Abstract
An electric coolant pump for providing an automotive cooling circuit with a coolant includes an electric motor to drive the electric coolant pump, a pump housing, a separating can, a printed circuit board, and permanently height-adjusted supporting elements. The separating can includes a substantially plane separating can bottom wall which lies in a cross plane, and a substantially cylindrical separating can shell which fluidically separates a wet zone from a dry zone. The printed circuit board is arranged substantially parallel to and not in direct contact with the separating can bottom wall so that an axial gap exists which is filled with a heat conductive means. The supporting elements axially support the plane printed circuit board. Each supporting element has a distal tip which is trimmed to define a height-constant axial gap having a nominal gap height between the printed circuit board and the separating can bottom wall.
