subject: A View Of Industrial Equipments: Innovative Means To Make Life Easier [print this page] Intensive researches are going on throughout the world to make the life convenient and economy in rural areas that are facing acute shortage of electricity and water. New kinds of hand pumps are being designed to give the freedom to the residents of rural areas from transporting the water from distant areas. These hand pump designs work well even in the areas, where water level is considerable low or water quality is not so good. Afriwell direct action hand pump is the result of such efforts. On the other side, solar energy is the most dependable alternative energy source. Today, just the minuscule fraction of solar energy is used. Solar powered air dryer and solar parabolic cookerare just few examples that establish that there is no limit for using solar energy to reduce the dependency upon the conventional fuels.
Afriwell direct action hand pump is designed for up to 45 meters operating depth. Its 225 mm stroking length of handle delivers water discharge of 17 litres / minute with 40 strokes; if it is installed with 15 m to 45 m below the ground water level. Rubber centralisers upon riser pipe prevent wear outs. Plunger and foot valve assemblies are made of engineering plastics through injection moulding. Its installation and maintenance doesnt need any special skill; even the village plumber can do it easily. As all the internal components are of non-corrosive nature even for worst water conditions, therefore, investment for Afriwell direct action hand pump always proves a good decision.
Solar powered air dryer are used to dry variety of agricultural produce and food items like fruits, vegetables, grains, spices, coffee, herbs and flowers etc. Its designing concept is perfect blending of solar photovoltaic and solar thermal technologies. High nutritional value conservation is the biggest advantage. These are available in different sizes. Normally, buyers specify their requirements and manufacturers design it accordingly.
