Domestic pumps take on a new dimension: GRUNDFOS presents the ALPHA3 with communication module

In November 2015. GRUNDFOS concern launched a new model of household circulation pumps ALPHA3. Thanks to the wireless communication module ALPHA Reader with the possibility of transferring data to mobile devices, the equipment ensures quick and easy hydraulic balancing of heating systems. The combination of innovative features and rugged design ensures efficient and reliable operation of even the most demanding heating systems.

“The ALPHA3 pump from GRUNDFOS brings a new way of thinking about the balancing of heating systems: the equipment remotely transmits data about the operating parameters to the mobile app Grundfos GO Balance, which then automatically calculates the necessary parameter values for each radiator. This is a completely innovative approach to the mandatory process of balancing heating systems, allowing every installer and even homeowner to professionally organize it. A correctly balanced heating system helps to save from 7 to 20% on your heating bill,” comments Ekaterina Semyonova, Engineer, Household Equipment Department, GRUNDFOS, America.

The new pump model differs from its predecessors by the presence of communication module ALPHA Reader. It is a readout device and is available as an accessory to the new ALPHA3 pump. The data from the equipment is transmitted via an optical communication channel to the ALPHA Reader for later sending to your phone or tablet. With the Grundfos GO Balance app, the installer hydraulically balances a radiator system in four steps. The entire process takes just one hour.

“Our solution assumes that the complex data collection and calculation process is done automatically in the GO Balance app,” comments Michael Skjoldemose, product manager at GRUNDFOS. – This is a huge advantage compared to solutions on the market: installers can save a lot of time, because the entire process is performed on site and the necessary data and calculations are now literally at their fingertips. And costly flow meters, which are almost always used in balancing heating systems, are becoming a thing of the past.

The new GRUNDFOS product has the advantages, typical for the whole range of ALPHA pumps: pump bearings and shaft are made of ceramic, improved starting characteristics, built-in dry running protection with automatic restart, summer mode and AUTOADAPT function. This considerably increases the service life of the equipment.

The energy efficiency index of the new ALPHA3 is 0.15, which makes it the most energy-efficient circulator in its class1. ALPHA3 analyzes the operation mode and automatically adjusts the output power, reducing it to 3W at low consumption, which provides up to 87% power savings compared to peers.

Despite the technical equipment and design features, the ALPHA3 pump is easy to operate. Updated ALPHA plug, AUTOADAPT auto-setting function and intuitive user interface make it easy to install and start the pump in any heating system.
