Pumps

Pumps are machines used for the pumping of water. Pumps can be used for pumping of water from various sources of water like boreholes, wells and dams etc.

A water pump is an equipment or machine used for the pumping of water. It can also be defined as a device used to move water from one point to the other.

Pumps can be used to pump water for irrigation work. They can also be used for flood management. Water pumps can also be used for the supply of water in domestic and industrial applications.

Most of the water pumps we stock are powered by electricity, petrol and diesel. Our pumps can also be used to pump other types of liquids like liquid chemicals, petroleum products and liquid food products.

The following are the types of water pumps we stock:

Surface pumps: These are pumps used for the pumping of water from surface water reservoirs. These pumps are commonly used for irrigation.

Centrifugal pumps – These pumps pump water from one place to the other using impellers. They are mainly used for irrigation, water supply, and pressure boosting.

Deep well pumps – This type of water pump is used for pumping water out of deep water wells like boreholes.

Submersible pumps – These pumps are also used to pump water from deep water wells like boreholes. They are usually submerged in water for them to work efficiently.

Diaphragm pumps – These water pumps pump water with the use of diaphragm. They are mostly used to pump highly corrosion probe liquids like chemicals.

Gear pumps – These pumps use gears to pump water and liquid. They are mostly used to pump liquid like petroleum products.

The uses and benefits of pumps include the following:

Pumps can be used for irrigation. They are one of the main equipment used for irrigation of crops.

Pumps can be used to supply water for domestic use. Human and animals can have access to portable water with the aid of water pumps.

Water pumps can be used for flood management. Excess water can be removed with the aid of pumps.

Water pumps can be used in industrial settings for the transfer of liquids in industries and factories.

Water pumps can be used for aquaculture. Water and oxygen can be supplied to farmed fishes with the use of pumps.

Swimming pools also need water pumps as they are used to feed the pools with water.

Water pumps are important for firefighting and fire control.
