Question: What is a dry-running pump?

Answer:

In a dry-running pump, the component that comes into contact with the medium (the wetted part) is separate from the motor. The seal of the pump shaft in the wetted part is provided in the form of a mechanical seal. The pump is driven by a motor connected to the pump shaft by a coupling.
