Differential pressure is generated by the numerous grooves around the impellers.
(2) Fuel entering the inlet porr flows inside the motor from the pumping chambe. and is forced through th
port via the check valve.
lf tuel flow is obstructed at the discharge side of the tuel line, the relief valve will open to bypass the
