Centrifugal pump of the submersed or submersible type
A centrifugal pump, of the submersed or submersible type, includes a hydraulic part, with a hollow body inside which there is at least one impeller, a motor enclosed within a motor casing that isolates the motor from the pumping liquid, adapted to drive the impeller in rotation via a rotation transmission shaft. The centrifugal pump further includes an open compartment that spaces the motor casing from the hollow body that contains the at least one impeller and hydraulic sealing elements between the open compartment and the motor casing.
1. A centrifugal pump comprising: a hydraulic part, with a hollow body inside which there is at least one impeller, a motor enclosed within a motor casing defining a motor chamber that isolates said motor from the pumping liquid, adapted to drive said impeller in rotation by means of a rotation transmission shaft, wherein said centrifugal pump comprises an open compartment that spaces said motor casing from said hollow body that contains said at least one impeller and hydraulic sealing means between said open compartment and said motor casing, said hydraulic sealing means comprising an isolated and sealed sealing chamber being fluid-tight.
2. The centrifugal pump according to claim 1 , wherein said hydraulic sealing means comprise a sealing chamber interposed between said open compartment and said motor casing, with a mechanical seal inside said sealing chamber, and comprise a sealing ring, said mechanical seal and said sealing ring being installed on said rotation transmission shaft so as to surround said rotation transmission shaft.
3. The centrifugal pump according to claim 1 , wherein said hydraulic sealing means comprise a sealing chamber interposed between said open compartment and said motor and at least two sealing rings, of which at least one is installed between said sealing chamber and said motor, and at least one is installed between said open compartment and said sealing chamber.
4. The centrifugal pump according to claim 1 , wherein said hydraulic sealing means comprise a sealing chamber, interposed between said open compartment and said motor casing, with a mechanical seal inside said sealing chamber installed on said rotation transmission shaft, surrounding it.
5. The centrifugal pump according to claim 1 , further comprising a shredder keyed on said rotation transmission shaft inside said open compartment.
6. The centrifugal pump according to claim 1 , further comprising a mixing screw for the liquid to be pumped which is keyed on said rotation transmission shaft inside said open compartment.
7. The centrifugal pump according to claim 2 , wherein said sealing ring is installed between said open compartment and said sealing chamber.
8. The centrifugal pump according to claim 2 , wherein said sealing ring is installed substantially between said sealing chamber and said motor.
9. The centrifugal pump according to claim 3 , further comprising a pair of said sealing rings installed in series between said open compartment and said sealing chamber.
