Pump Types

There are generally two types of water pumps. Different in design and application they each basically serve the same purpose, which is to move water from point A to point B.

The first type of pump is the centrifugal design. This type uses a rotating impeller to draw water into the pump and pressurize the discharge flow. Common types include standard above ground and submersible models.

House Water Filtration

Water filtration for household use is commonly installed when rainwater tanks are in use or the supply water quality is not quite satisfactory. Sediment material and colour in the water from downpipes may affect the taste and odour of the water and can be filtered using a simple inline filter system between rainwater tank pump and the house. Most council supply water is purified for human consumption (drinking water) but water purification may also be designed for a variety of other purposes, including meeting the requirements of medical, pharmacology, chemical and industrial applications.

Water Purification

Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals, materials, and biological contaminants from raw water. The goal is to produce water fit for a specific purpose. Most water is purified for human consumption (drinking water) but water purification may also be designed for a variety of other purposes, including meeting the requirements of medical, pharmacology, chemical and industrial applications.

Sprinkler Types

Sprinklers that spray in a fixed pattern are generally called sprays or spray heads. Sprays are not usually designed to operate at pressures above 30 lbf/in² (200 kPa)(30psi "Pounds per square inch"), due to misting problems that may develop.

Higher pressure sprinklers that rotate around themselves are driven by a ball drive, gear drive, or impact mechanism (impact sprinklers). These can be designed to rotate in a full or partial circle.

Ultra Violet Filtration

UV systems are designed to protect potable drinking water sources from occasional intrusion of microbiological contamination. High doses of ultra violet light energy at a wavelength of 254 nanometers controls microbes by disabling their reproductive process. This is a positive alternative to using environmentally harmful chemicals.

Pipes and Fittings

There are many different types of pipes and fittings available. It is important to select the correct pipe and fittings to suit the installation requirements.

The pipe/fittings and pressure ratings determine how and where items should be used. Some applications require pressure rated items, such as domestic and commercial/industrial installations.

Home irrigation and gardening solutions may only require low-density pipes and fittings installed.

Sprinkler Types

Sprinklers that spray in a fixed pattern are generally called sprays or spray heads. Sprays are not usually designed to operate at pressures above 30 lbf/in² (200 kPa)(30psi "Pounds per square inch"), due to misting problems that may develop.

Higher pressure sprinklers that rotate around themselves are driven by a ball drive, gear drive, or impact mechanism (impact sprinklers). These can be designed to rotate in a full or partial circle.

Some sprinklers are also known as Floppy Sprinklers, Spray Pop-ups, pulsating sprinklers due to their water stream and revolutionary new concept having no rotating or moving parts.

Rainguns are similar to impact sprinklers, except that they generally operate at very high pressures of 40 to 130 lbf/in² (275 to 900 kPa) and flows of 50 to 1200 US gal/min (3 to 76 L/s), usually with nozzle diameters in the range of 0.5 to 1.9 inches (10 to 50 mm). In addition to irrigation, guns are used for industrial applications such as dust suppression and logging.

Many irrigation sprinklers are buried in the ground along with their supporting plumbing, but above ground and moving sprinklers are also common. Most irrigation sprinklers are functioned through electric and hydraulic technology and are grouped together in zones that can be collectively turned on and off by actuating solenoid-controlled valves.
