The launch of Endurance, the toughest boiler pump in its class.
Heating engineers know the damage aggressive condensate can wreak and Aspen Pumps Group’s new boiler pump, Endurance, dramatically reduces the problem. But does the market need another boiler pump? Yes, if it can withstand the condensing boiler environment whilst remaining competitive. Endurance has been designed to do just that, which is why it’s the toughest boiler pump in its class.
When it comes to condensate removal pumps, Aspen Pumps Group knows what it’s doing. It has a global reputation for excellence and innovation and its range of mini pumps is the best there is. Endurance is the result of this experience and engineering design, with features that elevate it to a class of its own.
First, it’s at least 10 times more resistant to acidic condensate than competitive pumps and will easily handle condensate that has a pH factor of > 2.5 (for applications where a neutraliser is not required). A condensing boiler can produce several litres of condensate an hour but, in a cold environment, it forms a vapour which condenses inside the pump housing and on switchgear, causing corrosion; over time this leads to complete failure of the pump.
Endurance also minimises vapour ingress to critical components thanks to its self-closing float and innovative airflow management system. And there’s more: it can withstand short and intermittent temperature excursions up to 85°C, it has the power to lift the condensate to a maximum of 5.5m and a maximum flow rate of 550l/hr. In short, this pump has been designed from the ground up to be robust and reliable.
Additionally, it has the following ease-of-installation and maintenance features:
- Thermally protected maintenance-free motor
- IP24 protection against water splashes
- Inlet cover caps to prevent dirt and debris ingress
- 6m x 10mm Outlet pipe provided
- Supplied complete with power cable and EU moulded plug (EU version)
- Multiple inlet points
- Quick release tank and integrated outlet NRV for easy maintenance
"This pump will deliver a step change in reliability for this application"
Speaking about Endurance, Walter Martin, Engineering Director, Aspen Pumps Group and a key player in the development of this pump, said: “This pump will deliver a step change in reliability for this application”.
For most heating engineers it’s second nature to install a boiler on an exterior wall and use gravity drains for condensate removal but, when the installation is in a basement or flat where there’s no easily accessible exterior wall, then a boiler pump is essential. As useful and hardworking as domestic boilers are, they’re designed to be hidden away and, with Endurance, heating engineers and their customers have the freedom to be flexible about where in the home it’s installed.
