A pump arrangement includes an axial-flow machine and a drive to convey fluid mounted in a housing. The axial-flow machine is formed by at least one first rotor having permanent magnets, a shaft connected to the first rotor and a stator arrangement with stator teeth distributed concentrically around the shaft axis circumferentially and axially separated from the first rotor by an air gap. The stator teeth have axially-opposite end portions and a tooth core therebetween wound with at least one coil winding. The second end portion, turned away from the first rotor, of each stator tooth forms a tooth root joined to a back plate. The first rotor is an eccentric disk and on the side away from the stator arrangement has an eccentric cam, radially spaced from the shaft axis, and rotatably and torque-transmittingly connected to the drive. An axial-flow machine and a compressor includes the pump arrangement.

An object of the present invention is to improve, using a simple configuration, heat dissipation of a regenerative resistor that is disposed in a vacuum pump control device (controller) connected to a vacuum pump. The regenerative resistor disposed in the vacuum pump control device is stored in an aluminum die-cast casing. More concretely, a housing of the vacuum pump control device is prepared by aluminum die casting (metal mold casting). A regenerative resistor storing portion (aluminum die-cast casing) provided with a hollow portion is provided on a top panel of the aluminum die cast, the hollow portion being designed to have a size accommodating the entire regenerative resistor. The regenerative resistor is fitted into the hollow portion, and an opening section of the hollow portion is sealed with an aluminum sheet of the same material as that of the casing. In this manner, the regenerative resistor can removably be stored in the aluminum die-cast casing.
