What is a jockey pump? While its name may remind you of one of those little guys that tells a race horse where to go, a jockey pump is actually used to maintain a high pressure in a fire suppression system.

Fire pump refers to a clean water pump used for fire water supply, and a single water pump with a treatment medium temperature lower than 80 degrees and non-corrosive. The pump unit is a joint operation of multiple fire pumps to ensure the quantity and stability of water supply. The electric fire pump set adopts multiple fire pumps powered by electric motors. The general fire water supply environment is equipped with one electric and one diesel fire pump as the reserve water pump to ensure sufficient emergency water consumption. The main components of the electric motor fire pump set are the motor and the pump body. The subdivision of the pump body is the pump casing, impeller, pump shaft, bearing, coupling, sealing form, water pipe, etc. The specific fire pump model is determined according to the environment and performance requirements. At the same time According to the material quotation required by the customer, accurate selection is conducive to on-site use and reduces failure problems.

In smart buildings, the latest trends in fire pump technology focus on integrating advanced sensors, IoT (Internet of Things) capabilities, and data analytics to enhance system performance and reliability. Smart fire pumps can communicate with building management systems (BMS) to provide real-time data on pump status, water flow, pressure, and other key parameters. This data can be used for predictive maintenance, alerting operators to potential issues before they become critical. Additionally, smart pumps can adjust their operation based on real-time conditions, optimizing energy use and ensuring the most efficient response during a fire emergency. These technologies enhance safety and align with the broader trend toward more intelligent, automated, and energy-efficient building systems.

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.

Yes, firefighting pumps are often used in conjunction with water tanks, lakes, rivers, or other water sources to ensure a constant and adequate water supply during firefighting operations. Portable water tanks or drafting equipment can be employed to access water from non-traditional sources when necessary.

Diesel fire pumps are available in various configurations, including horizontal split-case, vertical turbine, and end-suction pumps. Each type has its advantages and is suitable for different applications based on factors such as space limitations, flow requirements, and installation preferences. Consulting with a qualified engineer or fire protection specialist can help determine the most appropriate type of diesel fire pump for a specific application.

Fire pump control systems are critical for ensuring the reliable operation of fire pumps. This article delves into the components and functionalities of fire pump control systems, including starting mechanisms, alarms, and interface with fire alarm systems. It emphasizes the role of these systems in enhancing safety and reliability during fire emergencies.

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.

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.

1. Diesel pump: the flow rate is the same as that of the electric pump. It connects pump sets with highly elastic couplings or universal joints.
2. jockey pump: vertical, small flow, higher lift than electric or diesel pumps.
3. Control panel: Automatically control the water pump with overload and overcurrent protection.
4. Accessories: suction pipe, discharge pipe with flange, battery, gate valve, check valve, flexible expansion joint, pressure switch, pressure gauge, base, etc.

Yes, firefighting pumps are often integrated into building fire protection systems, such as sprinkler systems and standpipes. These pumps provide the necessary water pressure to ensure effective fire suppression in case of an emergency.

Fire pump package comprises a combination of electric motor driven pump, diesel engine driven and electric motor driven jockey pumps that supply for fire suppression systems.
