The K Series is eBORA's clean-water range for duties that combine substantial flow with high discharge pressure. Three models cover 850 to 2,300 m³/hr, with total heads to 145 m. These are not solids-handling pumps: the impeller geometry that delivers this head band is incompatible with passing debris, so the K Series is specified where the water is filtered, settled or naturally clean.
Maximum Total Head
| Model | Capacity | Total Head | Solids Handling | Self-Priming Lift | Impeller Diameter | Pump Speed | Inlet | Outlet |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| K150 | 850 m³/hr | 140 m | N/A | 8.5 m | 515 mm | 1800 rpm | 200 mm | 150 mm |
| K200 | 1,300 m³/hr | 145 m | N/A | 8.5 m | 523 mm | 1800 rpm | 250 mm | 200 mm |
| K300 | 2,300 m³/hr | 85 m | N/A | 8.5 m | 425 mm | 1800 rpm | 350 mm | 300 mm |
Moving clean water over distance or elevation, where friction losses through long pipe runs put the duty point well above what a dewatering pump can reach. The K200 delivers 1,300 m³/hr at 145 m, which covers most single-stage transfer duties without resorting to a booster set.
Bulk supply into elevated storage, reservoir filling and mains charging need sustained pressure rather than peak flow. Mechanical shaft sealing suits continuous running better than packed glands, which need routine adjustment and leak by design.
Large-scale irrigation schemes and centre-pivot systems depend on maintained line pressure across the network. The K300 trades head for volume — 2,300 m³/hr at 85 m — which suits wide distribution at moderate lift, while the K150 and K200 handle higher-pressure zones.
Where groundwater ingress is filtered or settled before pumping, the K Series lifts it out in a single stage at pressures a dewatering pump cannot reach. Automatic self-priming to 8.5 m allows surface mounting rather than submerged installation.
Confirm the water is genuinely clean before specifying the K Series. None of the three models carries a solids-handling rating. If the water contains sand, silt or debris — even intermittently — the B Series is the correct range even where its lower head band means accepting a different duty point.
Head and flow move in opposite directions across the range. The K200 gives the most head at 145 m and 1,300 m³/hr; the K300 gives the most flow at 2,300 m³/hr but only 85 m. There is no model that maximises both, so the duty point decides.
Where the requirement exceeds 145 m of total head, the K Series has no model that reaches it. The L Series extends to 295 m and is the only range in the eBORA line-up above the K Series ceiling.
Across all three series eBORA covers flows to 3,350 m³/hr and total heads to 295 m. The K Series spans 3 models, reaching 2,300 m³/hr and 145 m of total head, for clean water duties with no solids handling. Every model self-primes to 8.5 m.
Tell us the duty — flow, total head and site conditions — and our team will size it and come back with a quotation. If you are not sure which model fits, describe the application and we will work it out.
The K200 reaches 145 m of total head at 1,300 m³/hr, with a 250 mm inlet and 200 mm outlet. It is the highest-head model in the K Series.
No. None of the three K Series models carries a solids-handling rating; they are specified for clean water only. For water carrying solids, the B Series handles up to 124 mm.
The K300 at 2,300 m³/hr, though at a lower total head of 85 m. If both high flow and high pressure are required, the K200 at 1,300 m³/hr and 145 m is the better balance.
Yes, automatically, to 8.5 m across all three models, with mechanical shaft sealing rather than packed glands.
Applications this range is recommended for, and the reason on the published numbers.
Process and service water at pressure, where the water has already been settled or filtered. Heads to 145 m, but no solids rating — confirm the water is genuinely clean before specifying.
Mining pumpingClean-water transfer at pressure for shore-based supply and distribution, with heads to 145 m. Not for water carrying sediment.
Marine pumpingMains charging, pressure boosting and distribution where the water has been settled or filtered. Heads to 145 m. No solids rating, so it belongs downstream of the intake rather than at it.
Irrigation pumpingClean-water transfer at pressure, including hydrostatic test fill. Heads to 145 m on the K200 and flows to 2,300 m³/hr on the K300.
Oil & Gas pumpingClean-water supply and distribution at pressure — mains charging and elevated storage — with heads to 145 m. Not for wastewater duty.
