2. Hand pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

   The depth from which a hand pump will suck is limited by atmospheric pressure to an operating depth of less than 7 meters. [5] The height to which a hand pump will lift is governed by the ability of the pump and the operator to lift the weight in the delivery pipe.

3. Tensiometer (soil science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensiometer_(soil_science)

   The tensiometer is buried in the soil, and a hand pump is used to pull a partial vacuum. As water is pulled out of the soil by plants and evaporation, the vacuum inside the tube increases. When the soil is wetted flow can also occur in the reverse direction: as water is added to the soil, the vacuum inside the tube pulls moisture from the soil ...

4. Net positive suction head - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_positive_suction_head

   If an NPSH A is say 10 bar then the pump you are using will deliver exactly 10 bar more over the entire operational curve of a pump than its listed operational curve. Example: A pump with a max. pressure head of 8 bar (80 metres) will actually run at 18 bar if the NPSH A is 10 bar. i.e.: 8 bar (pump curve) plus 10 bar NPSH A = 18 bar.

5. India Mark II - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India_Mark_II

   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. Prior to the pump's design, poor ...

6. Comparison of pumps - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_pumps

   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 ...

7. Treadle pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treadle_Pump

   A treadle pump is a human-powered suction pump that sits on top of a well and is used for irrigation. [1] It is designed to lift water from a depth of seven metres or less. The pumping is activated by stepping up and down on a treadle, which are levers, which drive pistons, creating cylinder suction that draws groundwater to the surfa

9. Airlift (dredging device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airlift_(dredging_device)

   It is a type of suction dredge. A water dredge or water eductor may be used for the same purpose. [1] Typically, the airlift is constructed from a 3-metre to 10 metre long, 10 cm diameter pipe. A controllable compressed air supply vents into the inside, lower end of the pipe (The input end always being the lower end).
