Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a centrifugal pump for conveying a gaseous suspension, in particular a fiber pulp suspension, which has a pump impeller (12) with at least one opening (15) in the base plate and ribs (16) on the rear side, where a separator unit (17) is provided consisting of a separator housing (25) with a stationary disc (18) and a disc (22) that rotates together with the pump shaft (21), where the separator unit (17) is arranged in the pump housing adjoining the pump impeller (12) on its rear side when viewing the pump impeller (12) in axial direction and where the separator housing (25) has a gas collecting chamber (31) with a gas discharge pipe (28). It is characterized by the disc (22) that rotates together with the pump shaft (21) having a closed surface (23) without openings. As a result, pulp losses are reduced and the centrifugal pump achieves better stability when pumping a gaseous suspension, particularly a fiber pulp suspension.
