Automatic household water systems often require compact pressure units capable of maintaining stable water delivery while reducing frequent pump cycling during daily usage. The Calpeda P08-CTM 61 pressure boosting unit combines a peripheral electropump with an integrated 8-litre pressure tank for dependable automatic pressure operation across domestic clean water applications.
The single-phase 230V motor operates with 0.55 kW P1 input power while generating operating head up to 41 metres with flow performance reaching 38.3 L/Min. Its peripheral hydraulic configuration is designed for pressure-oriented operation, making the unit suitable for household pressure systems, domestic water supply arrangements, utility boosting duties, and controlled clean water transfer applications.
The hydraulic stage incorporates a precision-machined Brass CW617N EN 12167 impeller configured to maintain efficient pressure generation relative to the pump’s compact dimensions. The integrated 8L pressure tank assists automatic system operation while helping stabilize pressure fluctuations during water demand conditions inside domestic installations.
Hydraulic body components including the pump casing, lantern bracket, and casing cover are manufactured from Cast Iron GJL 200 EN 1561 for dependable operating durability. The rotating assembly incorporates a Steel 1.4104 EN 10088 (AISI 430F) shaft together with a Carbon-Ceramic-NBR mechanical seal arrangement. Integrated thermal protection, IP54 motor protection, and Class F insulation support reliable continuous-duty service conditions.
The unit is suitable for clean liquids without abrasive particles, suspended solids, or aggressive substances incompatible with hydraulic materials. Its compact pressure boosting configuration supports dependable automatic water supply performance across residential and household water handling systems.
