Reciprocating pump
Reciprocating pump
Pumps are used to increase the energy level of water by
virtue of which it can be raised to a higher level.
If the pump is started for the first time or after a long period,
air from the suction pipe is sucked during the suction stroke,
while the delivery valve is closed.
