Purpose and function of diesel engine fire pump

Fire pumps play a pivotal role in fire protection systems by ensuring a reliable and pressurized water supply for firefighting efforts. When a fire breaks out, immediate access to water at a sufficient flow and pressure is critical to containing and extinguishing the flames. In many cases, the water supply provided by municipal water mains may not be adequate, necessitating the use of fire pumps to boost water delivery to firefighting equipment.

Fire pumps are especially crucial in large industrial or commercial buildings, as they ensure that every corner of the facility has access to water for firefighting. Without fire pumps, there might be inadequate pressure or flow, resulting in a delayed response, potentially leading to greater fire damage.

Diesel engine fire pump is a kind of mechatronics equipment that is directly driven by diesel engine fire pump and can start and complete water supply in a short time. Diesel engine pump set is driven by diesel oil without external power supply. Diesel engine pump is suitable for agricultural irrigation, emergency rescue, smelting, hangars, petrochemical oil depots, power plants, liquefied gas stations, textiles and other fire-fighting water supply occasions, especially in the absence of electricity, When the power grid is not satisfied, it is the safest choice to use a diesel engine to drive the water pump.

The fire pumps produced by our company are suitable for fire protection occasions such as warehouses, docks, airports, petrochemicals, power plants, liquefied gas, textiles, ships, oil tankers and so on.

Instructions for use:
Altitude: ≤1000m;
Ambient temperature: +5℃～+40℃;
Relative humidity: <= 90%.

A fire pump starts when the pressure in the fire protection system drops below a set threshold, indicating water flow caused by sprinkler activation or manual use of a fire hose. The pressure drop is detected by pressure-sensing devices, triggering the fire pump to activate and provide adequate water pressure.

The function of the diesel fire pump is very powerful. We can set the control time during use, for example: preheating in advance, pre-lubrication or timing start. The use of high technology has made some complicated and time-consuming things easier. The preheating setting in advance has greatly reduced the preparation time for rescue, allowing firefighters to rescue at the first time. In the face of disasters, time is money, time It is life.

The multi-stage fire pump consists of two parts: the motor and the pump, and the motor and the pump are coaxial. The structure of the pump consists of pump body, impeller, pump cover, mechanical seal and so on. The inlet and outlet of the pump are on the same horizontal axis and have the same caliber specification, so the loading and unloading is very convenient, and the floor space is small. The pump is fitted with a base for easy installation and increased pump stability. It is used to transport clear water without solid particles, liquids with physical and chemical properties similar to water. It is mainly used for pressurized water delivery in fire protection system pipelines, and is also suitable for industrial and urban water supply and drainage.

Fire pumps have a wide range of uses. In addition to providing water for fire-fighting pipeline systems, they can also be used in industrial water supply. Fire pumps can also be used in urban water supply and drainage systems. There are other relatively long-distance water supply work, such as heating boilers, bathroom boilers, hot and cold water circulation pressurization of multi-stage fire pump boilers, etc.

Diesel engine fire pump is a kind of fire-fighting equipment that we often see and often use in our life. The diesel engine fire pump has the characteristics of good starting performance, strong overload capacity, compact internal structure, convenient maintenance, simple operation and high degree of automation. It is a very reliable fire fighting equipment.

Fire sprinkler systems are hydraulically calculated prior to installation to determine adequate water flow and in order to ensure the system can reliably suppress a fire until fire crews arrive. When it’s determined inadequate flow is available from a municipal supply for the system to operate effectively, a fire pump is installed. The fire pump operates when the sprinkler system pressure drops below a certain threshold, due to the operation of sprinkler heads. The fire pump draws additional water from the municipal water supply or on site storage tanks, to maintain the sprinkler systems required operating pressure. Fire pumps are often required in high rise construction and large area buildings, due to the size of piping systems and pressure loss.

The engine cooling system of the diesel engine fire pump adopts double closed-loop heat exchangers. The system has the advantages of high cooling efficiency and little impact on the ambient temperature of the pump room. The cooling water flow direction is controlled by a ball valve from the pump outlet pipe to the heat exchanger, so that the cooling water temperature of the machine body is between 85 and 95 °C. If the water temperature is too high, you can increase the opening of the ball valve, increase the heat dissipation capacity of the heat exchanger, and reduce the temperature of the engine cooling water.
