Abstract

A screw pump includes a casing having inlet and outlet ports and a pump rotor rotatably mounted in the casing and having screw threads communicating with said inlet and outlet ports. The pump rotor is rotated by a reversible speed-controllable motor, typically a DC brushless motor, mounted in the casing to deliver a liquid such as a chemical solution from the inlet port through a liquid passage defined by the screw threads to the outlet port.
