9. Technical data
9.1 Ambient temperature
Maximum +55 °C (~ +131 °F).
9.2 Liquid temperature
–25 °C (~ –13 °F) up to +140 °C (~ +288 °F).
The maximum liquid temperature depends on the
mechanical shaft seal type and the pump type.
Depending on the cast-iron version and the pump
application, the maximum liquid temperature may be
limited by local regulations and laws.
The maximum liquid temperature is marked on the
pump nameplate.
If the pump is operating with liquids at
high temperatures, the life of the shaft
seal may be reduced. It may be
Note
necessary to replace the shaft seal
more often.
9.3 Operating pressure/test pressure
The pressure test has been made with water
containing anti-corrosive additives at a temperature
of +20 °C (~ +68 °F).

9.4 Inlet pressure
To ensure optimum and quiet pump operation, the
inlet pressure (system pressure) must be adjusted
correctly. See table on page 258.
For the calculation of specific inlet pressures,
contact the local Grundfos company or see the data
booklet for TP(D)/TPE(D), if at hand.
9.5 Enclosure class
Closed drain hole in motor: IP 55.
Open drain hole in motor: IP 44.
