Applications
GRUNDFOS ALPHA2 is designed for circulating liquids
in heating systems. Pumps with stainless-steel pump
housing can also be used in domestic hot-water
systems.
GRUNDFOS ALPHA2 is suitable for
• systems with constant or variable flows where it is
desirable to optimise the pump duty point.
Examples of systems
Pumped liquids
Clean, thin, non-aggressive and non-explosive liquids,
not containing solid particles, fibres or mineral oil.
Fig. 2 One-pipe heating system
The pump must not be used for the transfer of
flammable liquids such as diesel oil, petrol and similar
liquids.

Curve conditions
The guidelines below apply to the performance curves
on the next pages:
• Test liquid: airless water.
• The curves apply to a density of ρ = 983.2 kg/m3
and a liquid temperature of +60 °C.
• All curves show average values and should not be
used as guarantee curves. If a specific minimum
performance is required, individual measurements
must be made.
• The curves for the speeds I, II and III are marked.
• The curves apply to a kinematic viscosity of
υ = 0.474 mm2/s (0.474 cSt).
• The conversion between head H [m] and pressure
p [kPa] has been made for water with a density of
ρ = 1000 kg/m3. For liquids with other densities, e.g.
hot water, the discharge pressure is proportional to
the density.
