The first elementary motor (31, 41) of each of said double motors is connected to the pump (50) in parallel with a motor (10, 20) of the other group of motors, while the second elementary motor (32, 42) is connected in series with said motor of the other group. Thus there is a first and a second series flowline (C32, C42) between the motors. Said series flowlines are connected to a low pressure circuit through means (66) to limit the pressure in the series flowlines (C32, C42), and the device comprises means (R58, R60, R62) to limit the fluid flow rate circulating between the series flowlines and the low pressure circuit.

Abstract: A monomer to produce polybenzimidazole is dissolved in
polyphosphoric acid. For example, polysulfated phenylene
sulfonic acid (acidic group-possessing polymer) is further
dissolved in this solution. In this procedure, the acidic
group-possessing polymer and the monomer are adsorbed to one
another in accordance with the acid-base interaction. When
the monomer is polymerized, for example, by means of
dehydration polymerization in this state, then
polybenzimidazole is synthesized, and the polybenzimidazole
and the acidic group-possessing polymer are compatibilized
with each other to produce a compatibilized polymer. When
the compatibilized polymer is deposited as a solid, and the
solid is separated from polyphosphoric acid, then the
compatibilized polymer is obtained. A proton conductive
solid polymer electrolyte (10) as a final product is
manufactured by forming the compatibilized polymer to have a
predetermined shape.

key (3) and a pair (4,5) of contact carriers, that are movable and fixed

variations in the environment to be controlled and adapted to act on the
electric supply circuit of said apparatus depending on the perceived
heat level. 
     Said movable contact carrier (4) oscillates between two positions, an
open position at which said contact carriers are separated from each
other and respectively a closed position, at which said contact carriers
are in mutual contact, each of said positions being imposed by a
corresponding position of said command key. 
     The thermoprotector device acts in case of need on the electric
supply circuit and separates the contact carriers from each other by
forcing the command key to the open position. This action deactivates
the thermoprotector device and the switch therewith, and a new
activation of the latter can only take place by exerting a pressure on
the command key capable of bringing the key again to the closed position
and set the thermoprotector again ready for operation.
