However, the India Mark II Extra Deep pump can go up to 80 meters, so is considered to be a deep pump. They are all listed here, as they have similar design and maintenance needs.

The India Mark II Pump is a robust conventional lever action handpump and is subject to Indian Standard IS 9301.. It is designed for heavy-duty use, serving communities of 300 persons. The maximum recommended lift is 50 m. The India Mark II is a public domain pump defined by Indian Standards and RWSN specifications. This pump has a pump head, pump stand and a handle of galvanised steel. This pump is not corrosion resistant and should not be used in areas with aggressive water ( pH value < 6.5).

The India Mark II Extra Deep well Pump is designed for lifting water from extra deep water sources and is therefore strongly built. The maximal lift recommended is 80 m.  The India Mark II Extra Deep well Pump is a conventional lever action handpump and is subject to Indian Standard IS 15500 or to the RWSN Handpump Specification, Rev. 2-2007. The down-hole components exist of a brass lined cast iron cylinder India Mark II Extra Deep well pump is designed for lifting water from extra deep water sources and the brass plunger has a triple cup seal of Nitrile rubberis therefore strongly built. The maximal lift recommended is 80 m. Pump head, handle, water tank, pump stand and pump rods are made of galvanised steel, rising main is of Ø 32 mm (1 ¼”) galvanised GI pipe , pump cylinder cast iron / brass, plunger and the pumprods are foot valve of galvanised steel brass. This pump is not corrosion resistant and should not be used in areas with M12 connectorsaggressive water (pH value < 6.5).

The installation of the India Mark II Extra Deep well Pump pump need area mechanics that have attended special training and are well equipped with lifting tackle and comprehensive installation tools.

==Manuals, videos==India Mark lll pump====All “above ground components” have a potential for local manufacturing, the other parts need a high degree of quality control to ensure a reliable operation. The cost of the tooling requirement is substantial and therefore the number of manufacturers will be limited. The installation of the India Mark III Pump needs well-trained area mechanics with lifting tackle and links==comprehensive tool kit. Cylinder settings of more than 20 m are very heavy to handle.  * Do it yourself This pump has an improved "Community Management Potential” compared to the India Mark ll II, because the “open top cylinder” makes simpler maintenancepossible with less tools involved. ===Field experiences===<br>{|style="border: 2px solid #e0e0e0; width: 20%; text-align: justify; background-color: #e9f5fd;" cellpadding="2"<!--rsr logo here-->|- style="vertical-align: top"|[[Image:akvorsr logo_lite.png|center|60px|link=http://wwwakvo.cleanorg/products/rsr/]]<!--project blocks here--water>|-forstyle="vertical-laymenalign: bottom"|[[Image:project 1349.comjpg |thumb|center|140px|<font size="2"><center>[http:/support-files/idrcindiamarkiirsr.pdf IDRC India Mark II Manualakvo.org/project/1349/ RSR Project 1349] International Development Research Centre (IDRC)<br> Safe water for Wajir</center></font>|link=http://rsr. akvo.org/project/1349/ ]] |}
