Overview
The DAB S4 pump end is the multi-impeller hydraulic end of the S4 4 in borehole pump, sold without a motor for pairing with a 4 in NEMA motor or replacing a worn hydraulic. It pumps clean water from wells of 4 in and up, or from tanks and cisterns. Each pump end is built for the motor horsepower in its model name: S4 7/10 is the 7 GPM class for a 1 HP motor. The 5 to 25 GPM classes are also listed complete with a Tesla motor.
-
Sand resistant: technopolymer impellers in stainless steel adjustment rings.
-
Stainless hydraulics: liner, shaft, coupling, suction filter and cable guard in stainless steel; cast AISI 304 suction and discharge.
-
Built-in non-return valve, removable.
-
High-efficiency impellers designed to the PEI directive from 25 GPM up.
What Ships and What It Needs to Run
Included: the S4 pump end with its built-in non-return valve, integrated suction filter and stainless cable guard. No motor.
4 in motor required, ordered separately. A DAB Tesla 4TW 2-wire or 4GG 3-wire motor, or any NEMA 4 in motor of the same horsepower; the motors for each horsepower are in the table under Models & Performance.
Motor control required, ordered separately. A DAB 4CBUS control box for a 4GG single-phase motor; installer-supplied protection for a three-phase motor; none for the 4TW 2-wire.
Drop pipe, drop cable and splice kit: sized to your setting depth and ordered separately.
Genuine DAB equipment, factory-new in original packaging — sold and supported by Watermain Supply, an independent industrial supplier. Watermain Supply is an Authorized Stocking DAB Distributor.
24-Month DAB Warranty
Covered for 24 months from the date of purchase under DAB’s published warranty terms, evidenced by the invoice or delivery document.

Models & Performance — Will It Do What You Need?
Pick the flow class, then the horsepower. Total head is the depth to the pumping water level, plus 2.31 ft for every PSI you want at the tank, plus drop-pipe friction. Open a class to see its heads.

From DAB’s depth × pressure grid, S4 Technical Sheet (60191756), pp. 4-22: each head is the highest total head at which DAB prints at least that flow. 0 GPM is the printed shut-off; the last column is the highest flow every build in the class reaches. Drop-pipe friction excluded. Linked classes are sold complete, with output at 30 and 50 PSI by depth.
