Diesel engine fire pump working range

Diesel engine fire pumps are often used for emergency water supply in high-rise buildings, water companies, steel plants, wineries, chemical plants, hotels, hospitals, and other large-scale projects. The diesel emergency water supply pump set is suitable for unattended emergency water supply systems. The product has the characteristics of high automation, superior performance, complete protection functions, reasonable structure, simple installation, and high cost performance. When the factory suddenly loses power, the diesel emergency water supply pump set automatically starts to replenish pipe network pressure.

Diesel engine fire pump features:

1. High efficiency and energy saving: Using CFD to calculate fluid dynamics, analyze and calculate the relationship between pressure distribution and velocity distribution in the pump, optimize the flow channel design of the pump, ensure that the pump has an efficient hydraulic profile, and improve the efficiency of the pump.

2. Convenient installation and maintenance: vertical pipeline structure, the inlet and outlet of the pump can be installed in any position and direction of the pipeline like a valve, which is very convenient for installation and maintenance.

3. Stable operation, safe and reliable: The direct connection between the motor and the pump simplifies the intermediate transmission structure, enhances the stability of operation, and makes the unit run smoothly, safe and reliable.

4. Stainless steel sleeve: The position of the mechanical seal of the shaft is relatively easy to be corroded. Once the direct-coupled pump shaft is corroded, it is easy to cause the mechanical seal to fail. The pump here is inlaid with stainless steel sleeves to avoid corrosion, improve shaft life and reduce operation and maintenance costs.

    1. Automatic start: After the diesel engine pump unit receives a fire alarm/pipe network pressure/power failure/or other start-up signals, it can start automatically within 15 seconds and be put into full-load operation;
    2. Automatic charging: the battery can be automatically charged by the mains or diesel engine charging motor to ensure the smooth start of the unit;
    3. Automatic alarm: automatic alarm protection for diesel engine low oil pressure, high water temperature and other faults, and alarm and stop when the speed is exceeded again;
    4. Automatic preheating: keep the diesel engine in a hot standby state to ensure emergency work;
    5. Direct connection type: The diesel engine pump unit below 360kw adopts the first domestic direct connection technology between the diesel engine and the water pump through the elastic coupling, which reduces the failure points, greatly shortens the starting time of the unit, and increases the reliability and emergency performance of the unit ;
    6. Users can also request to set other alarm outputs (non-standard supply);
    7. With telemetry, remote signaling and remote control functions (non-standard supply);
    8. The equipment is powered by X6135, 12V135, 4102, 4105, 6102 and other series diesel engines. The diesel engine (with clutch) is connected with the fire pump through a highly elastic coupling to form a fire pump group. Fans, control panels (for automatic units) and other components.
    9. When it is an automatic control unit, the split diesel engine automatic control cabinet (programmable) realizes the automatic start, input and automatic switching of the system (the electric pump group is switched to the diesel engine pump group or the diesel engine pump group of this group is switched to another group. Diesel unit), automatic protection (diesel engine overspeed, low oil pressure, high water temperature, three start failures, low oil level, low battery voltage and other alarm shutdown protection) and other functions, and can also interface with the user’s fire center or automatic fire alarm device, Realize remote monitoring.
    10. In order to ensure the normal operation of the unit in an environment below 5°C, the unit can be equipped with an AC220V cooling water preheating heating device.
    11. Diesel engine fire pump can form an automatic fire water supply system with electric pump group, stabilized pump, etc.
    There are two water inlet methods for fire pumps: self-irrigation and suction. According to the requirements of fire protection regulations, it is generally self-irrigation. If the user needs to absorb two kinds of water, according to the requirements of fire protection regulations, it is generally the method of self-irrigation and water diversion. If the user needs to suck up the water inlet system, special instructions are required so that the company can provide an automatic vacuum water diversion device, but the size of the pump set has changed.

    Starting and operating a diesel engine fire pump in a low-temperature environment requires special attention to ensure proper functionality and prevent potential issues. Here are some key considerations for starting and operating a diesel engine fire pump in cold weather:

    Preheating: Preheating the diesel engine is crucial in cold temperatures to facilitate easier starting. Use the engine’s preheating system, if available, to warm up the engine block and aid in combustion. Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for the recommended preheating duration and procedures.

    Fuel Quality: Ensure that the diesel fuel used in the fire pump is suitable for low-temperature conditions. Diesel fuel can gel or become thicker in cold temperatures, which can impede fuel flow and affect engine performance. Use a winter-grade diesel fuel or a fuel additive designed to prevent fuel gelling. Regularly monitor fuel quality and maintain fuel tanks in insulated areas, if possible.

    Battery Maintenance: Cold temperatures can reduce battery performance and make it more challenging to start the engine. Ensure the batteries are fully charged and in good condition. Consider using cold-weather batteries or battery blankets to maintain optimal battery temperature. Regularly check and clean battery terminals to prevent corrosion, which can hinder electrical connections.

    Engine Lubrication: Use an appropriate low-temperature engine oil with a winter viscosity rating that meets the manufacturer’s specifications. Cold temperatures can cause oil to thicken, making it difficult for the engine to start and for proper lubrication to occur. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for oil type and viscosity grade based on the expected ambient temperature.

    Block Heater: If available, use a block heater to keep the engine block warm. This device keeps the coolant and engine components at a suitable temperature, making it easier to start the engine in cold weather. Ensure the block heater is properly installed and functioning correctly.

    Regular Maintenance: Perform regular maintenance tasks specific to cold weather conditions. This includes checking and replacing fuel and oil filters, inspecting and cleaning air intake systems, and ensuring proper coolant levels and antifreeze concentration. Regularly inspect the engine components for any signs of wear or damage that may affect cold-weather performance.

    Protection from the Elements: Protect the diesel engine fire pump from harsh weather conditions by housing it in a climate-controlled enclosure or installing insulation around critical components. This helps maintain the engine’s temperature and prevent freezing of fluids and components.

    Operating Practices: During operation, allow the engine to warm up before applying heavy loads or demanding high RPMs. This allows the engine and its components to reach the optimal operating temperature gradually. Avoid sudden and aggressive acceleration or deceleration, as it can stress the engine and lead to potential damage in cold conditions.

    Remember to consult the manufacturer’s recommendations and follow their specific instructions for starting and operating the diesel engine fire pump in low-temperature environments. Additionally, regular training and familiarization with the fire pump system are crucial for firefighters and operators to handle and operate the equipment effectively and safely in all weather conditions.
