Claims (15)

  1. Pompe centrifuge comprenant une tubulure d'aspiration et une tubulure de refoulement (3, 5) et un capteur de débit (11) qui mesure le débit volumique, caractérisée en ce que le capteur de débit (11) a une fixation amovible dans la paroi (7) de la tubulure d'aspiration ou de refoulement (3, 5) et pénètre par une partie sensitive (12) du courant de fluide dans le canal de tubulure (4), et le canal (4) dans la tubulure d'aspiration ou de refoulement est sans cintrage dans la direction d'écoulement dans la zone du capteur (11).
  2. Pompe centrifuge suivant la revendication 1, caractérisée en ce que le canal (4) présente une section transversale constante dans la zone du capteur (11).
  3. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que le capteur est un capteur de débit à vortex.
  4. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que la partie sensitive (12) présente une ailette de détection.
  5. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce qu'un corps de retenue (15) est disposé dans le canal (4) en amont de la partie sensitive (12) dans la direction d'écoulement, lequel corps est fixé sur le support (10) du capteur de débit.
  6. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que le support (10) du capteur de débit forme un corps cylindrique, qui s'insère dans un creux cylindrique (9) de la paroi de tubulure (7).
  7. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que le support (10) du détecteur de débit (11) reçoit l'électronique de détection.
  8. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que, dans la zone du capteur (11), la section transversale du canal de la tubulure d'aspiration ou de refoulement (3, 5) est essentiellement circulaire, ovale, elliptique ou rectangulaire avec des angles arrondis.
  9. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que la section transversale du canal de la tubulure de refoulement ou d'aspiration (3, 5) présente un rétrécissement dans la zone du capteur (11).
  10. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que, pour l'homogénéisation de l'écoulement dans le canal (4) de la tubulure d'aspiration ou de refoulement (3, 5), une grille (6), des lamelles ou au moins une lame sont disposées et orientées dans la direction d'écoulement en amont et/ou en aval du capteur (11).
  11. Pompe centrifuge suivant la revendication 10, caractérisée en ce qu'une grille (6), des lamelles ou au moins une lame sont disposées à l'endroit du débouché du canal de tubulure (4) dans le compartiment de pompe.
  12. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que le capteur de débit (11) est disposé dans la paroi (7) de la tubulure d'aspiration (3).
  13. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que la zone du canal (4c) sans cintrage présente une longueur, qui correspond à 20 à 50% de la longueur totale du canal d'aspiration (4).
  14. Pompe centrifuge suivant la revendication 13, caractérisée en ce que la zone du canal (4c) sans cintrage présente une longueur, qui correspond à 30 à 40% de la longueur totale du canal d'aspiration (4).
  15. Pompe centrifuge suivant l'une des revendications précédentes, caractérisée en ce que la zone du canal (4d) entre l'extrémité de la zone de canal rectiligne (4c) et l'extrémité du canal (4b), débouchant dans le compartiment de pompe, présente une longueur qui correspond à 30 à 50% de la longueur totale du canal d'aspiration (4).
