Description

Overview

Intelligent, Efficient, In-line Pumping

The Grundfos TPE3 is the smartest and most efficient vertical In-line pump, combining best-in-class pump intelligence and efficiency with built-in features that make it easy to use like smart controls and enhanced mechanical efficiencies that deliver savings in a simplified package. With features that simplify installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance, the TPE3 is a logical choice for almost any commercial heating and cooling application. Adaptive control modes, integrated sensors, hassle-free communication capabilities and an ultra-efficient permanent magnet motor combine to provide simplified, intelligent pumping that can save you up to 85% in energy consumption compared to a typical circulator.

Applications

• > Hydronic Heating and Cooling
• > Single-pipe heating systems
• > Primary / Secondary
• > Heat Recovery Systems
• > Distributed Pumping
• > District Energy Systems
• > Boiler Bypass Pumps
• > Domestic Hot Water Recirculation

Features and benefits

• > Plug-and-pump with features like built-in temperature and pressure sensors, which eliminate the need for additional sensors in most cases.
• > Intelligent control modes simplify the optimization of pump performance using temperature, pressure and flow to deliver unrivaled efficiency automatically.– Differential temperature can control system performance based on ΔT with just one additional temperature sensor
  – Proportional pressure adjusts pressure when the setpoint is known, to match flow to actual demand and decrease energy consumption with integrated sensor.
  – AUTOADAPT controls proportional pressure even when the setpoint is unknown in order to maximize efficiency.
  – FLOWADAPT monitors flow and ensures that the flow rate never exceeds the FLOWLIMIT value, eliminating the need for a pump balancing valve.

• > Wireless communication allows connection of up to four single TPE3 pumps, enabling cascade control for wider range and greater efficiency.
• > Easy BMS integration available with snap-in CIM modules that follow LON, Profibus, Modbus, SMS / GSM / GPRS and BACnet standards and provide over 30 points of data and control using single poll functionality.
• > Advanced permanent magnet motor offers an additional 7–10% decrease in energy cost over NEMA Premium
• > Easy BMS integration available with snap-in CIM modules that follow LON, Profibus, Modbus, SMS / GSM / GPRS and BACnet standards and provide over 30 points of data and control using single poll functionality.
• > Large performance range: From 5 to 80 m3/h Quantity and 3 to 25 m Head
• > Temperature range: Liquid temperature: -25 oC to +120 oC; Ambient temperature: -20 oC to +50 oC
• > Cast iron as standard. Stainless steel for single pumps up to DN65
