Any Water pump with Auto on/off using Water gun
As bike/car washer motor automatically on/off once we triggered on/off the sprayer in tube but is there anything for water pump 0.5hp mostly,
As most of the guys in our area using water pump and wasting TWICE the amount of water they actually put in their house/vessels due to NO on/off like Bike washers..

is there any please give suggestion to save water

offtopic:
my idea is better use bike/car washer, it off motor when we released trigger and save water still we put tube in next vessel but water flow is very low and high pressure.

Bhai, no offense, but couldn’t understand what you are trying to ask; maybe add a translation in Hindi or whichever language you are comfortable for better clarity…

in simple language :
slum people or middle class people have water pipes outside of house, 1 pipe for 10 house and they use 0.5 hp water pump to pull water (not illegal in our area and allowed)

just like petrol pump trigger on/off like anything for water pump so once we release trigger it off motor and water stop, once we pushed trigger water come out ? as they waste twice the amount of water during changing water tube to other vessel or pot.

I have similar requirements. I searched several ways to handle this situation. I even tried to think several jugaad ways to handle this foolproof, but gave up.

How about you put a T just before the nozzle, so when u shut the nozzle off and assuming the pump still running, the flow goes through T to a pipe or pressure relief valve and then finally to a tank

Op may consider raising funds to setup some kind of water storage with a tap.

This is only viable solution, motor on/off with each vessel will surely damage motor and eventually more expensive than water wasted
One can set up very small 100 ltr tank even at bare minimum height with auto start system like in overhead tanks so motor starts when water level goes below 20ltr

something like above but in AC power and more powerful 0.5hp motor, have to ask local motor supplier, i am sure coimbatore guys must have solution for this as they supply all over india.

The first video is based on air compressor, and the second is a small diy/hobby project. In your actual scenario, you will be dealing with an induction motor.

Some take aways:

  1. Life of motor drastically comes down with frequent on/off.
  2. More than that will be the power bill. Induction motors take huge amount of power every time they start.
  3. Lastly, if you go for a simple on and off control near the water gun, it is going to be a safety affair since high voltage and water doesn’t synch well

Do keep us posted if you happen to come up with any solution

As above product used where shower pressure is low or jet shower is installed or rain shower installed, so once switched of the shower tap, this controller automatically switch off motor
