Publisher's description

The Grundfos MAGNA3 circulator pumps are designed for circulating liquids in heating systems, air conditioning and cooling systems and domestic hot water systems. However, the pump range can also be used in ground source heat pump systems and solar heating systems. The MAGNA3 pump is a centrifugal pump powered by an electrical motor. It has a high-performance neodymium magnet rotor which increases motor efficiency and an insulation shell to reduce heat loss from the cast iron pump housing with threaded connections. The declaration covers six types of the MAGNA3 pump. They are listed below. The group reference in the technical data and scenarios refers also to these. MAGNA3 50-40 F (Group 1) MAGNA3 50-60 F (Group 2) MAGNA3 50-80 F (Group 3) MAGNA3 50-100 F (Group 4) MAGNA3 50-120 F (Group 5) MAGNA3 32-120 F (Group 6) The MAGNA 3 50-40/60/80/100/120 F are all the same physical products and 100 % identical in terms of design, dimensions and materials as well as supply chain and manufacturing processes, i.e., all cradle to gate processes (A1-A3).The MAGNA 3 32-120 flanged version (F), although smaller, utilizes the same technology and materials as the MAGNA 3 50-40/60/80/100/120 F. Given its smaller size, it is expected to have a lower environmental impact in A1-A3, but the MAGNA 3 50-40/60/80/100/120 F results will cover it being the 'worst-case' scenario EPD of the MAGNA3 32-120 F. The justification is the reduced material usage and the lower energy consumption during operation. The technical specifications table is separate for the 32-120 F, which clearly proves the justification. The B6 factor will also be indicated. The products are also identical in terms of packaging, distribution, reference service life and end-of-life treatment. The only thing that differentiates the products from each other is the software which controls how the pump operates in the system in which it is installed, making them fit for different applications. Hence, all life cycle modules are identical, except use stage module B6, which will change, as the applied scenarios for electricity consumption changes.

Included processes

The Grundfos MAGNA3 circulation pumps are designed for circulating liquids in heating systems, air conditioning and cooling systems and domestic hot water systems. However, the pump series can also be used in geothermal heat pump systems and solar systems. Technical data: The performance data of the product according to the harmonised norms, based on the harmonisation provisions above apply. The relevant technical specifications according to the PCR Part B are given in the table below. Characteristics that are the same for all three product groups are only given once. Others are given individually for all three groups. Declared unit: The declared unit is 1 piece (pcs.) of MAGNA3 Stainless Steel pump.

Applicability

For the application and use the respective national provisions apply. The pump is designed for circulating liquids in the following systems: · heating systems · domestic hot-water systems · air-conditioning and cooling systems · ground-source heat-pump systems · solar-heating systems The pump is suitable for thin, clean, non-aggressive and non-explosive liquids, not containing solid particles or fibres that may attack the pump mechanically or chemically. In heating systems, the water must meet the requirements of accepted standards on water quality. The pumps are also suitable for domestic hot-water systems.
