The Australian made and designed original Billabong Hydraulic Water Ram (BBHWR) was developed in 1855 (i.e. some 158 years ago) and has been significantly improved over the years. It is a field proven Water Ram operating in Australia and the Pacific Basin, with thousands of satisfied end users.

The BBHWRs operating mechanism relies on harvesting kinetic energy from water supplied under fall conditions to the unit. The operation does not rely on any external source of fuel (electricity, petrol, diesel, gas, steam etc.), and only uses the harvested kinetic energy of water flowing into the Ram for the water transfer / pumping operation. The BBHWRs full specification and performance capabilities—is available upon request.
