Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a multistage centrifugal pump assembly with at least two impellers, ie an at least two-stage centrifugal pump assembly. Background technique
[0002] In this multi-stage centrifugal pump unit, a plurality of impellers are arranged successively along the conveying direction, so that the pressure is increased step by step. The problem with such centrifugal pump assemblies is that they must first be evacuated of air and filled with liquid when they start to operate. This centrifugal pump unit is not self-priming. This is disadvantageous in certain use cases, for example in fire extinguishing installations where continuous injection of liquid, in particular water, cannot be ensured. In such installations it is important that the pumps used are self-priming. Contents of the invention
[0003] Therefore the object of the present invention is to improve the multi-stage centrifugal pump unit so that it becomes self-priming. [00...
