FIGURE OF MERITS
Power: manual In rural areas there is a shortage of electricity supply and there are very few places where we can get power sources like wind energy, sufficient flowing energy and sufficient area for power source like cattle driven. Also the mechanism for cattle driven power source and setup of solar power supply is very expensive and difficult to maintain. Therefore manual power source is a suitable option. Storage type Feedback is always preferred over non feedback to save time and avoid water wastage. Water source: ground water As we are mainly focusing up on domestic purpose therefore ground water is most likely is to be selected because the flowing water and stagnant surface water are generally dirty and directly accessible Cylinder type: Single acting As the manual power source is selected therefore double acting is rejected because it needs more torque to operate in optimum speed. Pumping: reciprocating Though centrifugal pump supplies continuous water it is still not required because it requires high speed and power to operate. Valves: pressure driven Since the utility rating for no valve is highest from the cost, mechanism and complication point of view. Still the pressure driven valve is selected simply because a reciprocating pump cannot work without valves. Cam valves are not selected due to its complex mechanism. Feedback: ballast Easy to maintain, easy to repair, simple, no power requirement Input mechanism: stepper Cycling motion operated by foot which is much easier than operating through hands and no external power requirement.
