grundfos ALPHA1

The EEI of ALPHA1

meets and exceeds the
requirements of the
EuP 2015 legislation.

ALPHA1
Affordable
energy
efficiency
The ALPHA1 is a cost-efficient yet high-performing
circulator. The reliable pump complies with the
strict EuP requirements and is the ideal choice in
applications where the well-known UPS has been used
to fulfil basic circulator needs.

Key features
Everything under control Constant pressure mode
• 7 -segment power display provides an • T
 he pump maintains constant pressure
easy overview of all that is going on in regardless of the flow
the pump
• T
 he preferred operation mode for under
floor heating and 2 string systems with
low flow variation
Proportional pressure mode
• Constant pressure curves (low and high)
• If the proportional pressure mode is
selected, the differential pressure varies
proportionally with the flow, i.e. higher
Easy operation
