The invention concerns a device for sealing off the slot between a pump impeller and a pump housing in a centrifugal pump. The inlet part (2) of the pump housing (1) is designed with a collar (2) which concentrically surrounds a corresponding opposite collar formed part (5) of the pump impeller inlet, thus linking any possible leakage flow in parallel with the main flow into the impeller and minimizing the disturbance in the main flow. In order to minimize the leakage flow an O-ring (7) is arranged in front of the opening to the slot (8) between the parts (2) and (5). <IMAGE> |
