http://www.pumpproducts.com - Pump Products reviews the Grundfos UPS15-58FC 3-Speed Circulator Pump.
Grundfos UPS15-58FC Circulator Pumps move liquids through hydronic heating systems efficiently, quietly and with minimal maintenance. They can be adjusted to run at three-speeds and can be used in a wide range of applications.
The UPS15-58FC's three-speed design makes it possible to regulate the pump's output to precisely match the requirements of the application. And once installed, it can be adjusted to fix discrepancies in estimated system resistance and to accommodate an increased number of zones. The pump's internal three-speed motor reduces noise and power consumption.
Rated at 1/25th hp and 115 volts, with a flow range of zero to 18 gallons per minute and a head range of zero to 20 feet, Grundfos UPS15-58FC circulators can handle a wide range of common pump applications including one and two-pipe heating systems, main pumps, zone pumps, under-floor heating systems, geothermal heating systems and heat recovery systems.
Efficient design is a Grundfos hallmark and is evident in the UPS15-58FC's canned-rotor configuration. Pump and motor form an integral unit eliminating the need for a shaft seal — two gaskets are used instead — and lubrication — bearings are lubricated by the pumped liquid.
Another great feature of the UPS15-58FC is it's patented electronic starting unit, which gives it the greatest starting torque of any wet rotor circulator.
An internal check valve prevents backflow from entering the unit and eliminates the need for discrete check valve installation, minimizing installation and maintenance costs and maximizing flexibility.
Standard flange connections and an easy electrical connection with push-to-insert wire clips make installation a breeze.
The UPS15-58FC can replace more than a dozen competing models, which makes it one of the most versatile pumps on the market today. It comes with a 3-year warranty.
