Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	In accordance with one aspect of the present exemplary embodiment, a molten metal pump comprising a refractory material body defining an elongated chamber is provided. The chamber is configured to receive a shaft and impeller assembly. The chamber includes an open top through which the shaft passes and a bottom inlet. The impeller is located in or adjacent the inlet. The body further defines an elongated passage adjacent to the chamber. An opening provides fluid communication between the elongated passage and the elongated chamber. The elongated passage is in fluid communication with a discharge channel configured to direct molten metal at least substantially perpendicular to an elongated axis of the elongated chamber.
