Large public events, such as festivals, outdoor concerts, and sporting events, often occur in temporary or open-air settings that lack the built-in fire safety infrastructure of permanent venues. Fire pumps are crucial for providing water pressure to portable fire suppression systems, such as temporary sprinklers, hydrants, or foam systems. Jockey pumps help maintain consistent pressure, ensuring that the system is ready to respond quickly to any fire emergencies. In these temporary setups, fire pumps may need to draw water from nearby reservoirs, lakes, or portable water tanks, requiring flexibility and adaptability in their design. Since large crowds can complicate evacuation efforts, fire pumps play a vital role in controlling fires quickly and limiting their spread, minimizing risks to attendees. Event organizers must coordinate with fire safety professionals to ensure that fire pumps are properly set up, tested, and maintained throughout the duration of the event. Furthermore, regular safety drills and the presence of trained staff on-site help ensure that fire protection systems, including pumps, are ready to function effectively in emergency situations.

Key Factors to Consider:
NPSHa vs. NPSHr: The Net Positive Suction Head Available (NPSHa) must always exceed the Net Positive Suction Head Required (NPSHr) to prevent cavitation.
Elevation & Water Source: Pumps drawing from underground tanks or reservoirs need to account for elevation changes and friction losses.
Pipe Sizing & Layout: Use properly sized pipes and minimize bends to reduce suction losses.
Compliance with NFPA 20: Follow recommended practices for suction piping to ensure smooth operation.
