As the name implies, fire pumps are used in firefighting. They are divided into different types according to different classification methods. They are widely used in environmental protection, water treatment, firefighting and other departments to pump various liquids due to their fully sealed, leak-free, and corrosion-resistant characteristics. , It is the ideal pump for creating leak-free, pollution-free civilized workshops and civilized factories.

Problem one lower water or no water
1, electric pump reversal will lead to the pump doesn’t produce water.
2, the pump can’t normal water into the same can’t be water, check whether the water bay or check stopcock is blocked or stuck, pumping pipe if there’s a leak will also affect the water into the water.
3, the pump internal corridor of the wear and tear or connection out, check the pump and motor coupling wear and tear, loose and impeller is worn.

Problem two ：
1 、 Check the power force as described over, including connectors, switches, fuses,etc.
2. Check whether the impeller in the pump is jammed by foreign objects
3. A burnt motor will also affect the launch of the pump.

Problem three the water affair is big for a while and small for a while
1. still, the lack of depth down the well may beget this problem, If the pump is a submersible pump.
2. The inflow rate of the pump is too high and needs to be replaced with a suitable pump.

Mutistage EEJ Fire Pump Set comprises a combination of two sets electric motor driven pump and jockey pumps that supply for fire suppression systems.

Diesel engine fire pump is a kind of mechanical and electrical integration equipment that is directly driven by diesel engine fire pump and can start and complete water supply in a short period of time. The diesel engine pump set is driven by diesel and does not need an external power supply. Diesel engine water pumps are suitable for various fire water supply occasions such as agricultural irrigation, emergency rescue, smelting, hangars, petrochemical oil depots, power plants, liquefied gas stations, textiles, etc., especially where there is no electricity, When the power grid is not satisfactory, it is most suitable to choose a diesel engine to drive the water pump.

Three start-up functions for diesel engines:
1. Manual start function: manual and automatic interlocking can be completed through the transfer switch, and the manual start function can be realized:

2. Automatic manual function: allow to start three times. If the startup fails for three times, it will issue a “startup failure alarm” and automatically exit the startup state. After a successful startup, the time from startup to rated load is 5-10-15S (depending on the unit capacity);

3. Emergency manual direct start function: When the automatic control device fails, the emergency manual direct start function can be realized.

In the fire fighting pipeline pump, according to the different installation methods can be divided into vertical fire pumps and horizontal fire pumps, many people have questions about these two common pumps, what is the difference between the two? Shanghai Xizhiquan will explain the difference between horizontal and vertical pumps.

Obviously, different installation methods take up different space. Vertical pipeline pumps are installed vertically, covering a relatively small area, and vertical fire pumps do not require a foundation, while horizontal fire pumps need to be equipped with a base.

According to the different structures of the two pumps, it can be concluded that there is also a certain difference in the ease of maintenance of the two types of fire fighting pipeline pumps. The impeller of the vertical fire pump needs to be dismantled from top to bottom, which makes maintenance more difficult; the horizontal fire pump only needs to have the inlet pipe removed so that the impeller can be overhauled, which is relatively simple.

Due to the different inlet and outlet pipe directions, the pipeline connection between vertical and horizontal is also different. As the vertical pump is a bottom-up structure, while the horizontal fire pump is longitudinally arranged on the base, so the motor of the vertical pump and the pump body are connected in the form of sub-mouth connection, while the horizontal pump needs to use couplings to connect with the motor, and the horizontal pipeline pump needs to be corrected regularly.
