When does the fire pump divert water?

In high-rise buildings, fire pumps and jockey pumps are critical components of the fire protection system, ensuring that water is delivered to the upper floors with sufficient pressure. Due to the height of these buildings, gravity significantly reduces water pressure as it travels upwards, making it essential for fire pumps to boost pressure to maintain effective firefighting capabilities. Jockey pumps maintain system pressure in between fire pump activations, compensating for minor leaks and ensuring the system is always primed. The design of these pumps in high-rise buildings often includes considerations for redundancy, with multiple pumps and backup power supplies to ensure continuous operation even during power outages or pump failures. This redundancy is vital in high-rise buildings, where a delay or failure in water delivery could have catastrophic consequences.

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.

EDJ series fire pump set consists of Electric pump + Diesel pump + Jockey pump and all accessories.
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,can work when the power is off.

Fire pump refers to a clean water pump used for fire water supply, and a single water pump with a non-corrosive treatment medium temperature below 80°C. The pump unit is a joint operation of multiple fire pumps to ensure the quantity and stability of water supply. The electric motor fire pump set adopts multiple fire water pumps powered by electric motors. The general fire water supply environment is equipped with one electric and one diesel fire pump as the reserve water pump to ensure sufficient emergency water consumption.
