2. Hand pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

   A chain pump is a type of water pump that uses a chain to move water from one place to another. It works on the principle of a continuous loop of chain moving through a series of sprockets, with attached buckets that lift water as the chain passes over the top sprocket and discharge it as the chain reaches the bottom.

3. Water well pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_well_pump

   A water well pump is a pump that is used in extracting water from a water well. Deep well pumps extract groundwater from subterranean aquifers, offering a reliable source of water independent of municipal networks. These pumps, often submersible and powered by electricity, can access water reserves located much deeper than shallow wells ...

4. Pumpjack - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumpjack

   Depending on the size of the pump, it generally produces 5 to 40 litres (1 to 9 imp gal; 1.5 to 10.5 US gal) of liquid at each stroke. Often this is an emulsion of crude oil and water. Pump size is also determined by the depth and weight of the oil to remove, with deeper extraction requiring more power to move the increased weight of the ...

5. Submersible pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submersible_pump

   Submersible pump cables are electrical conductors designed for use in wet ground or under water, with types specialized for pump environmental conditions. [5] [6] [7] A submersible pump cable is a specialized product to be used for a submersible pump in a deep well, or in similarly harsh conditions.

6. Hydraulic ram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_ram

   The device uses the water hammer effect to develop pressure that allows a portion of the input water that powers the pump to be lifted to a point higher than where the water originally started. The hydraulic ram is sometimes used in remote areas, where there is both a source of low-head hydropower and a need for pumping water to a destination ...

7. Pressure tank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_tank

   A simple control system for a water well. Referring to the figure on the left, a submersible water pump is installed in a well. The pressure switch turns the water pump on when it senses a pressure that is less than P lo and turns it off when it senses a pressure greater than P hi. While the pump is on, the pressure tank fills up.
