High-head domestic supply and elevated irrigation systems are the primary functions for this high-performance automatic kit. It is specifically designed to manage clean water transfer where vertical lift or long pipe runs are required. The unit is optimized for households seeking a high-pressure potable water supply with automatic start/stop functionality.
Operating on a 240v single-phase supply, the 0.9 kW motor draws a rated current of 5.7 Amps at 50Hz. The performance specifications indicate a maximum total head of 70.5 m and a maximum flow rate of 80 L/Min. These hydraulic parameters establish the capability for high-pressure delivery across extended residential pipe networks.
The pump features a horizontal multistage centrifugal design that provides self-priming functionality up to a depth of 8m. This innovative hydraulic system is coupled to a latest-generation induction motor, focusing on power efficiency and quiet service. The entire assembly meets AS/NZS 4020 certifications for use with drinking water.
Construction consists of an AISI 304 stainless steel pump body and motor shaft, offering high-level protection against rust and wear. The internal hydraulics utilize fiberglass-reinforced PPO impellers and a professional-grade carbon/ceramic mechanical seal. Standard supply includes an AISI 304 pressure switch and a 20L stainless steel pressure tank.
