Welcome to www.zmpumpsusa.com - Water Wheel and Pelton Wheel Pumps

These pumps are manufactured in Brazil and ZM Bombas has a wealth of pumping experience with both design and applications.  ZM pumps are manufactured with top-quality cast iron, aluminium and polymers to ensure a longer lifetime and rust resistance. 

These pumps have become successful in this country where there is limited access to and a high cost of electricity. 

Power failures - natural disasters, storms, hurricanes, fires, etc.

    No power = no running water = no flushing toilets = no water to barn or stables

Cost of electricity - now and in the future.

Guilt free conscience - be as "green" as you can be.

Alternative costly energy solutions - generators, fuel, diesel (tractor PTO).

Harness free and natural energy to solve water supply challenges on your farm at the lowest possible cost.

Ideal pump to deliver water with low flow rates

Easy to install with low cost and maintenace

These water wheel pumps are most effective in delivery water over higher elevation and longer distances

Power drive can be either water wheel or pelton wheel

Easy to install and maintain

Water powered pumps for river and stream applications

The pump capability is a factor of the water pressure (vertical head and drive flow) driving the pelton wheel and the volume of water to be delivered to a specific location (height and distance away from the pump)

This is the largest capacity pump that we offer. It has high capacity to deliver larger volumes water over the greatest height and distance.

This is the most versatile pump in the range. High delivery capacity over height and distance. Suitable for most applications.

This is the smallest pump we offer. Very capable of delivering water where the requirements are smaller. 

The weight of the water caught in the water wheel (factor of width and diameter) is what drives the pump. More water flow increases the RPM of the pump which increase the capacity.
