__NOTOC__<small-title />

This category includes short small diameter cylindrical screens (slotted or perforated pipes) that are inserted into unconsolidated sediments using water pressure or physical force, usually vertically or obliquely. Digging is not needed in this case.

Extracting water can be done with handpump or mechanical pump. Handpump cylinder will need to physically be able to fit inside the screen that has been installed.
