pneumatic water barrel

A special type of water barrel for removing water from a shaft sinking. By means of a hose connection to an air pump at the surface, a partial vacuum is created inside the barrel and the water lifts the valve and fills the barrel. The hose is then detached and the barrel is hoisted to the surface and discharged.
