The story of Cornell starts in 1946 when five people working at Pacific Pump Company decided to head out on their own.
Having a complete service department, they became familiar with what most of the common pump failures were. Many motor failures came from pressure spikes during operation, overloading capacity and water related failures of the pump end motor bearings. With many parts in stock and facilities to fabricate the rest, Cornell would service any model of pump.
The Cornell team asked themselves, āCan we do better?ā In 1949 the āRain-O-Flowā irrigation pumps were designed and manufactured to be irrigation specific models with features that we felt would solve many problems that we were seeing in the repair shop.
Today, Cornell Pump is an industry leader in centrifugal pumps for Agriculture, Industrial, Mining, Municipal, Oil/Gas, and Rental applications.
