Relying on surgical-grade AISI 316 stainless steel, this Lowara assembly ensures chemical resilience for challenging process water environments. Designed for compact footprints, the 1HM08N05M serves secondary water networks, agricultural irrigation, and pressure boosting duties. The hydraulic configuration manages clean fluid transfer where structural corrosion resistance is a priority for ongoing site maintenance and system longevity.
Operational threshold limits are defined by a Max Head 47.1 m alongside a Max Flow 40 L/Min. The drive system consumes a maximum power of 0.65 kW at 240v, maintaining stable output curves across varying demand cycles. Rated at 3.5 Amps, this pump optimizes electrical consumption for continuous operations while adhering to strict hydraulic performance standards.
Fluid dynamics are governed by a multistage impeller arrangement crafted entirely from AISI 316L stainless steel. This configuration minimizes turbulence through the internal casing, effectively balancing flow velocities while sustaining consistent pressure heads. The close-coupled arrangement eliminates misalignment between the motor shaft and hydraulic ends, ensuring minimal vibration during startup and transition states.
Housing consists of a single-piece fabricated stainless steel body secured with high-grade sealing components. The TEFC motor is rated to IP55 standards, safeguarding internal electrical windings against environmental particulate ingress. Plumbing integration is achieved via 25 mm threaded suction and delivery ports, allowing for straightforward field installation into existing pipework configurations.
Features:
- Integrated silicon carbide mechanical seal faces for wear resistance
- TEFC motor enclosure provides protection against external moisture
- Certified for safe potable water distribution compliance
- Supports liquid temperatures ranging from -10°C up to +60°C
- Asynchronous squirrel-cage rotor architecture for consistent torque
- Designed for 2-pole operation at approximately 2900 rpm
