Grundfos introduce Blueflux – the next
generation of motors
Grundfos produces 16 million pump units
annually, and continues to invest heavily in high
efficiency motors. This is important, as energy
generally accounts for 85% of a pump’s overall
life cycle costs and, without the right motor, even
the best pump will not perform optimally. The
next generation of Grundfos motors is called
Blueflux. This technology represents the best
from Grundfos within energy efficient motors and
variable frequency drives.
