  2. Submersible pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submersible_pump

    A 0.75 HP bore-well submersible pump which had been used to pump groundwater One style of submersible pump for industrial use. Outlet pipe and electrical cable not connected. A submersible pump (or electric submersible pump (ESP) is a device which has a hermetically sealed motor close-coupled to the pump body. The whole assembly is submerged in ...

  3. Peristaltic pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peristaltic_pump

    The pump used a leather hose which did not need to self-open when released by the rollers, instead relying on the incoming water having sufficient pressure to fill the open inlet end on each cycle. [1] The peristaltic pump was first patented in the United States by Rufus Porter and J. D. Bradley in 1855 (U.S. Patent number 12753) [2] as a well ...

  4. Pumping station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumping_station

    Submersible pumps are mounted on two vertical guide rails and seal onto a permanently fixed "duckfoot", which forms both a mount and also a vertical bend for the discharge pipe. For maintenance or replacement, submersible pumps are raised by a chain off of the duckfoot and up the two guide rails to the maintenance (normally ground) level.

  5. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

    Self-priming pumps have to be capable of evacuating air from the pump suction line without any external auxiliary devices. Centrifugal pumps with an internal suction stage such as water-jet pumps or side-channel pumps are also classified as self-priming pumps. [10] Self-Priming centrifugal pumps were invented in 1935.

  6. Pumpjack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumpjack

    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 ...

  7. Titanium sublimation pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_sublimation_pump

    Samples may become contaminated by titanium if they have line-of-sight to the pump. Also, titanium is a very hard material, so titanium film which builds up on the inside of the chamber may form flakes which fall into mechanical components (typically turbomolecular pumps and valves) and damage them. Many chambers containing TSPs also have an ...

  9. Submersible mixer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submersible_mixer

    A submersible mixer is a mechanical device that is used to mix sludge tanks and other liquid volumes. Submersible mixers are often used in sewage treatment plants to keep solids in suspension in the various process tanks and/or sludge holding tanks.
