Water is really a "source of life" for a great number of populations. Therefore, the installation of a well equipped simple and solid manual pump can originate a real dynamic development and improvement of the life conditions.
The water source in the village will not only contribute to the welfare of the children by preventing the transmission of different deseases, but will also make the life of the women a lot easier, as they are responsible for the water supply of the family and therefore need to travel several kilometers a day to accomplish their daily task.
The tropic 3 & 7 pumps:
- have a heavy construction to resist rough handling
- are totally enclosed to avoid projections in the well
- require no oiling, or greasing
- are easily driven, even by one person
- the suction valve is easily disassembled when screwed on the piston end
- have tight ball bearings and self-lubricating bushings
- can be adapted to pump water 20 meters high
