Grundfos SCALA1 – compact pressure boosting pump

The Grundfos SCALA1 is a self-priming multistage pump with integrated pressure boosting system. It combines the main components of a booster system in a compact housing and is suitable for water supply in homes, gardens and small commercial premises.

Self-priming Works reliably when suctioning from wells and tanks.
Bluetooth control Connection to the Grundfos GO Remote app.
Compact design Integrated booster for easier installation and operation.

Main advantages of SCALA1

  • Integrated pressure boosting pump.
  • Self-priming design for stable operation.
  • Ability to communicate via Bluetooth.
  • Setup and diagnostics via Grundfos GO Remote.
  • Possibility of external input.
  • Possibility to build a SCALA1 Twin double booster system.
  • Noise level below 55 dB(A).
  • Built-in thermal switch and motor protection.

Easy installation

SCALA1 is designed for quick installation. The main steps are connecting the pipes, filling the pump with water and connecting to the mains. Once connected, the pump starts automatically when water is needed.

Self-priming operation

The self-priming function allows the pump to lift water from a level below the inlet and handle a mixture of air and water until it reaches normal pumping mode. The maximum recommended suction height is up to 8 m with a properly installed system.

Protections

  • Dry-running protection: the pump switches off automatically in the absence of water.
  • Protection against frequent switching on and off: limits cyclic operation in the event of small leaks or poorly closed taps.
  • Maximum run time protection: switches off the pump in the event of prolonged continuous operation. The period can be set via Grundfos GO Remote.
  • Thermal protection: the built-in thermal switch protects the motor from overload.

Applications

  • Pressure increase from the city water supply network.
  • Water supply from a roof, above-ground or underground tank.
  • Water supply from shallow wells up to 8 m.
  • Garden irrigation.
  • Transferring water between tanks.
  • Water supply to kitchens, bathrooms and small residential installations.

Suitable water

SCALA1 is designed for clean, thin, non-aggressive and non-explosive water without solid particles and fibers. Suitable examples are drinking water and rainwater.

For water from a well or rain tank, it is recommended to install a filter on the suction side to limit the ingress of sand, gravel and other contaminants.

Important during installation

The pump must be installed on a stable horizontal base, leaving a free space of approximately 0.5 m on three sides for proper ventilation and servicing. The piping system must be properly dimensioned, without air pockets and without the pump bearing the weight of the piping.

Component materials

SCALA1 is built from high-quality materials that ensure a long service life and corrosion resistance. The main structure is made of composite material that combines lightness with high strength.

Component Material
Combined pump housing and stator Composite
PCB (electronic circuit board) cover Composite
Control box cover Composite
Motor flange Composite
Shaft seal Carbon / Ceramic
Impeller stack (chamber stack) Composite
Air handling unit Composite
Connecting part for hydraulics Composite
Outlet check valve Composite
Hydraulic cover Composite
Drain plug Composite
Fittings, thread R 1" / NPT 1" Composite

Advantages of composite construction

  • Corrosion resistance: Composite materials do not rust and are resistant to aggressive environments.
  • Lightweight construction: Lower weight makes transportation and installation easier.
  • Quiet operation: The composite reduces vibration and noise during operation.
  • Long service life: High-quality materials ensure reliable operation for years.
All materials that come into contact with water are approved for drinking water and meet the relevant safety standards.

Approvals and certificates

Grundfos SCALA1 has the necessary approvals and certificates for drinking water safety and quality, ensuring that the pump can be safely used for domestic and commercial water supply.

Safety approvals

  • CE marking: The pump meets the requirements of European directives for safety, health and environmental protection.
  • Compliance with European standards: The product has been tested and certified according to applicable electrical and mechanical safety standards.

Drinking water approvals

  • ACS (Attestation de Conformité Sanitaire): French approval for contact with drinking water. Guarantees that the materials do not release harmful substances into the water.
  • Other national approvals: Depending on the market, SCALA1 may have additional drinking water approvals according to local regulations.

Why are approvals important?

  • Health and safety: Approvals ensure that the pump does not contaminate drinking water with harmful substances.
  • Regulatory compliance: The use of approved products is mandatory in many countries for installations involving drinking water.
  • Trust and quality: Certified products have passed rigorous testing and meet high quality standards.
Before installation, check whether the specific product number has the necessary approvals for your country or region. If additional certifications are required, contact Grundfos or your distributor.

Comparison of SCALA1 models

Choose the model according to the required flow rate, maximum pressure and number of consumption points in the water supply system.

Characteristics SCALE1 3-25 SCALE1 3-35 SCALA1 3-45 SCALE1 5-25 SCALA1 5-55
Nominal flow rate 3.00 m³/h 3.72 m³/h 3.59 m³/h 4.80 m³/h 5.33 m³/h

Weight 11 kg 12 kg 12 kg 12 kg 14 kg

Indicative choice

  • SCALA1 3-25: for smaller installations and lower required height.
  • SCALA1 3-35: for homes with moderate consumption and need for higher pressure.
  • SCALA1 3-45: for greater height or more consumption points.
  • SCALA1 5-25: for higher flow rate at moderate head.
  • SCALA1 5-55: for the highest flow and head in the SCALA1 range.
The actual choice must be made according to the operating point, the height of the building, the length and diameter of the pipes, the inlet pressure and the simultaneous operation of the consumers.
