Check the pump setting by pressing the button once (one constant 

pessure). The LEDs will briefly (2 sec.) show the pump setting before 

changing back to showing the power consumption. 

See fig. 3 - Pump setting view.

If the pump setting does not give the desired distribution of heat in

the rooms of the house, change the pump setting. 

See fig. 4 - Recommended pump settings.

Before starting the setting, make clear what the display should 
show for the new setting (

see fig. 3

).

To change the pump setting, choose the setting you want (see fig

3), press the button down for more than 2 seconds (less than 10)

and the pump switches to setting selection, the LEDs start flashing 

and display the current setting. Then press the button until the LEDs 

shows the desired setting. The LEDs flash and when they stop the 

new setting is saved. The LEDs return to show power cunstumption. 

Please note

 that if the LEDs do not flash after 2 seconds, possibly 

the pump setting is locked. To unlock, press the button down for 

more than 10 seconds. LEDs will flash and the pump is unlocked. 

To lock the pump, repeat the procedure.

For more information, se enclosed Grundfos instructions.

Alarm status

In case the 1st LED is red the pump has detected one or more alarms.

See fig. 5 - Alarm status

. When there is no active alarm anymore

the user interface switches back to operation mode shortly and then
showing power consumption.

UPM3 FLEX AS

UPM3 FLEX AS is a flexible solution for boiler 

systems now and in the future. It is designed to 

work both with and without PWM signal, allow-

ing you to upgrade your systems without having 

to change the circulators.

Description

 

»

Integrated OEM high efficient circulator 

 

»

For flexible use in appliances without PWM 

speed control with 4 speeds 

 

»

or in applications with externally controlled 

signal with standard PWM profile A for 4 MAX 

curves 

Exceeding benchmark level of the Ecodesign 

requirements in 2015, EEI ≤ 0.20 EN16297/3

UPM3 AUTO

UPM3 AUTO is for all applications in which an 

internally controlled pump is needed. It is designed 

to be used in appliances or cabinets with increased 

ambient temperatures and limited space options; 

either in standalone applications or in kit systems 

without PWM controller.

Description
