Installation & Maintenance Manual for the India Mark II Handpump SKAT, RWSN (2008)
The “India Mark II Handpump” was developed in India more than 30 years ago and it is designed for lifting water from deep wells up to 50 m. Strict maintenance of deep-well pumps is very important to keep them operational. Therefore the pump users must be trained and willing to make regular maintenance in a disciplined manner. Spare parts that require regular replacements must be easily available and stored in a sufficient number nearby the pump users.
Good quality is another important factor, which can increase the lifetime of a pump considerably. Therefore all pump components needs to be checked strictly prior to installation. This manual is specially designed for installation personnel and includes therefore additional information in connection with the India Mark II Handpump. For the pump users, a Maintenance Card should be developed, which contains pictures to shows all maintenance interventions in a simple way. To keep this Maintenance Card in good shape for many years, it can be plastic-laminated before given to the pump users.
