ABSTRACT:
A centrifugal fluid pump assembly has a pump body and a controller. The pump body has a housing, a pump section having an impeller rotating inside the housing, an impeller rotational torque generating section having a motor for rotating the impeller and an impeller position control section. The impeller rotates without contacting the housing. The controller has an impeller-floating position control function for changing the floating position of the impeller inside the housing by using the impeller position control section, a function of measuring electric current for driving the motor and a fluid viscosity calculation function for calculating a viscosity of fluid by utilizing a variation amount of the motor-driving electric current obtained by changing the floating position of the impeller.
