Abstract
A centrifugal pump unit (1) is disclosed having a body (4) that includes a suction connection (5), a pressure connection (6) and a pump chamber (7) connecting the suction and pressure connections. The centrifugal pump unit further includes an impeller (8) disposed in the pump chamber and at least one electromagnetic flow sensor (3) arranged to measure flow in at least a part of the suction connection and/or pressure connection and/or pump chamber for determining a flow rate of a fluid through the centrifugal pump unit or for determining a control signal equivalent of the flow rate for control purposes.
