3.1 System types
Fig. 2 Pumped liquids and operating conditions
GRUNDFOS ALPHA2 L is suitable for
• systems with constant or variable flows where it is desirable to
optimise the setting of the pump duty point
• systems with variable flow-pipe temperature.
3.2 Pumped liquids
Clean, thin, non-aggressive and non-explosive liquids, not containing
solid particles, fibres or mineral oil. See fig. 2.
In heating systems, the water should meet the requirements of accepted
standards on water quality in heating systems, e.g. the German standard
VDI 2035.
