Product Overview
The Lowara 5HM06S-PT8 is a high-flow pressure-boosting system with stainless steel hydraulics, combining a 41.5-metre pump with an 8-litre APT pressure vessel. This packaged unit is intended for residential and light commercial applications requiring substantial flow and corrosion resistance in clean water service.
The AISI 304 stainless steel pump body and impellers deliver a maximum head of approximately 41.5 metres and a maximum flow rate of 142 litres per minute. The 0.75 kW motor operates on 220-240 V single-phase, drawing 4.8 Amps. Suction is Rp 32 mm and discharge is Rp 25 mm. The pump handles clean liquids up to 60°C.
The 8-litre pressure vessel reduces pump cycling during low-demand periods. The mechanical seal is ceramic, carbon, and EPDM. The motor enclosure is IP55 with Class F insulation. Thermal protection is provided by an automatic reset overload device. The horizontal close-coupled configuration is designed for floor mounting.
Installation requires a level, frost-protected surface with adequate ventilation. The pre-wired terminal junction box simplifies electrical connection. The pump is certified for drinking water use under WRAS and ACS. The stainless steel hydraulic components provide increased corrosion resistance in clean-water applications.

What does the 8-litre pressure tank do for the Lowara 5HM06S-PT8?
The 8L tank acts as a handy water buffer. When you turn on a tap just a little bit, water comes straight from the tank first. This stops the pump from starting up unnecessarily, saving power and protecting the motor from wear.
Does the Lowara 5HM06S PT8 require a lot of ongoing maintenance?
Not at all. It's designed for hassle-free daily operation with long-life sealed bearings and heavy-duty mechanical shaft seals. Just keep your water inlet strainer clear and it'll run reliably for years.
How much water flow and pressure can I get from the Lowara 5HM06S PT8?
You get up to 142 litres per minute of water flow and a max pressure head of 41.5 metres. That's plenty of punch to run multiple showers, taps, or garden hoses at the same time without annoying pressure drops.
What materials is the Lowara 5HM06S_PT8 made from and can it handle warm water?
It's built with a 304 stainless steel body and stainless steel impellers, so it won't rust or corrode over time. It easily handles clean water at temperatures up to 60°C.
