10.1 Operation modes and parameters

Once SCALA1 is installed as a twin booster system, it can run in
two different operation modes.
Duty/Standby
In Duty/Standby operation mode, only one pump will run at a time in
the twin system. This means that the maximum performance of the
system will be the same as the maximum performance of a single
SCALA1 unit. In case one pump fails to start, the other one will run.
The pumps will switch priority at the start based on the alternation
settings.
Duty/Assist
Running in Duty/Assist operation mode brings more flow on the
outlet side, as both pumps can run at the same time. A pump with
an assigned priority will start first and, in case it cannot deliver the
necessary flow, the second pump will start. In case one pump fails
to start, the system will continue running with one pump. The
pumps will switch priority at the start based on the alternation
settings.
Alternation can be set based on runtime or number of starts. This is
done through the Grundfos GO Remote application, either in the
initial setup or through the Settings tab on the Dashboard screen.
"No alternation" is only available for selection when
operating in Duty/Assist.
