The fire pump is usually equipped with a local control cabinet. The control cabinet does not have a transfer control switch for automatic and manual conversion, but the automatic control loop leaves start and stop contacts, which are connected to the fire alarm system control module. In addition, according to the relevant regulations, the system using the bus linkage control should also be set in the fire control room with buttons that can directly start and stop the pump. When the fire alarm system receives the signal of the fire hydrant start pump button, the control module automatically starts the fire pump and collects its feedback signal.

Fire pumps and jockey pumps support the fire safety of green buildings by aligning with sustainability goals while ensuring robust fire protection. In green buildings, these pumps can be powered by renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind, to reduce reliance on the grid and decrease carbon footprints. High-efficiency pumps with variable frequency drives (VFDs) can optimize energy use, adjusting output to match demand and further enhancing sustainability. Additionally, fire pumps and jockey pumps can be part of a broader water management strategy that includes using non-potable water sources for fire protection, thus conserving potable water for other uses. By integrating these technologies, green buildings can maintain effective fire protection while minimizing environmental impact.

1. Increase the suction head: Increasing the suction head, or the vertical distance between the suction inlet and the centreline of the impeller, can reduce the chances of cavitation.

2. Increase the impeller speed: Increasing the impeller speed can also reduce the chance of cavitation.

3. Install an air separator: An air separator in the suction line can help remove any entrained air from the system, thus reducing the chance of cavitation.

4. Install a venturi: A venturi installed in the suction line can help create an area of low pressure, which can reduce the chance of cavitation.

5. Install a priming valve: A primer valve can help reduce the suction head and thus reduce the chance of cavitation.

6. Install a vacuum breaker: A vacuum breaker can be used to reduce the pressure in the suction line, thus reducing the chance of cavitation.

7. Improve the suction piping: Improving the suction piping, such as using larger pipes, can reduce the chance of cavitation.

8. Inspect the pump and suction line: Inspecting the pump and suction line for any signs of wear or damage can help reduce the chance of cavitation.

In high-rise buildings, fire pumps and jockey pumps are critical components of the fire protection system, ensuring that water is delivered to the upper floors with sufficient pressure. Due to the height of these buildings, gravity significantly reduces water pressure as it travels upwards, making it essential for fire pumps to boost pressure to maintain effective firefighting capabilities. Jockey pumps maintain system pressure in between fire pump activations, compensating for minor leaks and ensuring the system is always primed. The design of these pumps in high-rise buildings often includes considerations for redundancy, with multiple pumps and backup power supplies to ensure continuous operation even during power outages or pump failures. This redundancy is vital in high-rise buildings, where a delay or failure in water delivery could have catastrophic consequences.

DJ series fire pump set consists of Diesel pump + Jockey pump and all accessories.
The pressure switch and control cabinet can automatically turn on/off three pumps-the electric pump and jockey pump operate when there is electricity and the diesel pump activates when the power cuts.

Diesel engine fire pumps are relatively common in life, and their performance requirements are relatively high. In normal use, more attention must be paid to maintenance to prolong the service life of the pump. Because diesel fire pumps are not omnipotent, there will be some problems in daily use, so when choosing equipment, we must pay attention to whether the quality of the equipment has reached the national standard. As fire equipment, all kinds of equipment must be Ensure performance, avoid affecting use in disasters and delay rescue.

The EJ model is basically a combination of an electric drive and a jockey pump. They consist primarily of an end suction pump driven by an electric motor, with no backup pump. It is also combined with a jockey pump for maintenance to form a complete skid.

The complete EJ-style skid is assembled with all discharge line accessories and connected to the skid-mounted control panel.

The EE Pump Set is designed according to the customer’s specifications which is including 2 electric pumps and 1 control panel.

There are many types of fire-fighting equipment. Fire hydrants and fire extinguishers are the most common types. The other is the fire pump, which is the heart of the fire-fighting system and plays an important role in pressurizing the fire-fighting system. Among the numerous fire pump products, fire pumps can be divided into multi-stage and single-stage fire pumps.

Operation of Electric Fire Pump Before start: 1. Turning the clutch by hand, there should be no jammed phenomenon at the turner position. 2. Opening the inlet valve and the vent valve, letting the water fill into the pump’s chamber, then closing the vent valve. 3. Clicking the switch of motor, and confirming whether the turning is right ornot. Running: 1. Fully opening the inlet valves, and closing the valves of the outlet pipe. 2. Connecting the power, Opening the valves of the outlet pipe and adjusting the needed working point when the turning velocity is normal. 3. Watching whether there exist abnormalities or not, if yes, should the pump be stopped and inspected before re-running. Stop: 1. After turning off the outlet valves one by one, shutting off the power. 2. Shutting off the inlet valves. 3. If the ambient temperature is below 0℃, some warm-keeping measures should be adopted.

1. Disconnect the power and turn off the fuel source.

2. Remove any remaining fuel in the pump.

3. Clean the pump with a mild detergent and warm water.

4. Flush the pump with clean water.

5. Grease the bearings and any moving parts of the pump.

6. Reassemble the pump.

7. Reconnect the power and fuel source.

8. Test the pump to ensure it is functioning properly.

Now the general diesel engine fire pump set is powered by imported or domestic Cummins, Wuxi Power Engine Factory and other diesel engines produced by large-scale key enterprises in the internal combustion engine industry at home and abroad, through highly elastic couplings or diaphragm couplings produced by professional manufacturers. The engine is directly connected with the water pump, and the power of the diesel engine can reach 880KW. It can be equipped with water pumps of different lifts and flow rates for customers to choose and use according to different needs.

Understanding the appropriate testing frequency for fire pumps is crucial for compliance with safety standards and ensuring system reliability. This article explores the recommended testing schedules, including monthly, quarterly, and annual tests. It also underscores the need for more frequent testing in specific situations, such as critical facilities or harsh operating environments.

An FDC is an external connection point that allows the fire department to supplement the water supply to the fire protection system using their hoses and equipment if needed.

The electric fire pump set is powered by a motor from a well-known manufacturer. At the same time, it can be equipped with low-voltage, high-voltage and explosion-proof motors with different protection levels according to the user’s use environment and conditions. It is characterized by simple operation and maintenance, low noise, and less equipment requirements.

Diesel and electric fire pumps are the two primary types of fire pumps used in fire protection systems, each with its own advantages and considerations. Diesel fire pumps are powered by internal combustion engines and are typically used in locations where a reliable electric power supply is not available or where redundancy is needed to ensure continuous operation during a power outage. Diesel pumps are known for their reliability and ability to operate independently of the electric grid, but they require regular maintenance of the engine and fuel system, including fuel storage and periodic testing.

Maintenance records provide a documented history of the pump’s condition, service intervals, and repairs, which are vital for compliance, insurance, and ensuring that pumps are in good working order during emergencies. Regular records also help identify recurring issues, allowing for proactive maintenance.
