Engineered for high-pressure clean water handling in industrial and commercial building services, the Lowara 5HM17S22M provides a stable hydraulic solution for operations requiring consistent flow. This horizontal multistage pump is suited for applications ranging from secondary pressure boosting systems and process water movement to specialized cooling circuitry, effectively addressing the need for precise liquid circulation in variable load environments.
The system achieves a Max Head 121 m and a Max Flow 142 L/Min. Designed for integration into demanding professional installations, the unit features a 2.72 kW motor input and connections sized at 32 mm for the inlet and 25 mm for the delivery. It is constructed to handle liquid temperatures ranging from -10°C to +60°C, ensuring compliance with diverse system requirements for both process heating and cooling cycles.
Hydraulic movement is managed by a multistage assembly featuring an AISI 304 stainless steel construction, ensuring structural integrity and consistent flow stability. The pump leverages an IE3 efficiency motor to optimize energy consumption during continuous duty cycles. This configuration provides smooth, quiet circulation, reducing the mechanical stresses typically found in single-stage pumping setups while maintaining high volumetric efficiency across the entire performance curve.
The installation is anchored by a close-coupled TEFC motor architecture, providing IP 55 protection against environmental contamination. Utilizing a robust casing design with advanced O-ring sealing, the pump ensures airtight connections and long-term operational consistency. Internal components are oriented to facilitate easy access for maintenance, while the stainless steel wetted parts support suitability for potable water and aggressive liquid environments as specified by material grades.
Features:
- AISI 304 stainless steel hydraulic construction
- IE3 premium efficiency motor classification
- TEFC motor enclosure for environmental protection
- Suitable for WRAS and ACS certified water systems
- Integrated 2-pole squirrel-cage motor technology
- Threaded delivery and suction port orientation
