Pump wiki

Pump types

Diesel pump

A diesel pump is a self-propelled pumping unit that uses a diesel engine as its driving force. It is ideal for Bypass pumping, drainage and emergency situations where there is no access to power. RH Pumper diesel pumps are built for high reliability and long service life – even in tough conditions.

Bilge pump

A bilge pump is a drainage pump that can move water from a flooded or water-filled area to a drain or other collection device. It is often used for basement flooding, construction projects, tank overflows or when emptying basins. The pump is usually electrically driven (230V or 400V), but is also available as petrol or diesel driven for areas without power supply.

Electric pump

An electric pump is an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly pumping unit that uses electricity as its driving force. It is ideal for locations with access to power and for applications where noise, emissions and maintenance need to be minimized. Electric pumps are suitable for both temporary and permanent installations.

Motor pump

A motor pump is a pumping unit powered by an internal combustion engine – usually diesel or gasoline. It is built for high performance and mobility and operates independently of a power supply. Motor pumps are ideal for bypass pumping, drainage and emergency situations where quick action is essential.

Self-priming pump

A self-priming pump is a pump that can start its operation without prior filling of liquid in the suction hose.

Rust-free pumps

Stainless steel pumps are designed to withstand aggressive fluids, humid environments and high hygiene requirements. They are ideal for industry, the wastewater sector and anywhere else where ordinary materials cannot withstand the strain. A stainless steel pump is robust, reliable and durable – even in extreme conditions.

Submersible pump

A submersible pump is a compact and versatile pump that is placed directly into the liquid. It is ideal for drainage, sewage and flooding applications where there is a need for fast and efficient removal of liquid. Submersible pumps are available in many variants and are widely used in construction, industry and municipal installations.

Wastewater pump

A wastewater pump is designed to efficiently transport unclean water with solid particles and organic matter. This makes it an indispensable part of many drainage systems and temporary bypass pumping projects. With a focus on reliability and flexibility, sewage pumps are widely used in municipal, industrial and construction site projects.

Components

Level meter

A level gauge is used to detect and monitor the liquid level in tanks, wells, basins and other containers. In pumping systems, the level gauge is essential to control pump operation, avoid overflows and ensure optimal performance. It provides both reliability and automation.

Level rocker

A level switch is a simple but effective component for controlling pumps. It senses the liquid level in tanks, wells or basins and activates the pump when the level reaches a certain point. The level switch is ideal for both permanent and temporary installations where a cheap, reliable and maintenance-free solution is required.

Services and benefits

Bypass pumping

Bypass pumping is used to temporarily divert fluid – typically wastewater or rainwater – during maintenance, repair or replacement of existing pipe systems. It’s a critical part of operations during sewer renovation, pipeline work and emergencies where flow must not be interrupted.

Flushing

Flushing is a method of cleaning and maintaining pipes, lines and hoses by passing large volumes of liquid through at high flow rates. This ensures that deposits, sludge, air pockets and dirt are effectively removed and the system can function optimally. RH Pumper offers both flushing as a service and equipment to perform it yourself.

Pump repair

Repairing pumps is a necessary part of maintenance and operations. Whether it’s a burnt motor, leaking seals or reduced performance, fast and correct repair is essential to minimize downtime and ensure continuous operation. RH Pumper offers professional troubleshooting, service and repair – both on-site and in our own workshop.

SRO (Control, Regulation and Monitoring)

SRO (Control, Regulation and Monitoring) is a comprehensive solution that ensures intelligent and automated operation of pump installations. With SRO, you can monitor levels, regulate flow and receive real-time alarms – all to ensure optimal reliability and minimal manual effort.

Pressure and suction transmissions

Bends

Bends are essential components in any pump installation where pipes or hoses need to change direction. They are used to create safe and tight turns in pressure and suction systems, without compromising flow or reliability. Bends ensure flexible and efficient hose or pipe routing – both temporarily and permanently.

Portals

Portals are used to guide suction and pressure lines safely over roads, paths or other passages. They protect both the installation and the surroundings and ensure that bypass pumpings can take place without disturbing traffic, access or pedestrians. Gantries are an important part of any professional overpumping solution.

Pressure transmission

Pressure transmission is the movement of pressurized fluid through hoses or pipes – typically from a pump to a discharge point. It is a key part of bypass pumping, drainage and temporary pumping installations. The right pressure transmission ensures both stable operation and less downtime.

Suction line

A suction line is the hose or pipe that carries the fluid from source to pump. It must be robust, leak-proof and correctly sized to ensure efficient and trouble-free operation. The suction line is key in both bypass pumpings and stationary installations – and the right choice can be the difference between good and bad performance.
