible drainage pump specifically engineered for very heavy civil, industrial, and agricultural use. Built with a rugged cataphoresis-coated cast iron body and cast iron impeller, it handles gray water and drainage with suspended solids up to 10 mm without clogging or wear.
Unlike lightweight plastic pumps, the DC 160 features an oil-bath induction motor designed for continuous operation under extreme pressure. It generates an impressive lift head of up to 17.9 meters and an immense flow rate of 600 L/min through a wide 2" discharge outlet. Its heavy-duty construction allows safe, long-term submersion at depths down to 20 meters.
Designed for maximum reliability and lower energy costs, the pump incorporates an oil-barrier double mechanical seal (silicon carbide / ceramic-graphite), A2 stainless steel bolts, NBR gaskets, and an AISI 304 stainless steel motor shaft. Equipped with a 10-meter H07 RN8F power cable, the Pentax DC 160 is the ultimate high-head solution for demanding drainage environments.
Note: Suitable for clean, gray, or slightly dirty drainage water with suspended solids up to Ø max 10 mm at liquid temperatures from 0°C to +40°C.
