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. |

can be configured to cope with a multitude of difficult
media. |
