Product Overview
The Lowara 5HM04P-PT8 delivers a compelling combination of flow and head for demanding residential and light commercial applications. This high-flow pressure-boosting system pairs a 39.7-metre pump with an 8-litre APT pressure vessel, making it suitable for larger domestic distribution, commercial irrigation, and other applications where both volume and pressure are required.
The pump features an AISI 304 stainless steel body with Noryl™ impellers. Maximum head is approximately 39.7 metres and maximum flow is 120 litres per minute. The 0.75 kW motor operates on 220-240 V single-phase, drawing 4.79 Amps. Suction is Rp 32 mm and discharge is Rp 25 mm. The pump is rated for clean liquids up to 60°C.
The 8-litre pressure vessel reduces pump cycling during low-demand periods. The mechanical seal is ceramic, carbon, and EPDM. The motor enclosure is IP55 with Class F insulation. Thermal protection is provided by an automatic reset overload device. The horizontal close-coupled configuration is designed for floor mounting.
Installation requires a level, frost-protected surface with adequate ventilation. The pre-wired terminal junction box simplifies electrical connection. The pump is certified for drinking water use under WRAS and ACS. The system is intended for clean water applications and should be installed with adequate clearance for maintenance access.
