A canned motor pump is a type of centrifugal pump in which the pump and a hermetically sealed electric motor are mounted on a single shaft, eliminating the need for mechanical seals or other sealing components. The entire rotating assembly is submerged in the liquid being pumped, while the motor's stator and rotor are protected from the fluid by a corrosion-resistant, non-magnetic liner and sleeve. A portion of the pumped liquid is diverted through the motor to provide cooling and bearing lubrication.
