Product Overview
Engineered for high-resistance commercial applications, the Grundfos UPS 50-180 F 415V circulator pump supplies elevated discharge head and high volumetric flow for multi-storey heating and cooling plants. It drives thermal water through tall building risers and dense heat exchanger bundles.
The 280 mm port-to-port casing is manufactured from grade EN-GJL-250 cast iron, holding a corrosion-resistant AISI 304 stainless steel impeller and aluminium stator frame. Operating pressure is rated to 10 bar with fluid temperature limits between -10°C and 120°C, and total unit mass is 25 kg.
A 3-phase 400-415 V 50 Hz motor has a maximum power input (P1) of 1000 W (1 kW) at 2.0 A at maximum speed, providing three manual speed positions. Peak hydraulic performance yields a maximum head of 18 m and a flow rate of 18.7 m³/h (312 L/Min) through DN 50 DIN flanged ports.
A sealless canned rotor configuration lubricates its ceramic radial bearings using the circulating fluid, preventing external leakage paths. Class H motor insulation and an IPX4D housing combine with integrated thermal protection contacts for system safety.
FEATURES
- Generates 18 m maximum head to service multi-storey commercial building risers

Through what delivery flow volume can this large bore circulator move fluid across its connection port?
Minimizing piping friction through DN 50 flanged connections, the UPS 50-180 F produces a maximum delivery flow capacity of approximately 312 L/Min.
Which cast iron metallurgy and internal component materials ensure long term durability?
Structural reliability under heavy thermal expansion is provided by the Grundfos UPS 50-180 F utilizing a heavy Cast Iron housing with stainless steel impeller.
What motor power kilowatt capacity and supply voltage energize this heavy commercial circulator?
Supplying multi-speed hydronic propulsion, the drive on the UPS-50-180-F draws up to 1.0 kW (1000 W) connecting to 415 V drawing a rated current of 2 Amps.
What operating pressure in bar and fluid temperature range are certified for this three speed pump?
District heating specifications certify that the Grundfos UPS 50 180 F tolerates operational pressures up to 10 bar across liquid temperatures from -10°C to 120°C.
What peak dynamic head elevation does this heavy duty flanged circulator overcome?
Supplying vertical circulating lift across larger distribution headers, the UPS_50_180_F develops a maximum dynamic head of approximately 18 m.
