Construction
Grundfos TP, TPE pumps are single-stage,
close-coupled pumps with in-line suction and dis-
charge ports flanges of identical diameter.
The pumps are equipped with a fan-cooled
asynchronous motor. Motor and pump shafts are
connected via a rigid two-part coupling.
The pumps are equipped with an unbalanced
mechanical shaft seal.
The pumps are of the top-pull-out design, i.e. the
power head (motor, pump head and impeller) can be
removed for maintenance or service while the pump
housing remains in the pipework.
As radial and axial forces are absorbed by the fixed
bearing in the motor drive-end, the pump requires no
bearing.
Pumps with bronze pump housing are suitable for
circulation of domestic hot water.
