Central Alberta PFRA Glockemann 320 Oasis

Pump Test Site

Spring fed dam is water source. Excess head pressure required an uphill diversion of water to a header barrel to allow the correct 1.6m drop to pump level

9m drive tube connects to pump. Flow of water through the tube provides the energy to produce the 24 hour pumping action of the Glockemann.


Delivery of 7 litres a minute of water to the trough located 12 meters above and 500 metres away from the pump site.	3 - 150 m coils of 50 mm pipe were laid out to pasture water tank.
