Navigating complex industrial fluid delivery demands a solution that balances material resilience with operational precision. The Lowara 5HM17S30T addresses these needs by combining a compact, high-efficiency horizontal architecture with construction materials suitable for aggressive or high-demand water transfer. It serves as a cornerstone for circulation loops where pressure stability is critical, ensuring seamless performance within varied mechanical setups. The unit is engineered to integrate fluidly into existing piping arrays, allowing for direct installation into standard supply frameworks where spatial constraints often dictate equipment choice.
Performance parameters are governed by an IE3 energy-efficient motor capable of sustaining consistent hydraulic output. Operational threshold limits are defined by a Max Head 125 m alongside a Max Flow 142 L/Min. Rated at 2.77 kW / 415v, the system maintains stable pressure-flow characteristics even under fluctuating load conditions, minimizing energy consumption while maximizing volumetric efficiency during prolonged operation cycles.
Fluid dynamics are governed by a multi-stage closed impeller arrangement fabricated from AISI 304 stainless steel. This design ensures that hydraulic energy is converted with minimal internal turbulence, promoting smooth flow across all stages of the pump body. The internal geometry is specifically refined to optimize suction side efficiency, allowing the unit to maintain steady throughput without cavitation risk, effectively stabilizing circulation within closed-loop thermal or process systems.
Housing integrity is provided by an AISI 304 stainless steel casing, designed for compatibility with liquid temperatures ranging from -10°C to +120°C. The motor features an IP 55 protection rating, shielding internal components from dust and moisture ingress, while the electric pump assembly holds an IP X5 rating. All seals utilize high-grade elastomer materials, ensuring long-term leakage resistance and alignment with diverse industrial safety standards for clean water handling and chemical-process circulation.
Features:
- TEFC 2-pole surface motor configuration for consistent operational stability
- Short-circuit squirrel-cage rotor design reducing total system maintenance needs
- Silicon carbide mechanical seal faces for improved chemical and abrasion resistance
- Class 155 insulation standards safeguarding against high-temperature motor stress
- Standardized 32mm suction and 25mm delivery port sizes for simplified plumbing
- TIG welded structural sleeve housing for enhanced pressure containment performance
