Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a circulation pump, in particular to a direct current brushless circulation pump with water shortage protection. Background Art

[0002] A circulation pump is a device mainly used for circulating liquids. It is widely used in many fields such as industry, medical field, and laboratory because of its fast and efficient liquid transportation, stability and accuracy, and ability to adapt to various complex environments.

[0003] In the process of liquid transportation (such as water), the liquid plays the role of medium and lubrication in the pump. When the liquid is insufficient and in a water-deficient state, there is a lack of lubricating medium between the rotor and the stator in the motor, but the circulating pump is still in operation, which can easily lead to motor damage. Therefore, in order to ensure the integrity of the motor, the liquid level will be monitored during the process of using the circulating pump for liquid transportation. However, the liquid level detection devices on the market currently usually use sensors. In the actual detection process, in order to ensure the accuracy and stability of the detection results, a lot of costs need to be invested. Utility Model Content
