    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

    Hand-powered force pump, with an air chamber to smooth out variations in flow rate. Hand pumps are manually operated pumps; they use human power and mechanical advantage to move fluids or air from one place to another. They are widely used in every country in the world for a variety of industrial, marine, irrigation and leisure activities.

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

    It is often designed to be hand-operated by a diver. [2] Airlift pumps are used by water utilities, farmers and others to extract water from deep wells. In such cases the pipes can be 30, 60 or more meters deep underground. Airlift pumps are governed by the physics of two-phase flow.

  4. Sump pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sump_pump

    Sump pumps are used where basement flooding may otherwise happen, and to solve dampness where the water table is near or above the foundation of a structure. Sump pumps send water away from a location to any place where it is no longer problematic, such as a municipal storm drain, a dry well, or simply an open-air site downhill from the building (sometimes called "pumping to daylight").

  5. 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

  7. 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 ...
