Grundfos CRN 20-7 — material number 99917893 — is a 7-stage Grundfos CRN vertical multistage centrifugal pump with a 20 HP, 3-phase, 208-230/460 V NEMA TEFC motor and a HQQE shaft seal.
The 7-stage build delivers 665 ft of head (115 GPM, ~287 psi) at the BEP and a 798 ft shutoff — the typical pick for mid-rise pressure boosting, RO pretreatment, and cooling-tower makeup.
