ABSTRACT:
Motor driven pumps are provided of the canned, or isolated stator type which include a center shaft, rotating shaft support bearings, controlled cooling, and automatic thrust balancing construction, utilizing fixed orifices. A snubber is carried on the shaft at the shaft end opposite to the impeller. The snubber has an en surface which faces an end liner plate. Thrust balancing is achieved by axial movement of the shaft which permits fluid flow between the end liner plate and the snubber.
