A hydraulic system includes a circulation pump assembly (2) provided with a speed controller (4, 26), a hydraulic circuit (A, B) connected to the circulation pump assembly (2) as well as a mechanical switch device (86, 88; 120, 122; 120″, 122″) which is subjected to pressure from a fluid in the hydraulic circuit (A, B) and which can be moved into at least two different switch positions. The mechanical switch device (28; 86, 28; 120, 122) can be moved by the circulation pump assembly (2) by way of a hydraulic coupling via the fluid. The speed controller is configured to initiate a movement of the switch device (86, 88; 120, 122; 120″, 122″) by way of at least one hydraulic force acting thereon and causing a movement of the switch device (86, 88; 120,122; 120″, 122″), produced via the hydraulic circuit, via a speed adaptation of the circulation pump assembly.

An impeller for a pump for a dishwasher having a base with an axis of rotation, and at least one fin protruding from the base. The impeller also has a cap removably coupled to the impeller and at least one blade integrally formed with the cap.

An electrical submersible well pump (ESP) has a motor electrical connector mounted to an exterior of the motor. A motor sensor connects to an interior side of the motor electrical connector. Seal first and second electrical connectors mount to an exterior of a seal/motor adapter. A seal internal wire within the seal section electrically connects interior sides of the seal first and second electrical connectors together. An external motor jumper wire extends alongside the motor between the motor electrical connector and the seal first electrical connector. A pump electrical connector mounts to an exterior of a pump/seal adapter and connects to a pump sensor within the pump. An external seal jumper wire connects between the seal second electrical connector and the pump electrical connector.

An electrical submersible pump (ESP) isolates its motor lubricant from pumped product without requiring a bellows, diaphragm, bladder, or external lubricant pressurizing system. A pair of nested isolation chambers below the motor housing are filled with a barrier fluid that is non-reactive, non-miscible, and higher in density than the pumped product and the motor lubricant. As the motor lubricant expands and contracts after pump start-up and shut-down, motor lubricant and barrier fluid are exchanged between the motor housing and the isolation chambers via three interconnections, while pumped product is exchanged with the inner barrier chamber, while being isolated from the motor housing. The interconnections extend between the bottom of the motor housing and the bottom of the outer barrier chamber, between the top of the outer barrier chamber and the bottom of the inner barrier chamber, and between the top of the inner barrier chamber and the pumped product.

An electric submersible pumping system includes a motor filled with motor lubricant, a pump driven by the motor, and a fluid expansion chamber connected to the motor. The fluid expansion chamber includes a seal bag filled with a seal bag lubricant and a bellows contained within the seal bag. The bellows includes an interior in fluid communication with the motor and an exterior in fluid communication with the seal bag lubricant.
