Abstract
An axially split pump for conveying a fluid has an axially split housing that includes a bottom part and a cover. The bottom part has a first sealing surface and the cover has a second sealing surface, the bottom part and the cover being fastened so that the two sealing surfaces have direct contact. A first sealing groove for the reception of a first string-like sealing element is in the sealing surfaces, and a second sealing groove is provided for the reception of a second string-like element, the second sealing groove being connected to the first sealing groove via an opening. A connection element is in the opening that has two lateral cut-outs respectively for the reception of a one of the string-like sealing elements. The cut-outs are arranged and configured so that the two string-like sealing elements run substantially in parallel in the region of the connection element.
