Product Overview
Operating on a 18.5 kW motor drive, the TPE3 80-560 single-stage inline pump handles fluid transfer across commercial building services, cooling tower circuits, and hydronic heating headers. Standardized DN 80 suction and discharge flanges permit inline line mounting, eliminating complex foundation coupling procedures.
Liquid handling performance provides a nominal flow rate of 2132 L/Min against a maximum head limit of 44.5 m. The cast iron volute body (EN-GJL-250) offers corrosion barrier protection for hydronic loops. The internal rotor houses a Cast iron impeller assembly supported by a BQQE shaft seal. Equipment net weight stands at 145 kg.
Engineered for Three-phase electrical systems (3 x 380-480 V), the 18.5 kW motor draws 33.0 Amps full-load current. Operating liquid temperatures cover a wide -25°C to 120°C span up to 16 bar system working pressure. Opposite DN 80 inlet and DN 80 discharge flanges provide standard pipe header compatibility.
Enclosure protection meets IP55 weatherization standards, supported by Class F motor insulation against high ambient temperatures. An onboard frequency converter with closed-loop PI control allows real-time variable speed tuning. The top-pull-out power head geometry permits technicians to perform seal or impeller maintenance while keeping the volute casing installed in system pipework headers.
Features
- Corrosion-resistant Cast iron impeller rotor is precision-balanced to minimize operational vibration and extend bearing lifecycle.
- Standardized DN 80 flanged connections comply with EN 1092-2 for seamless drop-in integration into commercial pipe headers.
- 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.

Matching fluid pressure to thermal demand shifts, what maximum vertical elevation is maintained?
Precision variable speed mechanics allow Grundfos TPE3 80-560 to maintain a peak dynamic head of approximately 44.5 m.
Across modulating facility pipework, what peak volumetric liquid capacity is maintained under load?
Through variable speed inverter technology, TPE3 80-560 sustains a peak volumetric circulation of approximately 2132 L/Min.
How are the pressure-bearing volute and rotating assembly engineered for mechanical endurance?
The robust physical build of TPE3-80-560 features an EN-GJL-250 cast iron volute chamber with an aerodynamically balanced cast iron impeller (EN-GJL-200).
What incoming power requirements, operating voltage, and operational amperage apply to this unit?
Connected to a standard three-phase 415 V line, TPE3 80 560 operates its integrated 18.5 kW motor drive with an amp rating of 33.0 Amps.
Across varying media conditions, what thermal boundaries and line pressure ratings are supported?
Hydronic liquid temperatures ranging from -25°C to 120°C are accommodated by TPE3/80/560 alongside maximum system pressures of 16 bar.
