New reprint 1950s RIFE Hydraulic WATER RAMS Instructions

Description: Manual of Information on Rife Hydraulic Water Rams, originally published by Rife Ram and Pump Works, Waynesboro, Va., 1950s. Re-printed by H.S. Equipment Publications, Gettysburg, Penn., 1990s. 7 x 10 paperback, 16 pages. Please note that this is a photoduplicated reproduction, not an original . The accompanying images were scanned from a reprint, not the original. According to a history by the Rife Hydraulic Engine Mfg. Co. Inc. of Nanticoke, Penn., the first workable water ram was invented in France in 1797 by Joseph de Montgolfier, who is better known for the invention, with his brother, and first flight, of the hot air balloon in 1783. But it was not until the 1840s that the water ram was introduced to the U.S. In 1879, The People's Cyclopedia included the hydraulic ram in a list of the 55 most important inventions in the history of mankind. The Cyclopedia defined the hydraulic ram as: "A simple and conveniently applied mechanism by which the weight of falling water can be made available for raising a portion of itself to a considerable height." The Ram Company, of Lowesville, Virginia, which markets and sells the Fleming Hydro-Ram developed in 1980, notes that For more than 100 years rams were major movers of water to homes, farms, industries, railroads and towns. They contributed to improved crop production, introduction of extensive landscaping and gardening, and, perhaps most importantly, to health and sanitation. But with the advent of electrical pumps, interest in the hydraulic rams became dormant. Ram pumps were allowed to rust in the stream until expensive parts, fossil fuel shortages, and environmental concerns brought back to the public's mind the need for a pump that is inexpensive, requires almost no repairs or maintenance, is self-acting, and which can raise water to a considerable height vertically. The public began searching for a ram it could readily afford, pick up easily and move if necessary. In 1885, the Rife Hydraulic Engine Manufacturing Company was incorporated. The new company has a sales office in New York City, but its foundry and manufactory was in Waynesboro, Virginia. In 1945, Rife built a new manufacturing facility in Andover, New Jersey, but it was not until 1961 that Rife’s offices in New York City were moved to Millburn, New Jersey. In 1984, the company relocated to Norristown, Pennsylvania, but five years later manufacturing operations were moved to Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The most reason expansion was the building of new facilities in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania. Today, Rife Hydraulic Engine Mfg. Co. Inc. is still a going concern.
