If you've found your way to this article, you are likely trying to build your first ornithopter in Dune Awakening and realised that you need this unusual resource, Industrial Pump, in order to craft the wings.
Industrial Pumps are pretty niche in their application, only really being used for crafting flying vehicle wings and a couple of other utility items. They are also difficult to obtain, only really being found reliably in one heavily guarded location.
Farming Industrial Pumps in Sentinel City
Sentinel City is a heavily guarded location in the Eastern Shield Wall area of the game. See the image below for the exact location with reference to the wider game map.
Sentinel City is the only place in Dune Awakening where you can find and farm Industrial Pumps. You will notice that the item description even referring to the Sandflies, the denizens of this 'City'.
Pro Tip: As with any other in-and-out chest-grab trips, leave your vehicle outside the entrance so if you die (and the chances of this are high), you can respawn right at your vehicle and run back in to grab your stuff.
There are a bunch of chests scattered throughout Sentinel City but most of them are located quite deep, which does make this even more challenging.
As shown in the image above, it's also a great place to grab some Heavy Calibre Compressors and Light Calibre Compressors which are essential components in crafting a lot of Dune Awakening's more powerful weapons.
Pro Tip: If you make it all the way to the back of the base you'll find a 2 or 3-tiered structure and at the top you will find a locked room. Off of the locked room there is another room where you can grab the identification band. Run back into the locked room and you will find some very powerful loot including Spice-infused Aluminum Dust.
Buying Industrial Pumps In Dune Awakening
If you need a whole bunch of Industrial Pumps and don't want to wait for the Chests to respawn in Sentinel City, or if you just have a tonne of Solari and want to get them the easy way, you can just buy them from a Vendor.
The Merchant (Zoe) at the Crossroads will sell you up to 15 Industrial Pumps per stock cycle but they are pretty hefty at 2,500 Solari per piece.
