Armstrong Fluid Technology’s Compass range of circulators is designed for light-commercial and domestic applications. The company’s energy-saving Design Envelope technology, previously offered for much larger pumps, has been applied to the Compass range, which has ratings from 5 to 45 W.

These pumps have an EEI (energy efficiency index) of less than 0.23 and combine energy-efficient motor technology with intelligent variable-speed operation based on sensorless demand-based control.

The Compass auto algorithm intelligently adapts to system demand to achieve the right setup. Eight different modes of operation covering the performance of a wide range of fixed-speed circulators.

Pumps in the range can produce heads up to 6 m and 4.3 m3/h of flow.
