       The operation of the Fire Pump Set

     Operation of diesel engine fire pump

     Diesel engine fire pump operation:Start, Stop and Run of the Equipment

Start: first make sure of the correct rotatingdirection of the fire fighting pump and the inlet valve is as N.O and outletvalve N.C. Before the pipe network starts with no water. After no error is found, start the fire-fighting pump and, when the pump gets stable run, gradually open the outlet valve and adjust it to the work condition point for the pump to run. The outlet valve is N.O. when the network is filled with water at usual.
Run: when the pump gets a normal run, check the shaft seal and the bearing to see how it works. Theleakage for themechanical seal should not be over 3 drops/min and for the stuffing seal should be dot drop. The bearing’s temperature should not be over 75℃ and its temperature rise not over 35℃ Stop running for a checking case of an abnormal sound during the pump’s run.
To stop, first close the outlet valve, then the diesel engine.

The self-priming pump is a self-priming centrifugal pump. It has the advantages of compact structure, convenient operation, stable operation, easy maintenance, high efficiency, long service life, and strong self-priming capacity. There is no need to install a bottom valve in the pipeline. Before operation, it is only necessary to ensure that there is a certain amount of liquid in the pump. Self priming pumps of different materials can be used for different liquids.

The working principle of self-priming pump is to fill the pump casing with water (or there is water in the pump casing itself) before starting the pump. After startup, the high-speed rotation of the impeller causes the water in the impeller channel to flow to the volute. At this time, a vacuum is formed at the inlet to open the inlet check valve. The air in the suction pipe enters the pump and reaches the outer edge through the impeller channel.
