The function and characteristics of diesel engine fire pump
The biggest difference between the diesel engine fire pump and the electric water pump is that it has its own independent power supply system – the storage battery. Therefore, the start and operation of the diesel engine fire pump can be completely separated from the mains.
Diesel engine fire pumps are usually used as a backup facility, and will only start automatically when the electric water pump fails or the power is cut off when the fire signal comes. When equipped with an ultra-low pressure pump starting device, the matching electric pump control cabinet should also be equipped with an ultra-low pressure pump starting device, and the lower limit of pump starting should have a certain pressure difference. Of course, it is also possible to design a control system that is more suitable for customer needs according to customer requirements.
