Function: The primary function of a water pump is to create pressure and flow to move water. They draw water from a water source, such as a well, a lake, or a reservoir, and deliver it to a desired location, such as a building, a field, or a storage tank.
Types of Water Pumps: There are different types of water pumps available, and the selection depends on the specific requirements of the application. Some common types include:
Centrifugal Pumps: These pumps use an impeller to create centrifugal force, pushing water radially outward. They are widely used due to their simplicity, efficiency, and versatility.
Submersible Pumps: These pumps are designed to be submerged in water. They are commonly used for deep wells, sump pits, and other applications where the pump needs to be underwater.
Jet Pumps: Jet pumps utilize a combination of centrifugal force and suction to draw water. They are often used in shallow wells or applications with a limited water supply.
