Abstract
A multistage pump for conveying a fluid includes an outer pump housing, at least first and last stages arranged in the outer pump housing. Each stage includes a stage casing, an impeller, and a diffusor. A pump inlet supplies the fluid to the impeller of the first stage and, a pump outlet discharges the fluid. Each impeller is mounted to a pump shaft in a torque proof manner, and the impellers are arranged one after another on the pump shaft. The last stage includes a collector with a collector chamber to receive the fluid from the diffusor of the last stage. The first stage includes guide channels to receive the fluid from a diffusor and to guide the fluid to the impeller of the next stage. The collector chamber is displaced in the axial direction with respect to the diffusor of the last stage.
