The GP210 is a hand-operated suction type water pump that canlift water approximately 25 feet (7.6 meters) at sea level from the water source to the pump at a rate of up to 17 US gallons (64.35 liters)per minute. The momentum of the swinging pendulum provides agravity-assisted advantage that allows the operator to work the pumpwith at least five-times less fatigue than any other hand-operated pump.This translates into the operators ability to pump by hand up to 1,000 US gallons (3785 liters) of water per hour with very little fatigue.
Well suited for irrigation, the GP210 is available on a stationary A-Frame, a mobile traileror as a stand-alone unit to be installed on your own stanchion. The Pendulum on the GP210weighs just 40 lbs. and is 48 inches long. A selector pin on the axle changes the length ofthe linear stroke to change the flow rate/pressure of the water being pumped. This allows the operator to pump pressurized water, up to 80 psi. with nearly the same effort requiredto maintain the swinging of the pendulum with no water pressure. There is No other hand-operated pump in existence today that can pump water at these volumes or pressure.

The GP210 Water Treatment System
An optional water filtration system, manufactured by Hanish Water,is available for producing safe-drinking water that meets or exceedsWorld Health Organization standards. This system filters any freshwater source down to sub-micron levels to virtually eliminate all contaminants including virus, bacteria and cysts. When combined with the GP210, the complete system becomes a very powerful hand-operated surface water treatment system using a 4-stage filtration process.
Stage one keeps debris from harming the pump by using a 78 micron screen housedin a protective cage that is easy to clean.Stage two uses industrial-grade back-washable filters containing Z-pack, a third-generation media thatremoves suspended contaminants down to 3-5 micron.Stage three uses a 1 micron replaceable filter.Stage four uses the Hanish Water Bioguard/Carbon/Bioguard filter combination. This filters your waterat the sub-micron level to produce safe drinking-water.
A field test of the GEC Water Treatment System performed on the Cuyahoga river inCuyahoga Falls, Ohio reduced the total coliform value of MPN 13,500/100ml to 0/100mland the turbidity level from 9 to 0 NTU at 16 gpm.
The GP210 in Haiti
In the spring of 2010, GEC donated a GP210 outfitted with a waterfiltration system to help the earthquake victims in Haiti. It easilyproduced daily drinking-water for around 4,000 people with onlythree hours of operation a day. When the filter systems were bypassed,the GP210 quickly pumped water out of a contaminated cistern.
Electric Motor Option for the GP210
Research and development continues with a two-story tall 18,000 lbs. Feltenberger Pendulum. This computer-controlled machine has demonstrated dramatic results making GEC confident it will achieve 80+% efficiency in the generation of electricity. Current coal-fired power plants only achieve 30-35% efficiencies.
A bio-fuel engine is under development to replace and provide an increased efficiency overthe compressed air input system currently used to drive the pendulum. The primary purpose of these machines is producing electricity, however they can be directly applied to performing other tasks such as pumping large amounts of fresh wateror seawater, or moving oil through pipelines. In every case, these machines are intendedto require about one-half the fuel that would normally be used without the gravity assistthat GEC’s technology employs.Besides lowering the carbon footprint by reducing the fuel consumption, this simple designwill require less capital to build and less maintenance compared to current power plants, making it a viable alternative to steam turbine technology for base load power requirements.Additionally, the pendulum technology can be constructed anywhere, even under-ground andout-of-sight.

Commercial Electricity Generation Prototype
An optional 1hp electric motor is available for the GP210 to allow hands-free operationof the water pump in areas where electricity is available. In the following video, you’llsee this option in action, and you’ll also see how to quickly switch the configuration backto hand-operation via the GP210 pendulum.
