An electric screw coolant pump for integration into a temperature control circuit of an assembly of which the temperature is to be controlled. An accommodation housing includes a feeder line and a return line of the temperature control circuit, which open into a cavity. A part of the cavity surrounds a spindle housing and communicates with an outlet opening of the spindle housing as well as the feeder line. A sealing element, which provides a seal between a suction side and a pressure side, is arranged towards an end surface of the axial end of the inserted spindle housing.

A method of sealing a coolant control valve of a cooling system for a power device which generates heat as a by-product of operation. The cooling system includes a pump, a heat exchanger, and coolant. The valve includes: an internal channel in fluid communication with the exchanger; a sealing package in contact a surface of the coolant control valve and bounding a portion of the cooling system and the channel; and a rotary element in the channel and rotatable to open and close the valve. The portion is bounded in part by the valve and the sealing package. The method includes: starting-up the device; creating a pressure differential of at least 0.2 bar between the coolant in the portion of the cooling system, and the coolant in the internal channel; rotating, using a motor, the rotary element; opening the valve; and pumping, using the pump, the coolant through the internal channel.
