VENTURI PUMP

[2Group]

Hi!
We are Spanish-English translators and we have to translate a handbook about water pumps.
We don't know exactly how an ejector operates in a Venturi pump.
Could anyone help us?

Thank you very much indeed!

An ejector can be called a venturi pump, a venturi pump can be called an ejector or they can be called jet pumps.

The following gives you a brief idea of the concept, they can have air, gas or water as the motive power and can "pump" air, gas or water.
