Residential solar collector systems requiring increased circulation capacity can utilise the Onga LeisureTime Solar LTP550S for heated pool water transfer through rooftop heating banks and return circuits. The pump is purpose-designed for solar heating operation where stable recirculation and reliable outdoor performance are important throughout continuous operating cycles.
The unit operates from a single-phase 240V electrical supply and delivers 0.785 kW power input together with 0.55 kW motor output. Hydraulic capability reaches approximately 270 L/Min with maximum head performance extending to approximately 15 m, supporting larger residential solar heating layouts and extended circulation pipework systems.
Self-priming functionality assists with dependable circulation through elevated solar collector installations while simplifying startup procedures during routine operation. Integrated thermal overload motor protection contributes to operational safety during continuous-duty service, and the built-in drain-down clacker assists with drainage management during shutdown or maintenance procedures.
An IPX5 Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled motor arrangement is incorporated to help shield the motor assembly from outdoor water and dust exposure. The pump also includes self-aligning barrel unions for both 40 mm and 50 mm plumbing systems together with an electrophoretic coated end-shield, stainless steel shaft, and mechanical seal construction suited to solar heating applications.
