Abstract
Intermediate drives may provide containment for fluid handling devices, such as pumps. Such intermediate drivees may one or more utilize magnetic drives to provide static barriers for mechanical devices. A fluid handling assembly may include a fluid handling device comprising a housing, a housing cavity, a fluid inlet, and a fluid outlet. An intermediate drive may be positioned and configured to transmit energy from a motor to the fluid handling device while providing a secondary containment area that is separate from the primary containment area provided by the fluid handling device.
