The 10SP160/8 is a 10" stainless steel multistage submersible borehole pump from the 10SP160 range (nominal flow around 160 m³/h), delivering heads of up to 274m and flows up to 216 m³/h. It runs on a three-phase supply (380V or 525V). Supplied as the pump end; the 8" 92kW motor is quoted on request.
At a glance: delivers about 120 m³/h (120 000 litres per hour) at 196m head. Best for large irrigation schemes, municipal water supply and mine dewatering from high-yield boreholes.
- Motor power: 92kW
- Pump diameter: 10" – needs a borehole with an internal diameter of at least 250mm
- Motor size: 8" motor
- Stainless steel pump construction

Choosing the right pump: add the depth to your borehole’s pumping water level, the height up to your tank or reservoir and about 10% for pipe friction – that’s your total head. Pick a pump whose head at the flow you need is higher than that total. Your borehole must also be able to deliver that flow – ask your driller for the yield-test result, otherwise the pump can run the borehole dry. Not sure which pump fits? Send us your borehole depth, water level, yield and how far/high you need to pump and we’ll recommend the right model before you order.
Not included: submersible cable, rope, delivery pipe and base plate. Large borehole pumps are often supplied to order – contact us to confirm stock and delivery time.
