Abstract
A fluid pump includes an inlet plate with an inlet; an outlet plate, the outlet plate having an outlet plate outlet passage; an outlet; an electric motor having a shaft which rotates; a pumping element coupled to the shaft such that rotation of the pumping element by the shaft causes fluid to be pumped from the inlet to the outlet, the inlet plate interfacing with the pumping element in an inlet sealing surface interface and the outlet plate interfacing with the pumping element in an outlet sealing surface interface; a purge passage which receives fluid from the outlet plate outlet passage, the purge passage being in fluid communication with the inlet sealing surface interface and the outlet sealing surface interface; and a filter downstream of the outlet plate outlet passage which filters fluid that passes through the purge passage prior to reaching the inlet and outlet sealing surface interfaces.
