Yes, you read that correctly. This is entirely feasible, and the best part is that you can even make it yourself at home. It is commonly referred to as the Hydraulic Ram Pump. The hydraulic ram is most commonly utilized in isolated places when there is both a source of low-head hydro-power and a need to pump water to a higher elevation than the source. The ram is frequently effective in this case since it requires no external source of power other than the kinetic energy of flowing water.
In this article we are going to give the basics information about the pump and how you can use it in water purification systems or in any application. Although this water pump is insufficiently strong to be utilized in a RO system, it might be used to draw water closer to a holding tank before per-treatment of feed water in a RO system. You may be able to pump enormous volumes of water using this pump, depending on its size.
There are several videos on YouTube that illustrate various ways to build the Hydraulic Ram Pump, but for the greatest performance, we recommend purchasing a fully working pump or a pre built one that is ready to plug in. This saves you time and ensures you after-sales assistance if there are any problems with the pump.
Hydraulic rams consist of several components:
• Cylinder
• Piston
• Neck Gland
• Rod
• Cylinder Ports
• End Caps
