Fire Pump

Fire pumps, as the name implies, are pumps used for firefighting. These fire pumps are imported products and are categorized into different types based on various classification methods. Known for their fully sealed, leak-proof, and corrosion-resistant features, they are widely used in environmental protection, water treatment, and firefighting departments. They are ideal for pumping various liquids and are the perfect choice for creating leak-proof and pollution-free workshops and factories. The types of pumps are quite similar, with the only differences being the head and flow rate. When installing fire pumps, they must comply with the standard requirements.

1. Prior to the installation of fire pumps, verify the product's certification, ensuring its specifications, model, and performance align with the design requirements. Installation should be carried out according to the provided installation and operation manual.

2. Prior to installation, the concrete strength of the pump foundation, vibration isolation device, coordinates, elevation, dimensions, and bolt hole positions of the fire pump should be verified.

3. Prior to the installation of fire pumps, the spacing between the fire pumps and between the fire pumps and the wall or other equipment should be verified, and it should meet the requirements for installation, operation, and maintenance management.

4. The control valve on the suction pipe of the fire pump should be installed after the fire pump is securely mounted on the base. Its diameter should not be smaller than the diameter of the pump's suction opening, and control valves without reliable locking devices should not be used. Groove-type or flanged valves should be used for the control valves.

5. When the fire pump and fire reservoir are located on separate foundations and rigidly connected to each other, a flexible connection pipe should be installed on the suction pipe.

6. There should be no air bags or leakage on the horizontal section of the suction pipe. When changing diameters, use eccentric reducing fittings and ensure the pipe tops are flush.

7. The discharge pipe of the fire pump should be equipped with a silencer check valve, control valve, and pressure gauge; the main discharge pipe of the system should also be fitted with a pressure gauge and pressure switch; a buffer device should be added when installing the pressure gauge. A plug should be installed between the pressure gauge and the buffer device; if there are no design requirements, the range of the pressure gauge should be twice to 2.5 times the system working pressure.

8. The vibration isolation device of the fire pump and the flexible connection of the inlet pipe should be installed in accordance with the design requirements, and product descriptions as well as installation and usage instructions should be provided.
