Industrial/Environmental
Simple Pump™ Applications
 Simple Pump™ is a hand water pump made of CNC-machined stainless steel. Use this hand pump to safely move contaminated water, highly impacted ground water, water containing trace elements and other debris.
Because of the simple, yet extremely durable design, Simple Pump™ is ideal for monitoring wells, ground water monitoring, environmental dewatering wells, sampling and environmental sampling wells. Simple Pump™ is also an economical choice for desalinization, irrigation, and dewatering applications.
Efficient Pumping Capabilities
 Simple Pump™ 100 industrial version in a de-watering application. Works smoothly even when installed at an angle and sustaining -27°C temperatures. |
Simple Pump™ operates using common leverage principles. It provides a leverage ratio of 3.3:1. The unique lever arm pump only takes 10 lbs. of force to pump up to 5 gallons per minute from 100' - even uphill. At 200 feet, it takes approximately 13 pounds of force per stroke.

Configure Simple Pump™ to Your Use
 12-volt gearmotor attachment: Gearmotor can be powered by a solar panel or battery. In this mode, Simple Pump™ can pump up to 2 gallons per minute at depths up to 200 feet. Click here for more gearmotor modification options.
Well caps: available in 2", 4", 5", 6" and 7/8" diameters. Click here for well cap modifications.
Sucker rods: Standard sucker rods are manufactured to a 108" length. Rods also available in 54" and 27" lengths.
Drop pipe: Kit comes standard with a 1/16" diameter weep drilled into the sidewall of the PVC pipe, 48" below the top. In no-frost installations, the weep hole can be deleted at no charge.
Simple Pump™ is... Cost-effective
| Features: |
Benefits: |
| Motor mounted above the well |
Don't need explosive-proof hardware because the 12 volt DC motor is surface mounted - not in the pit with explosive gases. |
| Simple design with minimal components |
Greatly reduces parts wear and tear so you avoid costly downtime. |
| Aerospace-quality machining |
Easy installation and low maintenance costs. |
| Low-profile setting |
In just 5 minutes, lever arm and linkage removes to deter vandals. In low-profile mode, pump stands only 5 inches above the ground. |
| Small diameter |
Easily installs in as small as a 2" well casing. |
