        Know all by these presents, that the undersigned hereby constitutes and
appoints each of Anthony M. D'Iorio and Julie A. Constantinides, signing
singly, the undersigned's true and lawful attorney-in-fact to:

        (1)   execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the
              undersigned's capacity as an officer and/or director of Crane
              Company (the "Company"), Forms 3, 4 and 5 (including any
              amendments thereto) in accordance with Section 16(a) of the
              Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"),
              and the rules thereunder;

        (2)   do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the
              undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete and
              execute any such Forms 3, 4 and 5 (including any amendments
              thereto) and timely file such form with the United States
              Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or
              similar authority, including without limitation the filing of a
              Form ID or any other documents necessary or appropriate to obtain
              codes and passwords or otherwise enable the undersigned to file
              the Forms 3, 4 and 5 electronically with the SEC; and

        (3)   take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with
              the foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may
              be of benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required
              by, the undersigned, it being understood that the documents
              executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned
              pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and
              shall contain such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact
              may approve in such attorney-in-fact's discretion.

        The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power
and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever
required, necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights
and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the
undersigned might or could do if personally present, with full power of
substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming all that such
attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes, shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the
rights and powers herein granted. The undersigned acknowledges that the
foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in serving in such capacity at the request of the
undersigned, are not assuming, nor is the Company assuming, any of the
undersigned's responsibilities to comply with, or any liability for the failure
to comply with, any provision of Section 16 of the Exchange Act of 1934. The
undersigned hereby agrees to indemnify the attorney-in-fact and the Company
from and against any demand, damage, loss, cost or expense arising from any
false or misleading information provided by the undersigned to the attorney-in-
fact.

        This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 (including any
amendments) thereto with respect to the undersigned's holdings of and
transactions in securities issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by the
undersigned in a signed writing delivered to each of the foregoing attorneys-
in-fact. This Power of Attorney supersedes any prior power of attorney in
connection with the undersigned's capacity as an officer and/or director of the
Company. This Power of Attorney shall expire as to any individual attorney-in-
fact if such attorney-in-fact ceases to be an attorney employed with the
Company.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney
to be executed as of this 6th day of February 2023.
