- Mixed heating systems.
- Air conditioning systems.
- Replacement of built-in and stand-alone circulation pumps.
Suitable liquids
- Clean, thin, non-aggressive and non-explosive liquids.
- Water in heating systems meeting accepted quality standards.
- Mixtures of water with antifreeze, e.g. glycol or ethanol, with a kinematic viscosity below 15 cSt.
Installation guidelines
- The pump is installed with a horizontal motor shaft with a deviation of up to 5°.
- The arrows on the housing indicate the direction of flow.
- When installing in the pipeline, use the seals supplied.
- Before starting, the system must be filled with liquid.
- The electrical connection is made via an installer plug.
- No external motor protection is required.
- The pump is intended for indoor installation only.
Select model ALPHA1 GO
Both models have a maximum head of 8 m and a port length of 180 mm. The main difference is in the nominal diameter and the threaded connection.
| Model | Nominal diameter | Maximum pressure | Port length | Joining | Product number |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 25-80 | DN 25 | 8 m | 180mm | G 1 1/2 | 93074176 |
| 32-80 | DN 32 | 8 m | 180mm | G2 | 93074174 |
25-80 (Model: 93074176)
Circulation pump with submerged rotor DN 25, maximum head 8 m and port length 180 mm. The model has a G 1 1/2 connection and is suitable for radiator, underfloor and mixed heating systems.
The ALPHA1 GO 25-80 offers three control modes with three performance settings each and is suitable for replacing an existing pump in DN 25 pipelines.
32-80 (Model: 93074174)
Circulation pump with submerged rotor DN 32, maximum head 8 m and port length 180 mm. The model has a G 2 connection and is designed for heating systems with larger pipe diameters.
ALPHA1 GO 32-80 provides quiet and energy-efficient circulation with proportional pressure, constant pressure and constant characteristic.
Control modes
Proportional pressure
With proportional pressure, the pump automatically adjusts its performance to the heat demand. The pressure decreases at lower flow rates and increases at higher flow rates.
This mode is suitable for radiator systems with thermostatic radiator valves that change the flow rate according to the room temperature.
- Setting I: Minimum curve.
- Setting II: Average curve.
- Setting III: Maximum curve.
Constant pressure
At constant pressure, the pump maintains a stable pressure difference regardless of heat demand and the number of open zones.
This mode is particularly suitable for underfloor heating and systems with a common collector supplying several heating zones.
- Setting I: Low constant pressure.
- Setting II: Medium constant pressure.
- Setting III: High constant pressure.
Permanent characteristic
With a constant characteristic, the pump operates at a constant speed or power, regardless of the actual flow rate in the system.
This mode is suitable for systems with constant characteristics and radiators that require a constant flow rate.
- Setting I: Minimum speed.
- Setting II: Medium speed.
- Setting III: Maximum speed.
Advanced mode
Advanced mode allows the pump to replicate the characteristics of an existing UPS pump. This makes it easier to replace when upgrading the heating system.
Dry-running protection
The dry-running protection function protects the pump in the event of a lack of water. If dry-running continues, the pump stops and a warning code is shown on the display. After the cause has been eliminated, the pump can be restarted by pressing the button.
