Product information
The Pentax PMT 65 A is a premium, Italian-made self-priming peripheral electric water pump designed for domestic house and garden applications as well as light industrial systems. Unlike standard models, the PMT 65 A features built-in self-priming functionality, making it exceptionally efficient at handling liquids saturated with air or gas bubbles without losing prime.
Featuring a compact peripheral vortex design with frontal suction, the PMT 65 A generates 3 to 7 times higher pressure than conventional pumps of similar size. It excels at water supply and pressure boosting with low-pressure expansion tanks, garden and orchard irrigation, and drawing clean water from storage tanks or reservoirs.
Built to last, the PMT 65 A features a rugged cast iron casing, brass impeller, ceramic-graphite mechanical seal, and stainless steel AISI 416 motor shaft. Driven by a robust 2-pole 230V single-phase induction motor (4.0A), it reliably handles liquid temperatures up to +90°C under working pressures up to 8 bar.
