6.2 Applications

The pump is designed for the circulation of water in heating
systems, domestic hot-water systems as well as air-conditioning
and cold-water systems.
Cold-water systems are defined as systems where the ambient
temperature is higher than the temperature of the pumped liquid.
The pump is the best choice for the following systems:
• underfloor heating systems
• one-pipe systems
• two-pipe systems.
The pump is suitable for the following:
• Systems with constant or variable flow rates where you want
to optimise the setting of the pump duty point.
• Systems with variable flow-pipe temperature.
