The main functional characteristics of diesel engine fire pump

diesel fire pump set, also known as a diesel engine-driven fire pump, is a type of fire pump system used for fire protection in buildings, facilities, and industrial settings. It is designed to provide water at high pressure and flow rates to fire sprinkler systems, standpipe systems, and other fire protection equipment in the event of a fire emergency. Diesel fire pump sets are an essential component of fire protection systems, especially in areas with unreliable or insufficient electric power supply.

Proper maintenance of diesel engine fire pumps, especially preventive maintenance, is simple and economical maintenance, so it is the key to prolong service life and reduce operating costs. Daily maintenance can be carried out according to the following steps to check the amount of fuel in the fuel tank – observe the amount of fuel stored in the fuel tank, and fill it up as needed.

The electric fire pump set is an important fire pump equipment, usually in a horizontal state. Each pump group is composed of five parts: front pump, electric motor, hydraulic coupling, main feed water pump, lubricating oil device (including lubricating oil cooler and working oil cooler. In normal state, two sets are running, one There are two standby pumps, and any feedwater pump set can be used as a standby pump. When one of the two running pumps stops due to an accident, the standby pump will be put into operation automatically.

Electric fire pumps are used in various water environments, not only to meet the general water supply but also to be a good helper for fire-fighting water. The electric fire pump is manufactured with good structure and workmanship. It has a wide range of performance, and is easy to use and operate for a long time. The motor fire pump is aimed at various fire water environments, so the selection should also be based on the actual demand environment, performance parameters, etc.

Electric fire pumps are driven by electric motors, and are divided into horizontal, vertical and many other structural varieties. The electric fire pump set has a small footprint, light weight, low noise, and good start-up and operation performance. Although electric fire pumps have the advantages of simple operation and maintenance, most fire protection system design specifications stipulate that when electric fire pumps are used, they should have the conditions for dual-circuit power supply, and diesel engine fire pumps are usually used as backup pumps.

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.

The diesel engine fire pump has the characteristics of good starting performance, serious load operation, compact structure, time-saving and labor-saving maintenance, simple application, and high level of automatic control technology. It is a security monitoring device with reliable performance. The full name of the diesel engine fire pump we usually say is the engineering diesel fire pump set, which can operate at an ambient temperature of -25~55°C, and can be automatically charged, automatically started, and has the functions of automatic alarm and automatic preheating. It is very reliable.

Diesel engine fire pump sets are mainly suitable for fire water supply and foam fire extinguishing systems in petrochemical, natural gas, power generation, cotton and linen textiles, warehouses, airports, docks, high-rise buildings and other industries. It can also be used in occasions such as water ships, offshore oil tankers and fire fighting ships. The unit adopts imported diesel engine and fire pump. It has the characteristics of quick start, reliable water diversion, reasonable power reserve, stable operation, high degree of “three modernizations”, wide range of pressure and flow, etc. It is an advanced and reliable fire-fighting equipment.

All places need to be equipped with fire-fighting facilities, and fire pumps are necessary water intake equipment for fire-fighting facilities. At least one or two fire pumps are equipped. Our commonly used fire pumps are electric fire pumps and diesel engine fire pumps. The difference between the two is The electric fire pump needs to be supplied by the power system. If the power is cut off, the diesel engine fire pump can be started at any time to make up for the original position of the electric fire pump.

Dual power fire pump has high efficiency, remarkable energy-saving effect, compact structure, low noise, small floor area, saving investment and energy, and has obtained UL certification.

Fire pumps and jockey pumps work together to ensure that a fire protection system is always ready to operate at peak efficiency. The jockey pump is primarily responsible for maintaining the system’s normal pressure, compensating for minor leaks, and preventing the fire pump from running unnecessarily. When a fire occurs, and a significant drop in pressure is detected due to water discharge from sprinklers or hoses, the fire pump is activated to provide the necessary water flow and pressure. This interaction ensures that the system operates efficiently, minimizing wear and tear on the fire pump while keeping the system primed and ready for an emergency.

A fire pump system typically includes the pump itself, a driver (usually an electric motor or diesel engine), a controller, and various accessories like suction and discharge piping, check valves, and pressure gauges.

Before starting the electric motor fire pump set, the inspection work is indispensable. Check the condition of the power supply and motor, whether the water volume of the reservoir is sufficient, and whether the water inlet and outlet are normal. The inspection is normal and then starts; after the fire pump is started, attention should be paid to the vibration and temperature rise. It is necessary to set the maintenance time period to ensure the stable performance of the fire pump. According to the needs of system operation control and maintenance management, the electrical control cabinet of the fire pump mainly has the functions of starting and stopping the pump, switching between the main and standby pumps, manual automatic switching, dual power switching, patrol inspection, Protection, feedback mechanical emergency start and other functions.
