Armstrong ASTRO 2 Wet Rotor Pumps

The Armstrong ASTRO series circulators has been improved with the NEW ASTRO 2 series.  Please note that the new series pumps do not retro fit with the old series and have different dimensions.

You can view the ASTRO 2 pdf file here.




Armstrong Astro 2 3-speed circulators provide unmatched performance over a wide range of head and flow requirements. The 3-speed design allows users to match the requirements of an installation exactly, and also helps with:
Reduced Inventory – the complete range of 10 Astro 2 3-speed circulators replaces 93 models of competitors’ pumps
Adaptability – After a circulator is installed you might need to change the performance to accommodate:
Over/under estimated system resistance in the original design.
Increased number of zones due to a building addition.
Addition of system elements such as an indirect hot water tank or spa.
With Astro 2 3-speed units installed you can easily change the operating speed to handle these changed performance requirements.
Other features of the Armstrong ASTRO 2 circulation pumps:
Compliance with lead-free regulations
Lead-free bronze and stainless steel models of Astro 2 certified <0.25 weighted average percent lead and complies with California Health and Safety Code Section 116875 (commonly known as AB1953).
International code compliance
Astro 2 units are ETL listed for the US and Canada and conform to UL std. 778 and Canadian electrical safety standards CSA std C22.2 No 108-01.
3-speeds
Reduce your inventory with a variety of performance curves. Ten pumps replace 93 circulators. Correct design issues in the field by adjusting the circulator output.

The Armstorng ASTRO Express Hot water Delivery System provides instant hot water at the tap where the Express valve is located. The system includes an Astro 220 SSU w/timer & 6 ft. Line cord, union hardware kit, Astro Express LF Valve. 




Featured pumps for in home recirculation.  Pumps with the TA suffix come with the timer and Aquastat.  Great for hot water recirculation.
