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.

DJ (diesel pump + jockey pump) Fire Pump Set
DJ Fire Pump Set The fire pump set consists of a pump connected to the diesel engine, pressure jockey pump, pressure vessel, controller for manual or automatic operation of the system and standard accessories mounted on the base. The fire pump system can be customized for different uses, such as high-rise buildings, facilities, hospitals, supermarkets, shopping malls, villas, apartments, etc.

This is a set of EDJ fire pump set, which consists of electric pump + diesel pump + jockey pump. The three pumps are automatically started and stopped. When the joceky 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.

EDJ series fire pump set consists of electric pump + diesel pump + jockey pump and all accessories.
The pressure switch and the control cabinet can automatically turn on/off the three pumps – the electric pump and the pipe charging pump work when there is electricity, and the diesel pump is started when the power is off.
Flow range: 50-5000 GPM
Pressure range: 4-14 bar
Power range: 4-325 KW

Proper design and installation of suction and discharge piping are vital for the efficient operation of a fire pump system. The suction piping connects the fire pump to the water supply source, while the discharge piping carries water from the pump to the fire protection devices.

Key considerations for these piping systems include the sizing, material selection, and routing. Proper sizing ensures that water can be drawn from the source at the required rate, and the piping material must be compatible with the water and the environment. Piping routing should minimize friction losses and ensure that the system operates without cavitation or other issues.
