A typical Mark II hand pump in India. The pump was designed in the 1970s in a joint effort between the Government of India, UNICEF, and The World Health Organization (WHO) to address the severe drought and a water shortage affecting India during that period and to prevent evacuation of villages to refugee camps.
A peristaltic pump, also commonly known as a roller pump, is a type of positive displacement pump used for pumping a variety of fluids. The fluid is contained in a flexible tube fitted inside a circular pump casing. Most peristaltic pumps work through rotary motion, though linear peristaltic pumps have also been made.
First European depiction of a piston pump, by Taccola, c.1450. [2] Irrigation is under way by pump-enabled extraction directly from the Gumti, seen in the background, in Comilla, Bangladesh. One sort of pump once common worldwide was a hand-powered water pump, or 'pitcher pump'.
Pumps are subject and will be subject to EU ecodesign regulations [3] As from 1 January 2013, the circulator Regulation will come into force. [4] Europump organised a conference on Ecodesign on 6 October 2011 to discuss with stakeholders (including the European Commission) about ecodesign and pumps.
A short video recording of such a pump in action can be viewed on YouTube. [ 6 ] Although the flow rate for a water well pumpjack is lower than that from a jet pump and the lifted water is not pressurised, the beam pumping unit has the option of hand pumping in an emergency, by hand-rotating the pumpjack cam to its lowest position, and ...
Cutaway side-view diagram of an axial piston pump 3-D rendering of an axial piston pump with the parts labeled Animation of an axial piston pump in operation. An axial piston pump has a number of pistons (usually an odd number) arranged in a circular array within a housing which is commonly referred to as a cylinder block, rotor or barrel.
The joint venture KSB Shanghai Pumps Co. Ltd. was founded in 1994. MIL Controls Ltd., Mala (Kerala), India, producer of ANSI valves and control valves, was acquired years later. In 2003 KSB took over Dutch pump supplier DP industries B.V., producer of pumps made of deep-drawn stainless sheet steel for building services and industrial applications.
The affinity laws (also known as the "Fan Laws" or "Pump Laws") for pumps/fans are used in hydraulics, hydronics and/or HVAC to express the relationship between variables involved in pump or fan performance (such as head, volumetric flow rate, shaft speed) and power. They apply to pumps, fans, and hydraulic turbines. In these rotary implements ...
