Abstract: This paper discusses the importance of a pendulum pump which can be used as a supplementary device for pumping water and is made to replace hand pumps. One important feature of a pump with a pendulum is that the work is alleviated or in simple terms it makes work rather easier when is compared with a traditional hand water pump. It is due to this underlined feature which enables the pendulum pump to be used as an efficient mode in the irrigation of smaller lots, water-wells and can also be used in extinguishing fires even by old people and children. By the use of pendulum based water pumping system we can increase the efficiency of the plant and reduce the effort, cost of production, production time, manpower requirement
