Product Overview
Garden sprinkler irrigation, rainwater harvesting and general clean water transfer are handled by the Lowara 8SC2/05CL20. This high-flow multi-stage submersible pump is suitable for residential and light commercial applications requiring high volume at low head from boreholes, tanks and reservoirs.
Weighing 13.7 kg, the pump handles suspended sand up to 25 g/m³ and passes solids up to 2 mm. A 0.55 kW 240V single-phase motor draws 4.25 Amps and delivers a maximum head of 17.9 metres and a flow of 180 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 compact design and decentered discharge manifold make it suitable for restricted installation spaces.
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.
