Abstract
An impeller pump has a pump chamber with an inlet and an outlet, and an impeller in the pump chamber. An auxiliary outlet out of the pump chamber together with an auxiliary outlet flap is provided, the auxiliary outlet flap having a closed position and at least one open position and being rotatable or movable between the positions. In the closed position, the auxiliary outlet flap closes off the auxiliary outlet and, in each of the open positions, the auxiliary outlet flap at least partially opens the auxiliary outlet. The auxiliary outlet flap has an actuator and is subjected to force loading by the actuator, such that the auxiliary outlet flap is moved automatically from the closed position into one of the open positions if the auxiliary outlet flap is free from fluid flow in a direction of rotation of the impeller.
