Choosing the Right Fire Pump: EDJ Fire Pump – ZJBetter

Fire pumps are part of the water supply to a fire sprinkler system and are powered by electricity or diesel. The pump inlet is either connected to a public groundwater supply or to a static water source (e.g. tank, reservoir, lake). This pump provides higher pressure water flow to sprinkler system risers and hose risers.
Our factory can manufacture NFPA20 compliant fire pumps.
Fire pumps can function with electric motors or diesel engines, and if local building codes require electricity independent of the local grid, pumps using electric motors can use the installation of an emergency generator when connected through a transfer switch listed.
