Hydraulic ram pump for lifting drinking water

A 2-inch hydraulic ram pump designed by me is now lifting more than 20,000 liters of drinking water per day in a rural village in Alaminos, Laguna, Philippines, absolutely fuel-free. The village is located 30 meters above the ram. This is just one of more than 50 hydrams I have sold/installed in various locations in the country, from May 2006 to-date (December 2008).

Some of the air in the air chamber (the tall pipe) mixes with the water delivered through the delivery pipe, so there is a need to replenish this. That is what this little hole is for. It is called the "snifter hole" and functions to suck in a little amount of air after each burst of a small jet of water. The air thus sucked in eventually enters the air chamber.

The source is a mountain spring. As is, the water is clean enough to drink. In this simple village system the spring water flows straight through the pipelines, to the pump, to the delivery pipeline, to the storage tank-- all without filtration and treatment.
