Product Overview
Reliable water pressure is essential for comfortable modern living, and the Lowara 3HM03P-PT8 ensures it is delivered consistently. This packaged system combines a horizontal multistage pump with an 8-litre APT pressure vessel, providing stable pressure for domestic supply, garden watering, and light commercial transfer applications in buildings where installation space is limited.
Constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel with Noryl™ impellers, the pump generates a maximum head of approximately 31.2 metres and a maximum flow rate of 70 litres per minute. The 0.5 kW motor runs on a single-phase 220-240 V supply with a rated current of 2.9 Amps. Suction and discharge ports are threaded Rp 25 mm. The pump handles clean liquids at temperatures up to 60°C.
The 8-litre pressure vessel dampens pressure fluctuations and reduces motor cycling. The mechanical seal is ceramic, carbon, and EPDM. The motor is protected to IP55 and insulated to Class F. Automatic reset thermal protection is included as standard. The horizontal close-coupled configuration is designed for floor mounting in equipment rooms or utility areas with adequate clearance for maintenance access.
Electrical connections are made through a pre-wired terminal junction box. The pump is certified for drinking water use under WRAS and ACS. The compact footprint suits installations where space is at a premium, including small plant rooms and domestic cupboards. The unit is supplied as a complete package requiring only plumbing and electrical connections to commission.

Where is this booster pump mounted and how does the integrated diaphragm tank prevent rapid motor starts?
Surface floor installation in a dry, ventilated area is recommended for the 3HM03P-PT8, which includes an integrated 8-litre APT pressure vessel that dampens line fluctuations and prevents frequent motor cycling during minor water draw.
What total vertical discharge elevation can this surface pressure pump achieve?
Delivering strong vertical elevation pressure, the 3HM03P-PT-8 produces a maximum dynamic head of approximately 31.2 m to maintain constant plumbing force.
Which thread dimensions fit the suction and delivery ports and what is the top flow?
Connecting delivery piping is completed via Rp 25 mm (1") discharge and Rp 25 mm (1") suction, with the 3HM 03P PT8 discharging up to a maximum flow of approximately 70 L/Min.
How does this multistage booster resist internal corrosion and is it safe for household water supplies?
Long-term corrosion protection is assured by AISI 304 stainless steel pump casing, Technopolymer impellers, and ceramic, carbon, and EPDM mechanical seal in the 3HM_03P_PT8, which holds drinking water certification under WRAS and ACS for fluids up to 60°C.
Which electrical supply and kilowatt rating are necessary to power this surface booster motor?
Electrical specifications for the 3HM03P-PT8 require a 0.5 kW motor connection supplied by 220–240 V, 50 Hz, single-phase, pulling 2.9 A with an IP55 dust and moisture enclosure.
