GRUNDFOSCRE RANGE CUSTOMISED PUMP SOLUTIONS Optimised for steam boiler feed

Get upgraded. Twice. A double upgrade for your boiler feed pumps Your first upgrade: The new CRE with three-phase motors You already know the electronically controlled CRE pump range and how it combines reliability and efficiency thanks to the integrated frequency converter in its MGE motor. You may also already know that the new generation of CRE pumps with three-phase, dual-voltage MGE motors from Grundfos has hit the market. You have heard how they are even more efficient even more robust have a very wide power supply range incorporate a duty/standby function and seriously improve stock...

Now go for complete control. Sophisticated code optimises your pumps After decades of development work, the mechanics of your Grundfos pumps and motors are virtually as good as they can get. So our design team went on to harness the power of computers. Always adapting, always efficient Inside the customised CRE pumps, digital wonders work tirelessly to analyse input and make small adjustments all the time, helping you create a system that works better. It’s that simple on the outside. But rather complex on the inside. See below for more – and turn to “The Science Bits” for details. We make...

Optimising boiler feed pumps with software We stretch the pump curves for you By getting software tailor-made for you, you can make your pumps operate outside their set pump curves. You get efficiency so high it almost goes against the laws of nature. Basically, the rules don’t apply to you anymore. To see how we can stretch pump curves to suit you, turn to “The Science Bits” on p. 8-9. So how do we get the pump to choose the right point? With computer power. By fiddling with the electronics, our experts persuade the pump to decrease its rpm as the flow demand increases. In effect, the pump...

Upgrade your customers Eff1 motors save energy, generate less heat, may prompt government subsidies and can promote a greener image Stable water levels mean stable operation No downtime thanks to cutting-edge supervision and protection Due to the low net positive suction head (NPSH) we have very efficient cavitation preventing, which is ideal in all situations where you deal with high temperatures and difficult inlet conditions. Low-NPSH pumps also al low for more compact systems by reducing excess pres sure itself, thereby eliminating the need for additional tanks. Superior reliabiity...

Your upgrades explained The “Science Bit” is exactly what it says: It is where those with a keen interest in technical matters can check out how your dedicated system upgrade was created. Creative software. Made for you. The latest advances in software allow us to create completely customised solutions with very compact object code. Basically, that means our designers are free to think creatively about how your systems can be improved. And because it’s all done with software, they can target your challenges very, very specifically, making the hardware do exactly what is best for you....

We keep your water levels level. At all times In any boiler tank application, a key objective is to maintain a constant water level in the tank, creating a stable surface to ensure stable steam generation. Using a motorised feed valve will enable you to maintain constant feeding. Such equipment needs to be very accurate. Regulation must be carried out within a seriously narrow window; you need fast, yet smooth responses to changes in operating conditions. That presents special challenges. And is often costly. Sensors and software meet specific demands Grundfos has met those challenges with...
