Abstract
A wastewater pump for conveying solids-laden wastewater includes a spiral housing with an inlet opening, an impeller with at least one vane having a leading edge running from the impeller hub in a backwardly curved manner, and at least one finger for wiping off contaminants from the leading edge. The at least one finger is arranged on the inlet inner wall and extends in the direction of the impeller rotational axis. At least one groove is present in a suction-side inner wall of the housing to receive and convey material that is removed by the at least one finger from the leading edge to. The leading edge of the impeller and the surface of the at least one finger which faces toward the leading edge are at an angle of 5° to 75° with respect to the rotational axis.
