The lower the pumping head of the fire pump, the smaller the motor load. Under the misleading of this kind of misunderstanding, when purchasing a water pump, the head of the water pump is often selected to be very high. In fact, for centrifugal water pumps, when the pump model is determined, the power consumption is proportional to the actual flow of the pump. The flow rate of the water pump will decrease with the increase of the head, so the higher the head, the smaller the flow rate and the smaller the power consumption. Conversely, the lower the lift, the greater the flow and the greater the power consumption. Therefore, in order to prevent the motor from overloading, it is generally required that the actual pumping head of the pump should not be lower than 60% of the calibrated head.

Multistage Fire Pumps: Multistage pumps consist of multiple impellers arranged in series. Each impeller adds pressure to the water, allowing these pumps to deliver high pressures. Multistage fire pumps are suitable for applications that require high-pressure delivery, such as high-rise buildings, industrial plants, and sprinkler systems with demanding pressure requirements.

Diesel-Driven Fire Pumps: Diesel-driven fire pumps are powered by diesel engines, providing a reliable source of power in situations where electricity may be unavailable or unreliable. These pumps are commonly used in remote locations, off-grid areas, and critical infrastructure where continuous operation is essential. Diesel-driven fire pumps are known for their durability and ability to deliver high flow rates and pressures.

It’s important to note that these classifications are not exhaustive, and variations of fire pumps exist within each category. The choice of fire pump classification depends on factors such as system requirements, available space, flow rates, pressure requirements, and power sources. Consulting with fire protection experts or system designers can help determine the most suitable fire pump classification for a specific application.

The conventional electric pump is the main pump, the diesel engine pump is the backup pump, and the voltage stabilizer pump plays a role in the stabilization of the whole system. When the electric pump fails or the mains is cut off, the control cabinet will receive the pressure gauge from the electric contact. When the signal comes, the diesel engine pump will be started within 5 seconds, and the rated working condition will be reached within 20 seconds to ensure the normal operation of the fire extinguishing work.

Diesel engine fire pumps are suitable for use in fire water supply environments with high head and high flow rate or as backup fire water supply pumps. The reason is that the diesel engine has strong power and can be used with large flow fire deep well pumps, and the diesel engine fire pumps have the characteristics of self-starting when power is off. Emergency water supply is available, so diesel engine fire pumps are favored.
