Product Overview
For borehole installations requiring enhanced motor material durability, the Lowara Z855-01-3S pairs a 304 stainless steel pump end with a 316 stainless steel motor housing. This 8-inch submersible electric pump delivers high-volume water supply from deep wells and distribution networks with a maximum flow of 1333 L/Min and a maximum head of 27.0 metres from its single-stage configuration.
The pump end features semi-axial hydraulics with stainless steel impellers and diffusers, while the 316 stainless steel motor housing offers superior corrosion resistance where conditions are particularly aggressive. Technopolymer POM-C wear rings and an AISI 431 stainless steel shaft provide mechanical integrity, with the unit handling sand content up to 100 g/m³ and water temperatures not exceeding 25°C.
A 5.5 kW water-filled L6W motor operates on a 415v three-phase supply at 12.7 Amps, with NEMA-standard coupling and flange dimensions. The motor is rated for immersion depths up to 350 metres and includes an integrated non-return valve in the delivery casing to prevent backflow.
