This equipment is part of several packages devised by the Oxfam Public Health Engineering Team to help provide a reliable water supply for populations affected by conflict or natural disaster. The equipment is designed to be used with any or all of the following Oxfam water equipment: Water Storage equipment, Water Coagulation and Disinfection equipment, Water Filtration equipment, Water Pumping equipment, Well Digging equipment, and Water Testing Kit. All are designed using available, easily transported equipment which is simple, rapidly assembled, and fully self-contained, to provide an adequate, safe water supply at moderate cost. The principles used in these packages may often be useful in long-term development projects. The Water Pumping equipment is designed to be sufficiently versatile to provide pumps suitable for most emergency situations: for drawing water from surface sources; to provide the raw water for a potable water supply; to pump clean water from one area to another; or for loading and unloading water tankering trucks.
