Human Operated Treadle Pump
Treadle pump is a mechanical device which uses human power to draw water from the ground. It is a twin-cylinder reciprocating water pump presently being used by thousands of small/marginal farmers in various parts of eastern U.P, Bihar, Orissa and other places. These are particularly popular in areas where water level is not too low (around 10m or less). Treadle pump is improved by RuTAG IIT Delhi, two types of pumps are developed & modified.
- Improved existing treadle pump.
- Improved treadle pump using locally available plumbing & hand pump parts.
