Product Overview
High-volume residential and commercial water supply with automatic level control is delivered by the Lowara 5SC5/09CG20. This multi-stage submersible pump features an integrated float switch for unattended operation from boreholes, tanks and reservoirs for pressure boosting and irrigation.
Weighing 16 kg, the pump handles suspended sand up to 25 g/m³ and passes solids up to 2 mm. A 0.9 kW 240V single-phase motor draws 5.72 Amps and delivers a maximum head of 48.9 metres and a flow of 120 L/min through a 32 mm outlet.
AISI 304 stainless steel construction with technopolymer impellers and stainless steel diffusers provides corrosion resistance and reliable hydraulic performance. The float switch provides automatic operation based on water level, eliminating the need for external control equipment.
Class F insulation and a double mechanical seal with oil chamber protect the motor, with a silicon carbide external face resisting abrasion. The pump is rated for continuous operation at depths up to 17 metres. A 20 metre cable, capacitor and automatic reset thermal overload protection are included.
