Airlift Wind-Powered Water Pumps Quad
Airlift pumps use compressed air to lift water into a storage tank. Compressed air is delivered by a one, two, or four cylinder air compressor driven by a wind turbine with tempered aluminum blades of 7.3-feet, 10-feet, or 11-feet diameter, depending on the compressor chosen. The variable pitch blades startup with winds of 4-6 mph, with optimum performance at 10-15 mph. In high wind conditions the turbine will automatically turn out of the wind, then return as wind speed decreases. Yearly maintenance is a simple oil change and intake filter cleaning. The turbine mounts on a 2.5ö steel pipe tower. The wind turbine can be hundreds of feet from the well. Air bubbles lift the water. Lifts up to 300-feet and 1 to 20 gpm are possible. An appropriately-sized air injection chamber and 200-ft. of air line are included with each pump. Pumped water can be moved up to 500-ft. horizontally, but the delivery line must slope upwards at least slightly.
