The Aico Japan AC-QDX8.0-18-1.1 Solar Shallow Submersible Pump is a heavy-duty 1100W submersible water pump designed for shallow wells, tanks, sumps, drainage, irrigation and general water transfer.

With a maximum head of 32 metres and a large 2-inch outlet, it is well suited for applications where a higher water volume is required rather than extreme pumping depth.

💦 High-Volume Water Transfer

The large 2-inch outlet makes this pump a strong option for jobs where large quantities of water need to be moved quickly.

Typical applications include:

• 🌾 Farm irrigation
• 🚰 Filling storage tanks
• 💦 Emptying tanks and sumps
• 🏗️ Construction-site drainage
• 🌱 Garden irrigation
• 🐄 Livestock water systems
• 🏠 Flood-water removal

📏 32-Metre Maximum Head

With a maximum head of 32 metres, the AC-QDX8.0-18-1.1 is best suited to shallow-to-medium lift applications.

Actual flow will reduce as:

• Vertical lift increases
• Pipe runs become longer
• Pipe diameter becomes smaller
• More bends and fittings are added

✅ Benefits

• Strong 1100W motor
• Large 2-inch outlet
• Suitable for high-flow applications
• Can be used in solar-powered systems
• Ideal for shallow wells and tanks
• Good for irrigation and drainage
• Compact submersible design
• Easy to move using the carrying handle

⚠️ Important Operating Notes

• 💧 Do not run the pump dry
• ⬇️ Keep the pump submerged while operating
• 🔌 Use a properly sized power supply/controller
• 🌍 Ensure proper electrical protection and earthing
• 📏 Use correctly sized 2-inch pipe or hose where possible
• 🧹 Avoid pumping heavy debris unless the exact pump version is rated for it
• 🔧 Professional installation is recommended for permanent setups
