Agricultural irrigation and industrial water supply networks rely on pumps that sustain performance under continuous load. The Lowara ZN612/9-3N submersible pump delivers reliable groundwater extraction with its 6-inch AISI 316 stainless steel wet end and radial flow hydraulic design. The microcast housing and stainless steel discharge head provide a durable foundation for demanding borehole applications.
The engineering choices here directly benefit the end user. AISI 316 construction resists corrosion from aggressive groundwater, reducing maintenance frequency and extending service intervals. The stainless steel radial flow impeller with removable wear ring handles suspended sand up to 100 grams per cubic metre, while the integrated suction strainer protects internal components. The replaceable coupling simplifies maintenance without full pump extraction, minimising downtime.
Operating on a 415V three-phase supply, the 5.5 kW motor draws 12.7 Amps and delivers 275 L/Min maximum flow. Shut-off head extends to 102.1 metres, with the 65 mm discharge port connecting to standard piping. Performance tolerances comply with EN ISO 9906 Grade 3B, ensuring reliable operation across the duty range.
Class F insulation and IP68 rating support immersion up to 350 metres. The Duplex stainless steel shaft and AISI 316L tie rods provide mechanical strength, while NEMA coupling compatibility simplifies motor assembly. The unit complies with ErP ecodesign standards, contributing to lower lifecycle energy costs.
