What are the characteristics of diesel engine fire pump sets

When customers choose a fire pump, they must choose the fire pump with the appropriate specifications according to their own needs, so that the fire pump can play its best role. And when choosing a fire pump, you must choose a fire pump produced by a regular manufacturer. Such a fire pump has more quality assurance, and the manufacturer will also provide customers with better after-sales service. When choosing a fire pump, don’t be blinded by those ultra-low-priced fire pumps on the market. Behind the ultra-low price, there are bound to be some quality defects hidden.

The electric fire pump set is powered by a motor from a well-known manufacturer. At the same time, it can be equipped with low-voltage, high-voltage and explosion-proof motors with different protection levels according to the user’s use environment and conditions. It is characterized by simple operation and maintenance, low noise, and less equipment requirements.

EDJ Fire pump set consists of a main electric pump(driven by electric motor), standby diesel pump(driven by diesel engine), and a multistage jockey pump. Pumps are assembled with discharge pipe and suction pipe as well as Control Panel.And this fire pump system can be customized for different purposes such as high rise buildings, warehouses,facilities,hospitals, supermarkets,shopping malls,villas,apartments,etc.

The equipment is suitable for fire water supply and emergency water supply in various occasions such as warehouses, docks, airports, petroleum, chemical, factories, power plants, liquefied gas, textiles, ships, cruise ships, etc.

The EDJ fire pump group is composed of electric pump + diesel pump + jockey pump. The three pumps are automatically started and stopped. When the stabilized pump detects that the electric pump cannot operate normally, the diesel engine pump will start automatically. Can also be used, the fire pump set is widely used in various emergency firefighting occasions.

The EJ (Electric pump + Jockey pump) Dual Power Fire Pump System is an innovative and reliable fire protection solution. Combining an electric pump for robust water pressure and flow with a top-quality jockey pump for stable pressure maintenance, this system ensures efficient and timely water supply during fires. With advanced automation, remote monitoring, and energy-saving features, the EJ Dual Power Fire Pump System is a trusted choice for commercial, industrial, and residential applications.

Fire pumps can be powered by various sources, including electricity, diesel engines, and, in some cases, natural gas. The selection of a power source depends on factors such as reliability, availability, and the specific requirements of the facility.

Electric fire pumps are commonly used in urban areas with a stable power supply. They are efficient and can start automatically in response to a fire alarm signal. In contrast, diesel-powered fire pumps are reliable in areas with inconsistent power availability, as they can function independently. The choice of power source should align with the facility’s operational conditions and the need for uninterrupted fire protection.

The biggest difference between a diesel engine fire pump and an electric water pump is that it has its own independent power supply system, which ensures the normal operation of the project without power or power supply. Its role is self-evident, and it can be said to be a great helper in fire emergency .
In terms of industrial applications, diesel engine fire pumps are widely used in emergency water supply for large-scale projects such as high-rise buildings, steel plants, chemical plants, hotels, and water works.

1. When the pipeline fire pump noise occurs, the most likely fault is the imbalance of the fire pump rotor. Since the water output of the fire pump mainly depends on the high-speed rotation of the rotor, when the rotor is unbalanced for some reason, it will cause the fire pump to deviate from the original rotation track during the rotation process, resulting in the fire pump appearing in the pipeline. When judging the failure of the rotor, it is mainly to replace the rotor of the pump or make a balance hole on the rotor blade of the pump to find out the balance difference.

2. The production noise of the fire pump pipeline has a certain effect. For example, forcing a small flow of a pipe “fire pump” to increase power to increase the original flow will create vibrations in the fire pump. Therefore, whether you use a pipeline fire pump or other types of water pumps, you should follow the water pump use standards to prevent the water pump from making noise, which will affect the service life of the water pump. The solution is to use the pump according to the instructions. If the efficiency of use is affected, it is recommended to replace the appropriate pipeline “fire pump” for use.

3. The installation did not meet the standards, resulting in abnormal noise from the pipeline fire pump. Fire pumps and fire hydrant pumps vibrate at a high frequency during operation, so they must be fixed during installation. If the bolt between the pump body and the base or between the base and the base is loose when installing the pipe fire pump, the transmission shaft between the pump body and the motor of the pipe pump will be bent. It lowered the concentricity and caused an imbalance in the fire pump rotor. This is one of the noise phenomena of fire pumps. In order to improve this phenomenon, the pump shaft of the fire pump needs to be balanced and then reinstalled. Finally, the base of the pump was reinforced.

4. Blockage of the impeller passage can also cause fire pump noise. When the internal flow channel of the fire pump is blocked by foreign matter, it will cause uneven resistance of the fire pump impeller and vibrate the fire pump. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly disassemble and maintain the fire pump to prevent foreign matter from blocking the pipeline.

5. The bearing of the fire pump is damaged. Bearing damage generally does not occur on the main body of an in-line fire pump. If there is a problem with the quality of the pump, or because some hard objects enter the pump body of the tube pump, the bearing is damaged, and the rotor is unstable at first. Causes noise from pipeline fire pumps.

6. Finally, cavitation, cavitation occurs in any type of pump, but some are obviously not noticeable. If cavitation occurs, consider raising the fire pump or increasing the pressure in the piping. If the cavitation phenomenon cannot be changed, the fire pump model needs to be redesigned and replaced.

The minimum fire rated pressure of small fire fighting package set water supply equipment is 6 bar, and the minimum fire rated capacity is 25 GPM. EDJ small fire fighting package set water supply equipment includes at least two power or power source driven pumping units, pressure tanks, pipes, valves and accessories, measurement and control instruments, control cabinets, outdoor rain cover, etc.

Diesel engine fire pump set is a new type of fire-fighting equipment developed by our company in strict accordance with the national standard GB6245-98 “Fire Pump Performance Requirements and Test Methods” and the American Fire Protection Association standard NEPA20 “Installation of Centrifugal Fire Pumps” and other standards (hereinafter referred to as equipment ), this series of equipment can be divided into three sub-series, XBC-IS, XBC-SLOW, XBC-D, etc. The equipment has a wide range of pressure and flow, and its application can almost meet various occasions required by fire protection.

In fire protection systems, various types of fire pumps are used. Fire pumps are classified as horizontal split case, vertical split case, vertical in-line, vertical turbine, or end suction. These fire pumps may be powered by an electric motor, a diesel engine, or on rare occasion powered by a steam turbine.

The DJ model is basically a combination of a diesel engine and a jockey pump. They consist mainly of end suction pumps driven by diesel engines and have no backup pumps. It is also combined with a jockey pump for maintenance to form a complete skid.

The complete DJ style skid is assembled with all discharge line fittings and connected to the skid mounted control panel.

Available DJ-type fire pump skid kits provide the following flows:
50, 120, 150, 250, 300, 350, 500, 750 and 1000 GPM.

There is a combination equipment that uses diesel as fuel for firefighting, but it is usually used as a backup firefighting facility, because it can only be started automatically when the firefighting signal comes, and the electric water pump fails or the power supply is cut off, that is, the diesel engine firefighting pump set. It is very different from the electric fire pump in that it has its own independent power supply and storage system.

The fire-fighting water provided by most fire-fighting water sources needs to be pressurized by fire-fighting water pumps to meet the requirements for water pressure and water volume during fire-fighting, which is an important part of fire-fighting. In daily use, we often encounter fire pumps vibrating or making abnormal noises. What is the problem?
1. The installation is not firm and the fasteners are loos

2. Wear between impeller and seal ring

3. Improper installation of pump body and pump shaft

4. Cavitation causes abnormal sound inside the pump

Maintaining a fire pump in the context of a mechanical seal can be critical for safety and performance in various industries. Misunderstandings during this maintenance process can lead to inefficiencies, failures, and safety hazards. Here are some common misunderstandings related to fire pump mechanical seal maintenance:
