Kailo 3.0 HP Submersible Water Pump

The Kailo 3.0 HP Submersible Water Pump is a heavy-duty, industrial-grade single-phase AC borehole pump. Stepping up to 3 Horsepower makes this machine a powerhouse engineered for deep-well water extraction, high-rise building distribution, and large-scale agricultural irrigation.

Like the rest of the Kailo lineup, it operates on standard 220V AC single-phase electricity and incorporates premium Italian-style copper winding architecture.

Key Specifications & Performance

Real-World Flow Expectations

With a high-head 3 HP pump, the vertical distance it has to push water dictates the volume you get at the discharge line:

• At 120 meters depth (Optimal Range): Safely delivers its rated capacity of roughly 3,000 Liters per Hour.

• At 160 meters depth (Maximum Ceiling): Flow will significantly drop as it fights the weight of the water column. If your borehole water table sits consistently lower than 140 meters, you should step up to a 4 HP system to maintain strong pressure and prevent overheating.

Core Engineering Features

• High-Torque Italian Copper Core: The 2.2 kW motor uses 100% heavy-duty copper windings encased in a hermetically sealed, oil-cooled stainless steel chamber. This provides fast heat dissipation during demanding, continuous pumping cycles.

• Integrated Check Valve: A mechanical one-way check valve is built directly into the pump head. When the power cuts out, this valve stops massive columns of water from rushing backward, saving the internal impellers from mechanical back-pressure damage.

• Thermal Overload Safeguard: If the well water drops below the intake level and the pump begins running dry, internal thermal sensors automatically trip to kill power before the motor coils warp from heat.

• External Control Box First Line of Defense: Shipped with a wall-mountable starter control panel. Electrical surges or drops in voltage will trip the fuses in the box at the surface rather than damaging the submerged hardware deep underground.

Critical Power & Generator Requirements

A 3 HP induction motor draws an exceptionally large surge of current the exact millisecond the motor attempts to start up. Missing these electrical power requirements can destroy your controller or stall your power source:

• Mains / Grid Power: Must be run on a dedicated circuit breaker (minimum 32A to 40A recommended) due to high in-rush startup current.

• Generator Sizing: To run this pump cleanly on a remote farm or job site, a standard 5kVA or 6.5kVA generator will choke or stall. You need a minimum 9.5 kVA to 11 kVA gasoline or diesel generator to handle the initial inductive startup spike safely.

• Solar Inverter System: If you intend to power this AC pump via an off-grid solar battery array, a standard inverter will fail. You will need a heavy-duty Pure Sine Wave Inverter with a peak surge rating of at least 9,000W to 10,000W (or a specialized 2.2 kW AC Solar VFD/Pump Inverter).
