Liquids
More than just cold water

Choice of materials is crucial
A range of alternative materials is available to adapt the Grundfos CR to handle the wide variety of liquids encountered today - from drinking water to aggressive industrial liquids.

For non-corrosive liquids
The CR is made of stainless steel AISI 304 and top-quality cast iron. The CRI is an all stainless-steel pump. The CR and CRI are primarily intended for pumping water and other non-corrosive liquids.

For aggressive liquids
High-grade AISI 316 stainless steel is used in the CRN to withstand aggressive industrial liquids.

For saline liquids
The CRT is made of titanium and is therefore totally corrosion-free in saline liquids - unlike any other pump of its kind. Only the CRT can offer such high levels of reliability under such uncompromising conditions.

For custom-built CR
The standard CR range is supplemented by a custom-built program which is anything but standard. An entire development team is dedicated to custom-building CRs to cover applications which are out of the ordinary. Please contact your local Grundfos sales office for more information about custom-built CRs.


 
Aggressive or corrosive liquids Seawater, hypochlorites, hydrochloric acid, ferric chloride, nitric acid, chromic acid, phosphoric acid
Abrasive liquids Metasilicate-containing cleaning agents, abrasive alkaline cleaners, phosphates
Toxic or explosive liquids Trichlorethylene, toluene, petroleum, ethyl alcohol, methyl alcohol
High-viscosity liquids Glycols, carboxylates (for cooling), lubricating oils, rapeseed oil
Hardening liquids Water-based paint, glue, vegetable oils
Crystallizing liquids Glycol additives, naphthalene, sugar products (e.g.dextran), salts
High pressures Water treatment, cleaning/washing
Extreme temperatures Petrochemicals, oils, boiler feed, secondary coolants
 


 

 

By finding the right combination of motor size, shaft seal, pump materials and bearing materials, a CR can be configured to cope with a multitude of difficult media.
