Diesel engine fire pump unit is a kind of pump equipment that is widely used in fire protection, and it is more suitable for mobile work in fire pumps. In fact, it is driven by a diesel engine connected to the pump head of the fire pump. Compared with motor drive, it can be used in the field, mines, and places lacking power supply. It is also called a diesel engine pump or a diesel engine fire pump unit.

The electric pump of the EDJ fire pump group is the main pump, the diesel engine pump is the backup pump, and the jockey 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 electricity from the The signal from the contact pressure gauge will start the diesel engine pump within 5 seconds, and reach the rated working condition within 20 seconds to ensure the normal operation of the fire extinguishing work.

Fire pump components:
1. Diesel pump: the flow rate is the same as that of the electric pump. It connects pump sets with highly elastic couplings or universal joints.
2. Pipeline supplementary pressure pump: vertical, small flow, higher lift than electric or diesel pumps.
3. Control panel: Automatically control the water pump with overload and overcurrent protection.
4. Accessories: suction pipe, discharge pipe with flange, battery, gate valve, check valve, flexible expansion joint, pressure switch, pressure gauge, base, etc.

Safety precautions include proper training for operators, ensuring adequate ventilation when using gasoline or diesel-powered pumps, using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), and following manufacturer’s guidelines for operation and maintenance. It’s also important to have a clear understanding of local regulations and requirements for outdoor fire pump installations.
