UPA 15-160

Grundfos UPA 15-160 is a domestic booster designed for pressure boosting of drinking water supplied from an external source in residential homes. The UPA booster pumps increase the pressure of domestic water to make the required pressure available at showers, taps and other tapping points.

This pump has an inlet and outlet port of 1 inch. The pressure rating of the pump corresponds with PN 10 and a port-to-port length of 203 mm.The UPA 15-160 provides the comfort of constant water pressure with automatic start and stop. This is controlled by the external flow switch ensuring optimal start/stop of the booster pump according to demand. The flow switch is delivered with the pump. The design is robust and built upon corrosion-free materials and cataphoresis-coated cast iron pump housing to ensure a long lifetime. The pump is a canned rotor pump type where pump and motor form an integral unit without shaft seal. This pump must always be installed with horizontal motor shaft. This high efficiency booster has a 4-pole, synchronous, permanent-magnet motor with frequency converter. The bearings are lubricated by the pumped liquid. These constructional features ensure maintenance-free operation.
