2394: At the location of the Zuidermolen, in 1879 pumping-station Limmen was built. Both, together with the Noordermolen, were built to keep the waterlevel of the Groot-Limmerpolder at the purposed height. Surplus water is pumped into the Alkmaardermeer.
At first the pumping-engine was driven by a steamengine. After 40 years of service the steamengine was replaced by an electric engine.
In 1990 the building was replaced by an automatic from distrance activated polder grind. The 111 years old building looked as if it was on its last legs. So restauration was started and after finishing the pumping-station was turned into a museum.
Op de locatie waar in de 19e eeuw de Zuidermolen heeft gestaan is in 1879 het poldergemaal Limmen gebouwd.
Beiden hadden het doel om samen met de Noordermolen het waterpeil in de Groot-Limmerpolder op de gewenste hoogte te brengen en te houden.
Het overtollige water in deze polder werd door beide installatie´s uitgeslagen in het Alkmaardermeer.
In aanvang werd de pompinstallatie (vijzel) door een stoommachine aangedreven, maar na 40 jaar dienst is de stoommachine vervangen door elektrische aandrijving.
In 1990 is het gebouw en de installatie vervangen door een automatisch werkend en eventueel op afstand aangestuurd poldergemaal.
Het 111 jaar oude gebouw was rijp voor de sloop.
Vanaf dat moment is aan de restauratie van Gemaal 1879 begonnen met het doel om er een museum van te maken.
This is the old pump house on our floodplain. This was taken around 5pm yesterday. By last night the water was only a foot below the door.

The small village of Nenthead in the North Pennines is England’s highest village at 1500 feet. Nenthead was a major centre for lead and silver mining, and in its time had the most productive lead mine in the country.
The London Lead Company was formed by Quakers in 1704, and the directors, in common with other Quaker industrialists, recognised a moral responsibility to their workforce. They built the first purpose-built industrial village in England and laid the foundations for today’s social welfare system. Complete with free lending library and compulsory schooling for all children, the village of Nenthead was born.
The benevolent Quakers built, amongst other things, housing, a school, a reading room, public baths and a wash-house for the miners and their families. Nenthead was the first village in the UK to have electric street lighting from excess power generated by the mines. The foresight of the Company, and its caring attitude towards its employees, brought immense prosperity to one of the most remote and inhospitable regions in the country.
To get lake water up to our house for watering plants, I cobbled together this portable pump station. Wheel it to the water's edge, drop the bucket down into the lake and voila.
Product Description:
The pump is one of perfect series products of vertical pumps developed based on assimilating advanced technology of vertical precipitation pump and scale pump from abroad.
Widely used in metallurgy, mine, chemical industry, power station, municipal water supply and drain, waste water treatment, etc.
Capacity: 25 ~ 5000 m3/h; Head: 13 ~ 120 m; Depth below the wellhead: 2 ~ 50 m; Bore: 80 ~ 700 mm
JB/T443-1992 and Hydraulic Institute A101-00
Fluids: clean water, sewage and other fluids containing up to 15% wt solids of grain size less than 1.5 mm
Stainless driving shaft available.
Protective tube separates the shaft and guide bearing from the pumped medium completely, prolonging the lifetime of guide bearing, shaft and shaft sleeve.
Guide bearing made of combination of new oil-resistant and wear-resistant high polymer material with abrasion resistant rubber, able to stand wear and tear.
Impeller and wetted parts of stainless steel after special surface treatment are more resistant to wear and tear, especially suitable for steelworks to deliver circulating turbid water and for waterworks to pump muddy water from rivers and so on.
In 1862 to USS Cairo gunship was sunk by a mine. It was covered by Mississippi River silt for 100 years, eventually located, and finally salvaged. This is one of the bilge pumps from that boat.
In West India Dock Impounding Station
The Impounding Station was built in 1929 and is used to regulate water levels between the West India and Millwall Docks. The impounding station is the only source of water to West India Docks, outside the tidal run in, and it is in daily use. The Impounding Station is home to three pumps which provide the means for taking water from the River Thames and pumping it into the dock. The pumps are still the original ones installed 85 years ago and are capable of pumping up to 9 cubic metres of water per second. As an illustration of the rate at which the pumps operate, they would fill an Olympic size swimming pool in 9 minutes, and pumps around 4 million tonnes of water each year. The intake pipes draw water from a sump beneath the Impounding Station Building. The outfall pipes pass beneath Marsh Wall Road and their discharge is submerged within the Dock. Trash screens operate whenever the pump is running to protect the pump from debris entering from the river. Debris is discharged into a conveyor belt that empties into a skip. The Canal & River Trust has carried out automation and repairs to the pumps in the Impounding Station in Docklands over the last 12 months. This enables the pump to be operated remotely, although local operation can also be carried out.
