The Calpeda PECO-CTM 61 is a compact peripheral turbine pressure system designed to deliver high pressure at low flow rates for domestic water supply, boosting and transfer applications. Based on the CTM 61 peripheral pump, the unit combines robust construction with an electronic controller for fully automatic operation.
Featuring a brass peripheral impeller and close-coupled design, the pump is capable of generating high pressure even with relatively small motor power. This makes it ideal for boosting mains pressure, supplying water to taps and appliances, garden irrigation and transferring clean water from tanks. The cast iron pump body ensures durability and reliable performance in everyday residential use.
Powered by a 0.37 kW single-phase motor, the CTM 61 delivers flow rates up to approximately 35 litres per minute with a maximum head around 41 metres. The motor is designed for continuous duty and incorporates thermal protection to safeguard against overheating and overload.
The integrated electronic controller automatically starts and stops the pump according to water demand, maintains system pressure and provides dry-run protection to prevent damage if water supply is lost. Suitable for clean, non-abrasive liquids free from solids, the system offers simple installation and dependable operation for household pressure boosting.
Compact, efficient and easy to install, the PECO-CTM 61 provides a practical solution where high pressure is required from a small footprint pump system.
