The Pulsometer steam pump is a pistonless pump which was patented in 1872 [2] by American Charles Henry Hall. In 1875 a British engineer bought the patent rights of the Pulsometer [3] and it was introduced to the market soon thereafter. The invention was inspired by the Savery steam pump invented by Thomas Savery.

Specific Pump Power (SPP) is a metric in fluid dynamics that quantifies the energy-efficiency of pump systems. It is a measure of the electric power that is needed to operate a pump (or collection of pumps), relative to the volume flow rate. It is not constant for a given pump, but changes with both flow rate and pump pressure.
Different types of pumps are suitable for different applications, for example: a pump's maximum lift height also determines the applications it can be used for. Low-lift pumps are only suitable for the pumping of surface water (e.g., irrigation, drainage of lands, ...), while high-lift pumps allow deep water pumping (e.g., potable water pumping ...
