ABSTRACT:
The centrifugal pump is of the submersible type and is useful in pumping sand laden fluids. The pump includes a rotatable impeller and fixed diffuser and has an improved bearing that comprises an annular thrust member that is constructed from material having a hardness greater than the hardness of sand. The thrust member is attached to the impeller and has a bearing surface thereon. A second annular bearing member, which is also constructed from material having hardness greater than sand, is attached to the diffuser and has a bearing surface thereon disposed in juxtaposition with the bearing surface on the thrust member.
