The Ecologics Treadle Water Pump has been meticulously tested to ensure hassle free functionality. These tests are designed keeping in mind the life of the moving components that include the pedals and diaphragm. The tests ensure an operational life exceeding 9 million cycles and diaphragm life beyond 5 million cycles (1 cycle = 1 Litre approximately).

The Ecologics Step Action Pump is designed to amplify the mechanical action involved in pumping water. This makes pump operation easy, even for those with less body mass. During the lower two thirds of the pump's lift range, Ecologics Tradle Pump can deliver between 5000 to 6000 Litres per hour from one operator.

Ecologics compiled performance data under onsite conditions pumping at a sustainable rate, through a 100 m length of 38 mm ID polythene hose pipe.

If you are looking for much more lift and lateral delivery, then these pumps can be linked in series for indefinite extension.

These Ecologics high capacity step action water pumps are designed for fresh water use. However, if you are looking for using these in salt water or for potable water, then we can offer the same in stainless steel.

Ecologics proudly stands by it's product and is confident that there is currently no portable manually powered water pump available which approaches the performance and delivery capabilities of the Ecologics high capacity step action water pump.
