Product Overview
Driven by an integrated 5.5 kW drive motor, the TPE3 100-230 single-stage inline centrifugal pump provides continuous liquid circulation across commercial HVAC networks, chilled water loops, and facility hydronic circuits. Its in-line structural layout incorporates matching DN 100 inlet and outlet flanges to streamline plant room pipework installation.
At full duty speed, hydraulic throughput reaches 1960 L/Min with a maximum head threshold of 14.7 m. Casing construction uses robust electrocoated cast iron (EN-GJL-250) to resist internal surface oxidation. Fluid transfer is driven by a Cast iron impeller paired with an industry-standard BQQE shaft seal. Physical net weight is 124 kg.
Power requirements specify a 3 x 380-500 V Three-phase electrical supply rated for 5.5 kW output, with full-load running current measuring 10.5 Amps. Operating liquid temperatures span from -25°C to 120°C across active HVAC circuits. Standardized DN 100 suction and DN 100 discharge flanged ports facilitate direct line insertion.
The drive motor is housed within an IP55 rated enclosure featuring Class F winding insulation to protect against thermal stress. Built-in frequency control with an integrated PI controller enables automatic variable speed adjustment according to active hydronic load. Maintenance operations utilize a service-friendly top-pull-out design, allowing complete rotor disassembly while the cast iron housing remains fixed in the pipe run.
Features
- Maintenance-free BQQE mechanical shaft seal prevents fluid leakage and maintains seal integrity under elevated working pressures.
- IP55 motor enclosure protection guards internal electrical components against ambient dust accumulation and water splash ingress.
- Class F thermal motor insulation permits continuous operation under elevated fluid temperatures ranging from -25°C to 120°C.
- Equal suction and discharge port diameters enable straightforward inline installation without requiring custom pipe reducer spools.
- Integrated variable frequency converter with PI controller modulates motor RPM dynamically to balance flow demand and lower energy usage.
- Top-pull-out structural layout enables complete drive head and impeller extraction without disconnecting the pump casing from system piping.
- High-efficiency motor design delivers optimized hydraulic throughput with minimal electrical power consumption across variable duty cycles.

During systematic hydronic duty, what fluid temperature ratings and pressure boundaries apply?
Handling broad climate control demands, Grundfos TPE3 100-230 accommodates circulating liquid media across -25°C to 120°C at pressures to 16 bar.
Regulating circulating momentum dynamically, what maximum delivery head does this unit provide?
Adapting motor output to prevent excess loop pressure, TPE3 100-230 achieves a peak dynamic head of approximately 14.7 m.
Modulating liquid displacement across multi-story risers, how many liters per minute are circulated?
The electronically managed runner of TPE3-100-230 maintains an operational liquid delivery of approximately 1960 L/Min.
How do the cast iron housing and specialized impeller resist erosive fluid circulation?
The flanged wet end of TPE3 100 230 integrates an EN-GJL-250 cast iron pressure volute with an aerodynamically balanced cast iron impeller (EN-GJL-200).
Under full electrical frequency, what kilowatt rating, incoming supply, and current are drawn?
Electrical feeds must provide a three-phase 415 V supply for TPE3/100/230, whose 5.5 kW motor pulls 10.5 Amps at peak capacity.
