These figures provide simplified information for searching, filtering and initial comparison. They are not a complete specification. Exact details depend on the model and configuration.
Power rating: Usually the motor’s rated mechanical output (P2). Electrical input power (P1) is a different value. Check the product’s nameplate or manufacturer’s documentation to confirm which rating applies.
Outlet size: The nominal size class is expressed on a millimetre basis: for example, DN40 denotes a nominal 40 mm size. It does not specify the exact measured opening, connection type, thread, flange drilling or pressure rating.
Head and flow: Indicative figures describing the pump’s performance envelope, rather than a single operating duty point. Do not assume maximum flow is available at maximum head, or that every combination within the ranges is achievable. Minimum figures do not establish safe continuous operating limits. Consult the relevant performance curve.
Check the product description, nameplate and manufacturer’s documentation before selection or installation. Please contact us before purchasing if you need help confirming suitability or connection details.

Genuine Grundfos shaft seal and gasket kit 96932445 for compatible CM and CME 10, 15 and 25 pumps in I and G material versions. This service kit supplies the mechanical shaft-seal components and associated O-rings and fixing parts specified in the manufacturer's contents table.
The AQQE/V specification uses silicon-carbide rotating and stationary seal faces. Grundfos lists both EPDM and FKM O-rings in this kit so the appropriate elastomer components can be selected for the pump and its application. It supplies components for one mechanical shaft seal, with alternative elastomer sets.
The kit is intended for repairs where inspection identifies worn or damaged sealing components. Match the kit to the pump's exact eight-digit Grundfos product number. Individually checked manufacturer references are listed at the bottom of this description.

Elastomer selection: EPDM and FKM are alternatives at each listed O-ring position, not two rings to be installed together in one groove. Select the material specified for the pump's sealing location and liquid. The unused alternative rings do not represent a second complete seal.
This is a shaft-seal service kit, not a complete pump overhaul kit. Impellers, chambers, neck rings, motor bearings and the separate drain/fill-plug kit are not included in the manufacturer's contents list. Refer to the listing photographs for the actual supplied components.
Match 96932445 against the recommended spare parts for the pump's exact eight-digit product number. The CM/CME family name, flow-size number or AQQE/AQQV seal code alone is not a sufficient fit check.
I and G identify the pump's material version: I is the stainless-steel AISI 304 version and G is the stainless-steel AISI 316 version. The cast-iron A-material version has a separate service-kit selection. In a designation such as CM 10-3 A-R-G-E-AQQE, the first A identifies the basic pump version; G is the relevant material code.
A identifies an O-ring mechanical shaft seal with a fixed driver. The two Q letters identify silicon-carbide rotating and stationary faces. E identifies EPDM secondary seals and V identifies FKM. The E/V notation on this kit reflects the alternative elastomer components supplied for the appropriate sealing arrangement.
Yes. Grundfos lists one EPDM and one FKM O-ring at each of positions 102, 107 and 31. Use the correct material for each location and application. The availability of both materials does not mean they are interchangeable in every liquid or temperature range.
No. The catalogue lists one stationary face, one rotating face and one set of the associated mechanical components. The extra elastomer pieces provide material alternatives for that assembly. This listing is for one service kit.
They are the stainless-steel pump material variants: I corresponds to AISI 304 and G to AISI 316 in the CM/CME type key. These letters describe the pump construction; they do not describe the silicon-carbide seal-face material or the motor voltage.
The position of the letter matters. In those examples, the first A is the basic pump-version code, R is the threaded-connection code, and I or G is the material code. An A appearing near the start of the designation does not by itself select the cast-iron A-material service kit. Match the complete designation and product number.
No. Grundfos lists 96932445 for the CM/CME 10/15/25 I/G versions and 96932394 as the AQQE/V gasket-and-seal kit for the A-material versions. A shared seal code does not make the complete kits identical. Use the selection specified for the exact pump.
This is the kit catalogued for sizes 10, 15 and 25. Grundfos lists 96932440 separately for the AQQE/V I/G versions of CM/CME 1, 3 and 5. Do not select a kit solely from its seal-material code.
They identify the CM/CME hydraulic size ranges, based on nominal flow at 50Hz in cubic metres per hour. They are not the kit's shaft diameter, the pipe connection size or a motor-power rating. The number after the hyphen in a pump designation identifies the number of impellers.
Yes, where Grundfos lists 96932445 for the exact model. CME denotes a pump with an integrated frequency converter. The electronic motor controls do not, on their own, determine the required mechanical shaft seal. The confirmed references below include both CM and CME variants.
The kit consists of mechanical parts and has no electrical supply requirement. Motor ratings and regional electrical versions can accompany different pump configurations. Check the exact product number and spare-parts record rather than choosing from voltage, phase or frequency alone.
Those codes can identify different face materials or elastomers. The manufacturer records for the two AVBE pumps and one AQBE pump listed separately below include 96932445 among their recommended spare parts. Their published original seal codes differ from AQQE/V, so confirm the intended service selection and application before changing the seal materials. These specific records do not establish a universal substitution for other AVBE, AQBE or AQQK pumps.
Use the manufacturer's selection for the actual liquid, concentration, additives and temperature. EPDM is commonly used for water duties, but it is generally unsuitable for mineral oil. FKM has different chemical and temperature characteristics. The complete pump, including its other wetted materials, must also be suitable for the liquid.
No. It includes the positions and quantities shown in the contents table. Other components, including drain/fill-plug seals, are listed separately by Grundfos. Identify the source of a leak and the parts disturbed during dismantling before ordering the repair components.
It can address leakage caused by a defective shaft seal when correctly selected and installed. Leakage can also come from casing joints, plugs or damaged components. Inspect the shaft, sealing seats and bearing condition and investigate the original failure before fitting the new parts.
No. Grundfos states that dry running must be avoided. The faces need the correct liquid conditions for lubrication and cooling. Fill and vent the pump in accordance with its instructions before starting; hard seal faces do not make dry operation acceptable.
The permitted operating limits depend on the complete pump configuration, seal material and liquid. This kit has no single pressure-and-temperature rating that overrides the pump's limits. Refer to the pump nameplate, its operating instructions and the applicable shaft-seal operating-range chart.
A competent pump engineer should follow the service instructions for the exact version. Check the shaft and seal seats, keep the faces clean and undamaged, identify each elastomer correctly, and use the specified assembly lubricants, tightening torques and shaft-adjustment procedure. A new seal does not correct damaged mating parts or incorrect assembly.

Identical model names with different product numbers are retained as separate records. Full model codes are preserved where published; any abbreviated manufacturer designations are shown separately.
Before ordering: Match the exact product number, installed pump configuration and required elastomer material. These are the confirmed references found during our research, not a claim to cover every historical, regional or specially configured pump. Additional compatible references may exist.
Grundfos lists 96932445 for these exact product numbers but publishes abbreviated model names in the retrieved records. No missing material, seal or electrical codes have been inferred. Use the product number and check the installed configuration.
Service-selection check required: Grundfos lists kit 96932445 for these exact references, but their published pump names specify AVBE or AQBE rather than AQQE/AQQV. The codes identify different face materials. Their inclusion records the manufacturer's recommended-spares listing; it does not establish that AQQE was the factory-fitted seal or that every similarly named pump can use this kit. Confirm the intended service selection and liquid suitability before ordering.
The following Hydro Multi-E system record lists 96932445. The kit services one compatible pump shaft seal within the booster set. It is not a complete set of seals for every pump in the system. Confirm the installed pump product number and quantity required.
