Grundfos multi-stage submersible pump built into a

stainless steel sleeve. The pump is powered via a v-belt
pulley head by means of an electric standard motor. The
RO filter
pulley ball bearing features an automatic lubricating
and cooling system. Permeated liquid
The axial thrust from the pump is absorbed by a built-in
thrust bearing.
BMET modules consist of a BME module with a second High-pressure pump
Grundfos submersible pump which is powered via a
Pelton turbine and connected in series with the first
pump. The modules are designed for use in reverse
osmosis systems where the energy from the resulting Pressure
high-pressure concentrate is recovered by the turbine. Feed pump regulating
valve
This gives energy savings of up to 34% compared to
conventional systems. The shaft seal is made of carbon/

silicon carbide, specially designed for high pressures.
The rubber bearings in the pump are water-lubricated, Raw-water supply Concentrate
and ball bearings in the motor are grease-lubricated. (waste)

Connections
RO filter
Suction and discharge connections: PJE (Victaulic)
coupling 3", ø76 mm.
Permeated liquid
Outlet, turbine: Hose connection ø300 mm.
