Abstract
A multistage canned motor pump comprising a pump section including a plurality of pump chambers and a motor section behind the pump section, both the sections having in common a single rotation shaft, and further a balance disk between the pump and motor sections, wherein an external circulation system is provided so that a part of a treating liquid discharged from a last stage pump chamber is circulated from a front rotor chamber through a pressure chamber accommodating the balance disk to a rear rotor chamber while the remaining part of the treating liquid is supplied to a rear bearing section for lubrication of the bearing section and further circulated through an external pipe to a pump section port for cooling of the motor section, and wherein an annular balance sheet is provided a verge at a high pressure side of the balance disk in the pressure chamber to control a flow rate of the treating liquid to thereby reduce a pressure of a circulation flow of the treating liquid toward the motor section.
