There are many types of fire-fighting equipment. Fire hydrants and fire extinguishers are the most common types. The other is the fire pump, which is the heart of the fire-fighting system and plays an important role in pressurizing the fire-fighting system. Among the numerous fire pump products, fire pumps can be divided into multi-stage and single-stage fire pumps.

Electric fire pumps are mainly used for fire-fighting water supply in high-rise buildings, with a wide range of head and flow. Basically, the needs of most users can be met. The operation of electric fire pumps is relatively simple. The main function of electric fire pumps is water supply. If Insufficient water output will affect emergency use, so everyone should choose a matching and suitable fire pump model.

Firefighting pumps are often integrated with other firefighting equipment and systems, such as fire hoses, fire hydrants, sprinkler systems, and fire suppression systems. This integration ensures a coordinated and comprehensive approach to fire protection and emergency response, enabling firefighters to work together seamlessly to combat fires and protect communities.

Diesel engine fire pump is a kind of mechatronics equipment that is directly driven by diesel engine fire pump and can start and complete water supply in a short time. Diesel engine pump set is driven by diesel, no external power supply is required. Diesel engine pump is suitable for agricultural irrigation, emergency rescue, smelting, hangar, petrochemical oil depot, power plant, liquefied gas station, textile and other fire-fighting water supply occasions, especially in the absence of electricity, When the power grid is not satisfied, it is the safest choice to use a diesel engine to drive the water pump.

Answer: First of all, we must understand the relationship between pressure and lift: pressure = liquid density * g * lift (g = 0.981). In fact, the fire water pump can not only transport water, as long as the physical and chemical characteristics and water liquid are fine, but most of them transport water in daily life. The density of water is 1 ton per cubic meter. It can be obtained from the above formula : Pressure=1000*0.981*lift, pressure=0.981*lift, at this time the pressure and lift are almost the same, so whether we refer to lift or pressure, it can basically be regarded as a parameter.

Fire pumps for firefighting are mainly used to deliver water to pipelines, or to drain water in cities and industries, and to deliver water to high-rise buildings. This is similar to the need to deliver water due to some cold and hot cycles in long-distance situations. What kind of equipment is used.
