How to Choose an ED Fire Pump Set

The lower the pumping head of the fire pump, the smaller the motor load. Under the misleading of this kind of misunderstanding, when purchasing a water pump, the head of the water pump is often selected to be very high. In fact, for centrifugal water pumps, when the pump model is determined, the power consumption is proportional to the actual flow of the pump. The flow rate of the water pump will decrease with the increase of the head, so the higher the head, the smaller the flow rate and the smaller the power consumption. Conversely, the lower the lift, the greater the flow and the greater the power consumption. Therefore, in order to prevent the motor from overloading, it is generally required that the actual pumping head of the pump should not be lower than 60% of the calibrated head.

Regular training for personnel on the operation and maintenance of fire pumps is crucial for ensuring the reliability and effectiveness of a fire protection system. Training helps personnel understand the system’s components, recognize signs of potential issues, and perform routine maintenance tasks, such as inspecting for leaks, testing alarms, and checking pump alignment. Familiarity with emergency procedures and the ability to respond quickly in case of a fire can significantly reduce response times and prevent further damage. Additionally, well-trained personnel can perform basic troubleshooting, reducing downtime and maintenance costs by addressing minor issues before they escalate. Ensuring that all staff involved with fire pump systems are adequately trained contributes to overall safety and readiness.

A typical firefighting pump system consists of the pump itself, intake and discharge hoses, nozzles, strainers or filters to prevent debris from entering the pump, and sometimes additional accessories like foam injection systems for enhanced fire suppression capabilities.

In fire protection systems that include fire hydrants, jockey pumps play a key role in maintaining the necessary system pressure to ensure hydrants are immediately ready for use. Fire hydrants are typically located throughout a property or a city to provide easy access to water for firefighting efforts. The jockey pump helps maintain a consistent pressure in the piping network that supplies these hydrants, ensuring they are always charged and ready to deliver water when a firefighter opens them. This is especially important in systems with extensive piping networks, where pressure fluctuations could occur due to minor leaks, thermal expansion, or water usage. By keeping the system pressurized, jockey pumps help ensure a rapid response during a fire emergency, providing critical support to firefighting operations.

Fire pump installations must consider factors such as temperature, humidity, and potential flooding. Pumps should be installed in environments that protect them from extreme conditions to ensure reliable operation.

As the name implies, fire pumps are classified into different types according to different classification methods, and are widely used in environmental protection, water treatment, fire protection and other departments because of their fully sealed, leak-free, and corrosion-resistant characteristics. liquid-like. The pump types are similar, but the head and flow are different. The selection basis of the fire pump should be considered according to the process flow, water supply and drainage requirements, and other five aspects.

Diesel fire pump is suitable for discharging seriously polluted industrial wastewater, sewage discharge station in main residential area, water distribution system of urban sewage treatment plant, drainage station of civil air defense system, water supply equipment of waterworks, sewage discharge of hospitals and hotels, municipal engineering construction site, mine auxiliary machinery , rural biogas digesters, farmland irrigation and other industries.

The EDJ fire pump group is composed of electric pump + diesel pump + jockey pump. The three pumps are automatically started and stopped. When the stabilized pump detects that the electric pump cannot operate normally, the diesel engine pump will start automatically. Can also be used, the fire pump set is widely used in various emergency firefighting occasions.

A fire pump is required when the available pressure from the water system is insufficient to supply adequate pressure to all of the sprinkler heads in the structure at the required flow. The required flow is based on heads activating in a given area, which is determined by the hazard to be protected. Fire pumps are more commonly needed in taller buildings, but can also occur in shorter buildings in hilly locations.

Fire pump set test mainly tests pressure and flow. In all pump products, pressure and flow and two extremely important parameters. Pressure determines the pumping height or water delivery height of the pump, and flow determines the hourly water output of the pump. In addition. Product power and voltage, as well as environmental testing is also essential.
