Read our privacy policyKeep basement and other below-grade areas protected with the iON BA50i, a high-capacity sump pump built for demanding water removal. Its 1/2 HP motor, 78 GPM pumping capacity, and 1/2-inch solids handling make it suitable for residential sump, dewatering, and effluent applications.
Built with cast iron and stainless steel components, the BA50i is designed for durability in demanding environments. The iON Digital Level Control provides automatic operation using solid-state sensing without moving parts or contact points, while thermal overload protection adds an extra layer of motor protection.
The iON BA50i is suited for residential sump systems, helping remove groundwater and surface water from basement and below-grade areas. Its high pumping capacity makes it suitable for applications where efficient water removal is needed.
The BA50i can also be used for general dewatering and effluent applications when its pumping capacity, solids handling, and electrical requirements match the system requirements.
The standard iON Switch automatically controls pump operation through solid-state digital level sensing. With no moving parts or contact points, the switch eliminates common mechanical components found in traditional float switches.
An iON+ Switch upgrade is also available, adding a high-water alarm and LED indicators for enhanced sump monitoring.
The BA50i uses cast iron and stainless steel components for durability and corrosion resistance. A stainless steel intake screen helps limit debris from entering the pump, while the cast iron vortex impeller, carbon ceramic mechanical seal, and thermal overload protection support continued operation.
The BA50i has a maximum head of 29 feet and a 2-inch NPT discharge. Actual flow depends on total head, discharge piping, fittings, and other system conditions.
A minimum basin size of 18 inches by 24 inches is recommended. The pump includes a 10-foot power cord. Always follow the manufacturer's installation instructions and applicable plumbing and electrical codes.
The iON BA50i includes a 3-year residential warranty. Before installation, verify the required basin dimensions, discharge piping, electrical supply, and pump configuration. Refer to the manufacturer's operation manual for complete installation, operation, maintenance, and safety requirements.
The iON BA50i is a 1/2 HP submersible sump pump designed for dependable water removal in basement sump and dewatering applications. Operating at 115V with a 10-foot power cord, it delivers up to 78 GPM of pumping capacity and handles solids up to 1/2 inch.
Built with a durable cast iron and stainless steel construction, the BA50i features an energy-efficient motor, cast iron vortex impeller, and thermal overload protection for reliable operation. Its manual configuration provides straightforward pump operation for applications where automatic control is not required.
