How to Make Reciprocating Pump

Previously we made a centrifugal water pump. In this tutorial, I am going to show you how to make a reciprocating pump. This can be used to pump any type of fluid to get positive displacement. First, watch the below video and get all the PVC fittings we need. There are four components in a reciprocating pump. Piston, cylinder, valve and the crank-motor assembly. How To Make Centrifugal Pump Make reciprocating pump Piston Cylinder Making Valve Making Crank and Motor Assembly Assembling All Components Assemble all the components together. Then connect a 12 V DC source to the Geared motor. Don’t forget to apply lubricant to the piston. Then it will start to pull water from the tank though the valve and pushed out through the other valve. Our reciprocating type pump is ready. This type of pump can be used to pump any type of fluid, not only water. Hope you enjoyed this tutorial. If you have any suggestions to improve this project kindly share them below. DIY STORE

How To Make Centrifugal Pump

It’s been a long time I’m thinking about making a solar-powered water pump for my farm. I already have a 100 w solar panel, which I bought for making my off-grid system. Let’s make a water pump {solar powered) It’s the perfect time to make a solar-powered water pump. Which type of water pump am I gonna make? I thought for a moment. Watched a few YouTube videos, referred to some blogs, and decided to make a Centrifugal pump.  How Centrifugal pumps work? Centrifugal pumps are hydraulically operated machines characterized by their ability to transmit energy to fluids (in particular to liquids) through the work of a field of centrifugal forces. Their main purpose is to transfer fluids through an increase in pressure. Centrifugal pumps have different structures, but their operating principle and fluid dynamic characteristics are always the same.   You may also like: How I Just kick Started my Off-grid Life with This Small Yet Powerful Solar Inverter System ...
