FLUID PUMP AND PROCESS

An electric fluid pump may include a pump housing and an electric motor arranged therein. A rotor of the electric motor may have a rotor shaft and may be mounted in a rotatable manner in a stator body, which may have a stator embedded at least regionally therein. The pump housing may be subdivided into a dry and a wet region containing the rotor. The rotor shaft may be mounted on a bottom side in the pump housing and may be connected in terms of drive to a pump impeller on a pump-impeller side, facing away from the bottom side, of the pump housing. The pump housing may have, on the pump-impeller side, an aperture out of which the rotor shaft may project. The pump housing may have an internal first bearing collar arranged around the aperture, wherein the dry region may be located radially around the first bearing collar, and wherein an outside diameter of the first bearing collar may be less than a maximum diameter of the rotor.
