The Lowara 3HM02P-PT18 pressure system combines an integrated pump with an 18-litre APT pressure vessel to provide a complete water supply solution for domestic pressure boosting, household water distribution, and garden irrigation. This system is designed for domestic water pressure boosting, household water distribution, and garden irrigation systems. It is suitable for standard floor-mounted setups or compact equipment spaces.
Constructed from 304 Stainless Steel, the pump casing is resistant to corrosion. The Technopolymer impeller measures 94 mm and is specified for clean liquids. The system operates with liquids up to 60°C.
The 0.5 kW electric motor operates on a 240 V power supply. This motor draws a nominal operating current of 2.55 Amps. The pump achieves a maximum head of 21.5 meters and a maximum flow of 70 L/Min. Port connections feature a 25 mm inlet and a 25 mm discharge outlet.
Thermal protection incorporates Class F motor insulation with an IP55 enclosure rating. The pump is designed for surface-mounted installation and is not intended for submerged operation. A ceramic, carbon, and EPDM mechanical shaft seal provides fluid containment. A robust APT-18 pressure tank with an 18 Litre volume is integrated to manage system pressure fluctuations and minimize motor start frequency.
