Product Overview
Across installations such as tea rooms, staff kitchens and en-suite banks in small commercial sites, the Hydro Multi-E 2 CRE 5-12 maintains stable pressure at every draw-off point. Specify part number 99614356 and the whole set lands tested, assembled and ready for pipework.
The system supports flow rates up to 305 L/min. It can develop up to 116 metres of head for dependable pressure boosting. Because every pump carries its own frequency converter and the Multi-Master software elects the controlling pump itself, losing a control unit or pressure sensor means seamless handover rather than a shutdown.
For installation, the booster is supplied pre-assembled with stainless steel manifolds, two 50 mm manifold connections, isolation valves, non-return valves, pressure sensors and a gauge, plus a 24L diaphragm tank. It is designed for 3 x 380-415 V power at 50 / 60 Hz with a rated current of 8.86 A, with IP54 motor protection and a 16 bar maximum system pressure. Liquid-temperature suitability is 5°C to 60°C. Inlet pressure is rated to 16 bar.
Applications include industrial process supply, high-rise apartments and hospitals. The control flexibility suits clean-water boosting in new installations and upgrades.
Features
- At P2 each main pump is 2.2 kW, covering the duty without oversizing the frame.
- An integrated 24L diaphragm tank carries small draw-offs and limits pump cycling.
- Stainless steel manifolds provide two 50 mm manifold connections ready for pipework.
- Setup and monitoring run through the Grundfos GO app rather than a panel visit.
- Energy draw matches the actual job because speed follows demand, not a fixed curve.
- The system protects its pumps against dry running if the incoming supply is lost.
- Factory assembled and wet-tested, the set arrives pre-configured for straightforward installation.
- Two Grundfos CRE 5-12 vertical multistage pumps run in parallel on one common base frame.
- Pumps are cut in and out according to demand, every running unit turning at the same speed to hold the pressure set point.
- Frequency converters on the motors pair with IE5 permanent magnet motors for efficient part-load operation.
- Maximum operating pressure of 16 bar with motors sealed to IP54.
- Both constant-pressure and proportional-pressure modes are available, so plant rooms can tune response to pipework.
- No external controller required: Multi-Master redundancy lets either pump assume the controlling role.
