Abstract
A feed pump includes an impeller with two rings of guide blades delimiting blade chambers. The rings of guide blades concentrically surrounding one another and have different angular intervals between guide blades. The angular intervals between the guide blades of each ring vary within a range of values and ranges of values of each ring of guide blades is different to avoid the additions of noise emissions the feed pump consequently has noises which cause particularly little disturbance.
