Product Overview
When a heating or hot water system is specified with wider bore pipework to handle greater volume, a pump with a matching connection size is required to avoid unnecessary flow restriction. The Grundfos UPS 32-80N is designed for those systems, with a 2 inch connection that reduces flow resistance at equivalent volumes.
At full speed the pump delivers approx. 182 L/Min with a maximum head up to 8 m of maximum head, with three selectable settings stepping power from 140 W up to 230 W and current reaching 1.01 A on a 1 x 240 V supply. The wider 2 inch connection reduces flow restriction compared to the 1 1/2 inch models at equivalent volumes, which matters as zone count and pipe run length increase.
The canned rotor construction shared across the UPS N range removes the mechanical shaft seal, with bearings lubricated by the circulating water. Stainless steel wetted parts and a composite impeller keep the pump suitable for potable hot water while tolerating liquid temperatures from -25°C up to 110°C.
An IPX2D enclosure provides contact protection, and internal thermal protection is built into the motor winding. The 180 mm port-to-port body matches the dimensional footprint of the smaller UPS 25 series, so specification decisions largely come down to bore size and head requirement.
