Description
Efficient, Automatic Water Pressure for Small Homes and Gardens
The MAX PUMP 0.55kW Stainless Steel Jet Booster Pump is a compact and reliable self-priming centrifugal pump ideal for domestic water supply systems where efficiency and consistent pressure are key. Powered by a 0.55 kW motor (approximately 0.75 HP), this pump efficiently draws clean water from shallow sources like tanks and cisterns, providing reliable boosting for smaller homes, cottages, and garden use.
As a dedicated booster system, this unit typically includes an automatic pressure controller (Flow Control) that manages the pump's operation. This smart control ensures the pump only runs when you open a tap and stops automatically when the demand ceases, eliminating the need for a separate expansion vessel. The pump features a durable, corrosion-resistant stainless steel (S/S) body and maintains a strong self-priming ability, capable of suction lift up to 9 metres, making setup straightforward.

-
How does the 0.55kW model compare to the 0.75kW model?
-
The 0.55kW model has a lower maximum flow rate and maximum head (pressure). It is more suitable for smaller properties or shorter pipe runs, offering better energy efficiency for lower demand.
-
-
Does the pump need to be protected from the weather?
-
Yes. As an IP-rated surface pump, it must be installed in a dry, well-ventilated, and covered area (like a pump house or shed) to protect it from rain, direct sun, and freezing temperatures.
-
-
What is the minimum water level required to start the pump?
-
When functioning automatically, the controller requires a small flow to register demand. The pump itself must be manually primed (filled with water) before first use, and the water source must always be within the 9-metre suction lift range.
