The full name of diesel engine fire pump is engineering diesel engine fire pump set, which can be automatically charged, automatically started, and has the functions of automatic alarm and automatic preheating. The diesel engine fire pump is usually used as a backup facility, so it will only start automatically when the fire signal comes, and when the electric water pump fails or the power supply is cut off. When it has a device for starting the pump at ultra-low pressure, its matching electric water pump control cabinet should also have a device for starting the pump at ultra-low pressure, and the lower limit of the two pumps should have a certain pressure difference.

Standard EDJ fire pump set consists of electric pump + diesel pump + jockey pump.The pressure switch and control cabinet can automatically turn on/off three pumps-the electric pump and jockey pump operate when there is electricity and the diesel pump activates when the power cuts.

The fire pump is a high-tech product, which is characterized by high efficiency, fast pumping speed, very strong sealing, and low leakage, which can also be said to be no leakage. The use of fire pumps is very extensive, of course, the most important one is used in the fire protection industry, it is also used in water treatment, environmental protection industry and so on. Among these uses, the fire protection industry uses the most. The fire protection industry makes full use of the advantages of fire pumps, which is the advantage of fast pumping. Because most of the work in the fire protection industry is to extinguish fires, the fire pump plays a very important role. Fire pumps are not just used in the firefighting industry. Fire pumps are also used in many other places. In larger industries, such as industry, as well as urban water supply and drainage, and water transportation for the construction of high-rise buildings, there is also water delivery over relatively long distances. There are also smaller industries, such as heating and boilers.
