ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a bi-directional single-impeller centrifugal pump having a filter screen enclosed within the pump housing and interposed, in the pump chamber, between the single pump inlet and one of two outlets defined in the housing for filtering the fluid pumped through the one outlet in response to the impeller rotating in one direction. When the impeller is reversed to pump the fluid through the other outlet, the particles of lint etc., retained within the pump chamber by the filter screen are then free to exit the pump as flushed therefrom by the fluid being pumped through the other outlet.
