A Schlumpf High-Speed Ram with capacity to draw water up to 350 meters (vertical delivery height): made in 2004.
The Schlumpf-Principle: faster cycle times substantially reduce the workload on each cycle, resulting in less pressure on the valves and longer lifespans.
Every installation is calculated specifically for its particular circumstances. Pipe lengths and widths will be optimized for all key factors, such as flow rate from source, gradient, and vertical delivery height.
Another Schlumpf high-pressure ram with delivery height of 310 meters vertically.
Made in 2003
Water delivery quantity: 42,000 Liters / day
This Schlumpf ram is installed in an alpine dairy farm. To ensure highest water quality for cheese production, a source located 200 meters below the dairy was choosen as the water supply. Water is pumped up 310 meters, to provide a pressure of about 10 bars needed at the dairy farm.
Schlumpf model 5/23: special "open-air design".
Built around 1940.
Schlumpf model “G3”
is designed to deal with large water quantities and high pressure.
The Schlumpf model G3 ram can pump 28,000 liters per day with an elevation gain of 190 meters.
Built in 2002
Another Schlumpf economical ancestor remains in reliable operation even after 80 or 90 years of continuous use.
Every Schlumpf Compact Ram is tested before delivery.

Classic Schlumpf ram Model 3/2000 with 2 1/2" drive pipe, it can convey water up to 150 meters vertically.
Schlumpf makes it possible:
Two parallel operating rams, both are connected to the same supply pipe. These two rams are designed and constructed to share the same source and support two locations in different heights: the small ram here (on top of image) is supplying water to a location at 280 meters altitude, while the big ram (on bottom of image) is conveying the water 80 meters upwards to another side of the valley.
Built in 1998
