Product Overview
Commercial heating installations and larger residential systems are often built on wider bore pipework from the outset to handle greater heat load. The Grundfos UPS 32-80 matches that with a 2 inch connection, sized for higher-volume closed-loop circuits where narrower connections would restrict flow.
At full speed the pump moves approx. 182 L/Min with a maximum head up to 8 m, with three selectable settings stepping power from 140 W to 230 W and current reaching 1.01 A on a 1 x 240 V supply. The wider connection reduces flow resistance at equivalent volumes compared with the 1 1/2 inch models, useful as system size and zone count increase.
Construction follows the canned rotor principle used throughout the UPS range, eliminating the mechanical shaft seal in favour of bearings lubricated directly by the circulating water. The cast iron housing suits closed-loop heating applications, with a liquid temperature range from -25°C to 110°C covering both standard and higher-temperature boiler circuits.
Internal thermal protection is built into the motor, and the IPX2D enclosure provides contact protection suited to plant room environments. At 180 mm port-to-port, the pump matches the physical footprint of the narrower-bore UPS 25 range, so upgrading from a 25 mm to a 32 mm system does not require re-spacing the connecting pipework.
FEATURES
- Larger 2 inch connections reduce flow restriction and velocity at equivalent volumes
- Three-speed selector provides performance adjustment from 140 W to 230 W
