mechanical pump
Pressure-driven liquid displacer
A mechanical pump is a device that moves fluids or gases through physical action—pistons, gears, diaphragms, or rotating impellers that create pressure differentials.
Distinguished from pumps driven by gravity, capillary action, or electromagnetic forces.
The well uses a mechanical pump to bring water to the surface.
