Features of the standard fire pump
The difference between a fire pump and a normal pump
- High reliability: The fire pump may be turned off for months, but at the moment of the accident, it should be turned on without any errors.
- Materials of parts: Body and impeller should be resistant to corrosion and heat.
- Flat curve: The pump should be able to manage flow rate changes without severe pressure drop.
Types of fire pumps available in Iran, Taherlo pump
We at Iran Pump Taherlo offer a wide range of pumps for safety systems:
1. Ground centrifugal pumps
These pumps are the most widely used type of fire booster pumps. They are installed on the chassis and are usually coupled with an electric motor. Easy access for repairs and the ability to supply high pressures are among their features.
2. Vertical turbine pumps
For cases where the water source is underground and there is no need for negative suction, these pumps are a suitable option.
3. Split case pumps
These pumps are used for very high flow rates and are used in large industries and petrochemicals. The housing of these pumps is in two pieces, which makes its service very easy.
Integration with notification and extinguishing systems
The title Sale of fire pump suitable for announcement and extinguishing systems indicates that the pump must be coordinated with other components of the safety system. When the smoke or heat sensors of the fire alarm system are activated or when the sprinklers are opened, the pressure in the network drops. At this moment, the control panel of the pump booster should immediately issue the start command to the fire pump.
In fire pump booster systems supported by Iran Pump Taherlo, a "jockey pump" is usually used. The job of the jockey pump is to compensate for minor pressure drops caused by leaks so that the main pump does not turn on unnecessarily. But in case of severe pressure drop (sprinkler opening), the main pump enters the circuit.
National and International Standards (NFPA)
In purchasing and selling a fire pump, compliance with the NFPA 20 standard is critical. According to this standard:
- The pump should not have a pressure less than 65% of the nominal pressure at a flow rate of 150% of the nominal capacity.
- The pressure in the shut-off mode should not be more than 140% of the nominal pressure.
The equipment provided in Iran Pump Taherlu is selected and supplied by considering the requirements of the Iran Fire Department and valid standards.
Important points in maintaining the fire pumping system
Even the best pumps need maintenance.
- Weekly test: The pump should be turned on for a short time once a week to ensure that the parts do not seize.
- Check the valves: Make sure all the inlet and outlet valves are open and ready to work.
- Check the electrical panel: The diesel generator batteries (if any) and the electrical connections of the electropump should be checked.
