Product Overview
Where cafe strips and small assemblies where a dishwasher cycle drops the street pressure are served from a single booster, the Hydro MPC-E 3 CRIE 5-2 holds pressure steady as three CRIE 5-2 pumps respond to changing flow. Part number 93637518 provides the complete tested package in a single order line.
The system supports flow rates up to 493 L/min. It can develop up to 19 metres of head for dependable pressure boosting. A Grundfos GENIECON PANEL on the common base frame provides the system control; the GENIECON UNIT within it holds the exact hydraulic and electrical data of the pumps, so staging and changeover decisions are based on the pumps' actual curves.
Factory assembled on a common base, the set combines stainless steel pipework, two 50 mm manifold connections, isolation and non-return valves, pressure sensors and a gauge, plus an 8L diaphragm tank. It connects to a 1 x 230 V supply at 50 Hz with a rated current of 6.7 A. Motors are protected to IP54, while maximum system pressure is 16 bar. Liquid-temperature suitability is 5°C to 60°C.
Typical duty sits with irrigation schemes, high-rise developments and industry. It is designed for clean-water pressure boosting where demand varies through the day.
Features
- Both constant-pressure and proportional-pressure modes are available, so plant rooms can tune response to pipework.
- Each main pump is rated 0.55 kW (P2), so per-pump draw scales down as speed follows demand.
- Frequency converters on the motors pair with permanent magnet motors for efficient part-load operation.
- Energy draw matches the actual job because speed follows demand, not a fixed curve.
- The stainless steel manifold assembly is supplied with two 50 mm manifold connections.
- The touch-panel GENIECON interface shows system status and allows direct setpoint changes on the door.
- Three Grundfos CRIE 5-2 vertical multistage pumps run in parallel on one common base frame.
- Inlet pressure monitoring provides dry-running protection if the suction supply is insufficient.
- An integrated 8L diaphragm tank carries small draw-offs and limits pump cycling.
- Maximum operating pressure of 16 bar with motors sealed to IP54.
- Factory assembled and wet-tested, the set arrives pre-configured for straightforward installation.
- Control decisions come from real pump curves, not generic models, via the GENIECON UNIT.
- Cascade logic brings pumps on-line and off-line against changing demand without manual intervention.
