<strong>Hydraulic</strong> Ram Pump System Design <strong>and</strong> ApplicationFig. 6 RDTAC's Hyd<strong>ram</strong> installed At Adami-TuluManufacturing - The hydraulic <strong>ram</strong> pump parts were manufactured in the RDTAC workshop,RADEL Foundry Pvt. Ltd. Company, Addis Tyre Enterprise <strong>and</strong> Gelan-Metal Products Factory.RADEL made all the casting parts. Addis Tyre Enterprise has made all rubber parts by mouldsmanufactured in RDTAC. Gelan Metal Products Factory performed electro-galvanization on bolts,studs <strong>and</strong> nuts. All the machining <strong>and</strong> welding of the hydraulic <strong>ram</strong> pump parts were made in RDTAC.Installation - The hydraulic <strong>ram</strong> pump was installed in the pump house of Adami-Tulu hydraulic <strong>ram</strong>pump with the permission of the Abernosa Ranch (see Fig. 6). Existing civil work such as diversioncanal, drive tank <strong>and</strong> pump house at Adami-Tulu was used for the project. This has resulted inconsiderable financial, time <strong>and</strong> labor saving. A delivery pipe of 2" was installed for 0.8 km from thepump house to a reservoir tank which is located in Dodicha Woreda (Oromia Region, Arsi Zone).Performance - By now, the hydraulic <strong>ram</strong> pump successfully provides water for drinking <strong>and</strong>backyard irrigation.
