In this video, you will gain an understanding of the CR pump range’s versatility in handling diverse and demanding industrial applications, as well as its capability of handling a wide range of liquids. Let’s get started.

The CR pump range is integral to water utilities, specifically in raw water treatment, distribution from waterworks, and boosting in networks. It ensures clean water distribution efficiently and reliably. Within waterworks, CR pumps are commonly used in multiple pump systems like Grundfos Hydro Boosters. These boosters maintain constant pressure in the distribution network, ensuring optimal water pressure at user taps and significant power savings by adapting to varying water demands.

CR pumps are also used for boosting within the water network to compensate for pressure drops caused by friction in pipes. This involves installing pumps in small, prefabricated pits along the distribution line.

In commercial buildings, CR pumps play a critical role in water boosting and fire protection. Tall buildings and those with high water consumption during peak hours require boosters to maintain sufficient pressure. These buildings often use multiple boosters, each serving different pressure zones. Industries like food and beverage also benefit from agile water supply systems to meet peak demands. CR pumps are also essential in firefighting systems, serving as jockey pumps to maintain constant pressure in sprinkler systems, ensuring they are always ready for immediate use. They can also be used in high pressure mist sprinkling systems.

Professional irrigation applications, such as golf courses, industrial greenhouses, and sports stadiums, rely heavily on CR pumps. Precise irrigation requires a well-defined, constant pressure to avoid over or under-watering. CR booster systems provide the necessary precision, ensuring even water distribution across lawns and fields. In famous football arenas worldwide, CR pumps ensure efficient irrigation and are crucial in greenhouses for humidity control and precise fertilizer dosing. Water treatment represents a major application for CR pumps, particularly in high-pressure scenarios like reverse osmosis and filtration. These pumps, often made from stainless steel, are essential for producing drinkable water from brackish sources and water reuse processes.

As industries increasingly seek to recycle water to save resources, the demand for CR pumps in water treatment is expected to grow. CR pumps are essential in temperature control applications, serving various cooling and heating needs. Industries use CR pumps to remove heat from processes, cool equipment, and maintain precise temperatures in sensitive applications like pharmaceutical manufacturing. CR pumps are also vital in cooling systems for wind turbines, where robust and compact solutions are required. In addition to cooling, CR pumps are used in steam production for generating pure water and in industrial boilers for hot water production. These applications are critical in industries and offshore installations that consume large amounts of steam daily.

CR pumps are also vital in industrial washing and cleaning applications. In the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, cleaning is crucial. Some of the most popular systems for CR pumps include wash-down systems and automated Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) systems. These ensure thorough internal cleaning of pipes and equipment. CR pumps are also widely used in non-food industries for cleaning metal parts, car washing systems, and food container washing, contributing to water reuse and resource optimisation.

In various industrial processes, CR pumps are used extensively and are often sold directly to end-user industries for specialised applications. These include liquid transfer in dairies, breweries, and pharmaceutical industries, as well as the regeneration of process liquids. CR pumps cater to a wide range of needs, requiring customised configurations to meet specific industrial requirements. Beyond these applications, CR pumps are also used in a wide variety of other industries. They are used in mining for dust suppression and tool cooling, in airports for jet fuel pumping and de-icing, and on ski slopes for snow production, as well as supporting marine applications, handling fuel, cooling, and firefighting. Because of the ongoing changes in the energy industry, CR pumps are now ready to handle new fuels like methanol and green hydrogen, supporting green hydrogen production processes.

As you can see, the CR pump range is incredibly versatile in industrial settings, handling a wide range of liquids and applications.  It’s used everywhere from mines underground to offshore platforms, managing not just water but also tricky substances like flammable, corrosive, toxic, abrasive, viscous, and odorous fluids. From keeping water flowing in cities to cooling machinery, the CR pump range proves its reliability and flexibility. Its strong design ensures it works well in tough conditions, making it essential across different industries worldwide.
