Product Overview
The eleven-stage ZN616/11 is intended for groundwater lowering where the installation needs a higher hydraulic lift from a six-inch borehole wet end. It delivers a maximum flow of 367 L/Min and reaches a maximum head of 135 metres.
AISI 316 stainless steel provides the pump-end construction, with AISI 316L stainless steel impellers and diffusers incorporating removable wear rings. The rotating shaft is Duplex stainless steel UNS S 31803 and the replaceable coupling is Duplex stainless steel UNS S 32304. The pump end permits suspended sand up to 100 g/m³.
With the standard L6W motor, water temperature is limited to 35°C. Hydraulic performance is specified to EN ISO 9906 Grade 3B. The Rp 2 1/2– (65 mm) threaded connection provides the outlet, while a standard 6-inch NEMA motor connection allows coupling with the L6W motor. Maximum immersion is 350 metres.
The discharge end uses a microcast ASTM CF-8M (AISI 316 cast) head and lower support with an integrated stainless steel non-return valve. Safety-hook holes are included for installation and securing.
FEATURES
- Eleven radial stages provide the additional lift required for groundwater lowering.
- Removable wear rings make the hydraulic stages serviceable.
- AISI 316L impellers and diffusers provide the specified stainless-steel hydraulic construction.
- The Duplex UNS S 31803 shaft forms the rotating assembly.
- The replaceable Duplex UNS S 32304 coupling provides the specified connection.
- AISI 316L tie rods and cable guard extend the stainless-steel construction.
- The microcast discharge assembly integrates the stainless steel non-return valve.
* Submersible motor sold separately - requires coupling and assembly

How does this submersible pump resist harsh borehole minerals and suspended abrasive grit?
Underground mineral resistance is assured by AISI 316 stainless steel pump end, AISI 316L stainless steel impellers and diffusers with removable wear rings, Duplex UNS S 31803 shaft, and Duplex UNS S 32304 coupling construction in the ZN616/11, which tolerates abrasive sand particulates up to 100 g/m³.
Which electrical power source and supply voltage are necessary for this borehole pump?
Powering the ZN616-11 necessitates a 6-inch NEMA compatible L6W motor providing 9.3 kW on 380–415 V, 50 Hz, three-phase with 20.5 A current, accommodating water temperatures up to 35°C and immersion to 350 meters.
Does this borehole pump have a built-in check valve and can it operate on an incline?
Backflow prevention is managed by an integrated stainless steel non-return valve in the ZN 616 11 microcast discharge head, and horizontal mounting is supported at a minimum recommended 3° incline with the motor at the lowest position.
What is the maximum vertical lift rating supported by this borehole pumping unit?
Operating across challenging underground depths, the ZN_616_11 develops a maximum dynamic head rating of approximately 135.6 m to overcome tall vertical risers and pipe friction.
What diameter pipe fits the top delivery port and how much water volume does it discharge?
Fitted with a heavy-duty Rp 2 1/2" (65 mm) discharge connection, the ZN616/11 produces a maximum delivery capacity of approximately 367 L/Min for installations in standard 6-inch borehole installations.
