Grundfos 00506173 Cartridge Kit
As a veteran tech, you know the cost of pulling a complete circulator just because the internal rotor has seized or the bearings are shot. The Grundfos 00506173 Cartridge Kit is the professional solution for restoring 115V UP15-42 and UPS15-42F series pumps to O.E.M. efficiency without the need for piping re-work. This genuine Grundfos replacement part is a complete "wet end" assembly, featuring the stainless steel rotor and ceramic bearing system designed for continuous-duty hydronic heating and radiant loops. When you are dealing with scale buildup or a dry-run failure on a Grundfos UP15-42SF or BU series, this circulator pump cartridge allows for a 15-minute bench swap. By replacing only the internal rotating assembly, you maintain the integrity of the existing cast iron or stainless steel pump housing while ensuring the 115 volt motor operates at its intended head pressure and flow rate. This is the exact heating system pump repair kit required for legacy 15-42 variants where high-torque startup and whisper-quiet operation are non-negotiable.
Key Benefits for the Contractor:- Direct Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the UPS15-42F, UP15-42B, and UP15-42SU/SF 115V models.
- Hydronic Efficiency: Restores factory-spec flow and head pressure, eliminating the noise and cavitation caused by worn bearings.
- Reduced Downtime: Simple four-bolt replacement process requires no wiring modifications or invasive plumbing changes.
- Durable Construction: Features a stainless steel cladding and ceramic shaft for superior resistance to magnetite and system debris.
Will this cartridge fit the 230V version of the 15-42 pump?
No. This kit is strictly for 115V 60Hz models. Installing this rotor in a high-voltage motor will lead to immediate electrical failure and stator damage.
Do I need to replace the pump housing gaskets when installing this kit?
Yes. While the cartridge is the main component, ensuring a clean mating surface and a fresh O-ring (usually included or sold separately) is vital to prevent high-pressure leaks once the system is pressurized.
Can this kit be used in open-loop potable water systems?
This cartridge is compatible with the stainless steel (SF) and bronze (B) pump bodies used in domestic hot water applications, provided the original pump model matches the 00506173 specification.
