2. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

   Also, the dimensions of the separating chamber are relatively large. For these reasons this solution is only adopted for small pumps, e.g. garden pumps. More frequently used types of self-priming pumps are side-channel and water-ring pumps. Another type of self-priming pump is a centrifugal pump with two casing chambers and an open impeller.

3. 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 ...

4. Axial-flow pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial-flow_pump

   An axial-flow pump for industrial use. An axial-flow pump, or AFP, is a common type of pump that essentially consists of a propeller (an axial impeller) in a pipe.The propeller can be driven directly by a sealed motor in the pipe or by electric motor or petrol/diesel engines mounted to the pipe from the outside or by a right-angle drive shaft that pierces the pipe.

5. Hand pump - Wikipedia

   Irrigation is under way by pump-enabled extraction directly from the Gumti, seen in the background, in Comilla, Bangladesh. One sort of pump once common worldwide was a hand-powered water pump, or 'pitcher pump'. It was commonly installed over community water wells in the days before piped water supplies.

6. Water pumping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_pumping

   The spiral pump, as many low lift pumps, is commonly used for irrigation purposes and for drainage of lands. Based on the same principle as the Archimedean screw, it consists of a rotating tube or plane (screw) to move a liquid. Unlike the Archimedean screw, it can pump while horizontal. The Archimedean screw must be tilted at an angle.

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 surface.
