__NOTOC__
The Rower pump was developed as a simple manually operated pump for small scale irrigation. The Rower Pump is a suction pump in which the piston is directly activated. A surge chamber (an air vessel just downstream of the foot valve, makes the pumping operation smoother). It is a simple and reliable pump with very few moving parts thus wear is reduced.
