The Grundfos BM 32-23NE (product number 93205215) is a 23-stage high-pressure booster module built for reverse-osmosis and filtration duty, rated 167 US gpm at 810.4 ft, driven by a 40 HP three-phase motor. The pump element runs inside a pressure sleeve, so the full system pressure is contained by the sleeve rather than the pump housing.
