1.2 Pump history

Pump history dates back as far back as when fire piston was invented in Southeast Asia' (Europe, in early 1800): For starting fires. The fire piston preceded match which has its j origin from southeast Asia.

Romans in Britain (ca. 409) produced a two-barreled reciprocating pump cut from a block of wood, lined with sheet lead. However, rotary pumps were too difficult to make I until after 16th century (as described by Ramelli in 1588 [5]). Bellow pumps were first! demonstrated in 1511, and bucket pumps for water, driven by waterwheels or animal gears, were introduced in Saxon mines ca. 1540.

London Bridge Waterworks was established in 1582 using undershot tide-mill pumps. | Other important events in pump development and usage since 1600 are chronologically listed below [6]:
