Hydraulic Ram Pump
• The ram pump is not a normal mechanically-operated pump.
• This changes the pump’s cycle times.
• A supply pipe fitted with an inner and outer valve.
• An air vessel to reduce hydraulic shock.
• The outer valve has a weight platform, for loading with the weights provided.
• A column of water in the supply pipe from a header tank, moving at low velocity, is similar to a ‘plunger’.
• The energy in the plunger forces water from the supply into a delivery pipe.
• This exchanges the momentum of a large amount of water into energy that pumps a smaller amount of water up a hill or gradient.
• Header tank
• Pump and the interconnecting pipe work.
• The header tank mounts to a suitable wall.
