Grundfos CR-H Horizontal Multistage End Suction Pumps for Pressure Boosting, Water Treatment, Industrial Process, and High-Pressure Water Systems
Grundfos CR-H Horizontal Multistage End Suction Pumps combine the proven multistage hydraulic design of the Grundfos CR platform with a horizontal end-suction configuration. Designed for applications requiring reliable pressure generation and flexible installation, CR-H pumps are well suited for pressure boosting, water treatment, industrial process water, filtration, washing, cooling, and general high-pressure water systems.
The horizontal configuration is a key advantage of the CR-H range. While traditional CR pumps use a vertical in-line arrangement, CR-H pumps position the multistage pump horizontally with an end-suction inlet. This makes the range particularly useful for installations with limited vertical clearance, packaged equipment, process skids, and systems where horizontal piping arrangements are preferred.
Multiple impeller stages allow Grundfos CR-H pumps to generate higher discharge pressures than many conventional single-stage end-suction pumps. Combined with the modular design of the CR platform, this provides a versatile pumping solution for systems requiring consistent flow and higher head while maintaining a compact equipment layout.
The broader Grundfos CR-H family also includes CRN-H, CRE-H, and CRNE-H configurations. These variants provide additional options for stainless steel wetted construction and integrated variable-speed control, allowing the horizontal CR platform to be adapted to corrosion-sensitive liquids, variable-demand systems, and specialized industrial applications.
