Abstract
An electric pump includes an impeller, a shaft and a motor having at least one permanent magnet rotor and a stator. The impeller is coupled by the shaft to the at least one permanent magnet rotor of the electric motor. A hermetically sealed housing is provided in which the shaft is supported and which has openings for delivery side and suction side connections for material to be pumped. The rotor is disposed inside the housing and the stator of the electric motor is disposed outside the housing. At least one stator carrier is attached to the housing, the stator being mounted in the at least one stator carrier. The at least one stator carrier is of one-piece configuration so as to enclose the housing across an entire circumference thereof in a cup-shaped manner. The at least one stator carrier holds a liquid for cooling the at least one stator.
