Product Overview
When mains pressure falls short of household demands, the Lowara 3HM02P-PT8 delivers a complete pressure-boosting solution in a compact package. This system pairs a reliable multistage pump with an 8-litre APT pressure vessel, maintaining stable water pressure for domestic distribution, garden irrigation, and general water transfer where installation space is at a premium.
The pump features an AISI 304 stainless steel body with Noryl™ impellers. It produces a maximum head of approximately 21.5 metres and a maximum flow rate of 70 litres per minute. The 0.5 kW motor operates on a 220-240 V single-phase supply and draws 2.55 Amps at rated load. Both suction and discharge ports are threaded Rp 25 mm. The pump is rated for clean liquids up to 60°C.
The 8-litre APT pressure vessel stores pressurised water, which reduces the frequency of pump starts during periods of low demand. The mechanical seal is a ceramic, carbon, and EPDM assembly. The motor enclosure is rated IP55, and the winding insulation is Class F. Automatic reset thermal overload protection is incorporated as standard.
Installation requires a flat, level surface in a frost-protected area with adequate ventilation. The terminal junction box is pre-wired to simplify electrical connection. The pump is certified for drinking water use under WRAS and ACS. Its compact footprint makes it suitable for equipment rooms and domestic utility spaces where space is limited.

Is the Lowara 3HM02P/PT8 motor safe to install outside in the weather?
Yes, it features an IP55 weatherproof casing to handle outdoor rain and dust. It operates on 220–240V single-phase power and includes built-in thermal overload protection.
What materials is the Lowara 3HM02P_PT8 made from and can it handle warm water?
It is constructed with a corrosion-resistant 304 Stainless Steel body and impellers. It safely handles clean water at temperatures up to 60°C.
Why does the Lowara 3HM02P-PT8 come fitted with an 8-litre pressure tank?
The 8L tank keeps water pressurized so the pump doesn't have to start up every time you open a tap slightly. It stops rapid motor cycling, saving power and protecting the motor from wear.
How much water flow and head pressure can I get from the Lowara 3HM02P PT8?
You get up to 70 L/Min of water flow and a max pressure head of 21.5 m. That provides strong, steady tap pressure across multi-story bathrooms and garden hoses.
