Purpose and function of diesel engine fire pump

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.

Since the operation of the electric water pump is inseparable from electricity, and the power supply is often cut off at the scene of a fire accident or the power supply is automatically closed due to a fire. Even if we are equipped with a dual power supply switching device, it is really impossible to ensure that the power grid must be normal when the fire alarm signal comes.

The diesel engine fire pump is usually used as a backup facility, so it will only start automatically when the fire signal comes, and when the electric water pump fails or the power supply is cut off. When it has an ultra-low pressure start-up device, the matching electric water pump control cabinet should also have an ultra-low-pressure start-up device, and the lower limit of the two pumps should have a certain pressure difference. Of course, according to customer requirements, design a control system that is more suitable for customer needs.

    In modern fire protection systems, rapid response to fire incidents is crucial for safeguarding life and property. The Pressure Stabilization and Dual-Function Pump System integrates powerful pressure regulation with dual power sources to ensure that the fire protection system quickly responds and maintains a continuous, stable water supply during emergencies.

    This pump system is designed with two power sources—an electric motor and a diesel engine. When the primary power source fails, the diesel engine automatically starts, ensuring uninterrupted operation of the fire protection system even during power outages. Its pressure stabilization system automatically adjusts pressure during operation, ensuring stable water flow for fire suppression and preventing water interruptions due to insufficient or fluctuating pressure, ultimately improving firefighting efficiency.

    The intelligent control system further enhances the efficiency of the pump system, allowing users to monitor the system’s status in real-time through a touch panel. The system is easy to operate, and any malfunction is quickly detected and alarms are triggered, activating backup systems to effectively prevent emergency issues caused by system failure.

    This pump unit is ideal for applications in high-rise buildings, industrial zones, storage facilities, and other locations with high reliability requirements for fire protection, ensuring that the fire pump can be immediately activated and continue to supply water in any emergency.
