Domestic waterworks IBO AJ / 100l

Product detailed description

This domestic waterworks unit is commonly used in residential and small commercial settings where a consistent water supply is required. It is often integrated into systems that require elevated storage tanks or pressure boosting for distribution. Installers typically encounter this model in scenarios such as single-family homes, small apartment blocks, or agricultural facilities where water needs to be drawn from a lower-level reservoir and delivered efficiently to upper levels. The unit is designed to operate within standard electrical networks and is built to handle typical domestic water pressures and flows.

When installing the IBO AJ 100L, it is essential to ensure that the inlet and outlet connections match the system’s piping configuration. The unit is intended for use with clean water and should be positioned in a location that allows for easy access during maintenance. It is also important to verify that the electrical supply meets the specified voltage requirements and that the installation site is free from excessive vibration and moisture.

The maximum flow rate of 60 l/min indicates the volume of water the pump can move per minute under ideal conditions. The head of 50 m means the pump can lift water to a height of 50 metres vertically, which is useful when designing systems that require elevation. These parameters are critical for determining whether the unit is suitable for the intended application, especially when calculating the total dynamic head and flow demand of the system.

Installation and connection

The installation process involves securing the unit in a stable position, connecting the inlet and outlet pipes using the appropriate fittings, and ensuring the electrical supply is correctly wired. The unit requires a 230 V power supply and must be grounded according to local electrical codes. The length of the incoming cable is 1 metre, which should be considered when planning the routing of the power line to the control panel or switchboard.

• Verify that the inlet and outlet connections are compatible with the system’s piping. Standard thread types should be confirmed to avoid leaks or misalignment.
• Ensure the unit is mounted on a level surface to prevent vibration and wear on internal components.
• Check that the electrical connections are made by a qualified electrician and that all safety switches and fuses are properly rated for the pump’s power draw.
• Avoid dry running the pump, as this can cause overheating and damage to the impeller and seals.

Compatibility and accessories

This waterworks unit is compatible with standard domestic water supply systems and can be integrated with pressure tanks, expansion vessels, and control panels depending on the system design. When installing, it is recommended to include a non-return valve on the discharge side to prevent backflow and a pressure gauge to monitor system performance. Additional accessories such as filters or strainers may also be necessary if the water source contains particulate matter.

Technical background for designers

The IBO AJ 100L operates on a centrifugal pumping principle, using an impeller to generate kinetic energy and convert it into pressure energy. The pump is constructed using durable materials that resist corrosion and wear, making it suitable for long-term use in water systems. The unit is designed to be connected to a closed-loop or open-loop water circuit, depending on the application. Proper sizing is essential to ensure the pump operates within its optimal range, avoiding excessive wear and inefficiency. Factors such as pipe friction loss, elevation changes, and the number of fixtures served will influence the overall system performance.

Service and operation

Regular inspection of the pump’s electrical connections, seals, and bearings is recommended to ensure continued performance. Any signs of leakage, unusual noise, or reduced flow should be investigated promptly. While no specific service intervals are provided in the technical data, it is advisable to perform routine checks after extended periods of operation. The unit should be kept free from debris and moisture to prevent mechanical failure. In the event of a fault, the pump should be disconnected from the power supply before any diagnostic or repair work is carried out.

Frequently asked questions

Can the IBO AJ 100L be used with a pressure tank?
Yes, the unit is compatible with pressure tanks provided that the tank’s pressure settings match the pump’s operating range.

Is the unit suitable for use with well water?
Yes, the pump can be used with well water as long as the water is clean and free from large particulates that could block the inlet.

What is the maximum height this pump can lift water?
The pump can lift water to a height of 50 metres, based on the stated head capacity.

What is the length of the incoming power cable?
The incoming power cable is 1 metre in length, which should be taken into account when planning the electrical installation.
