Fire Booster Pump

Description

A booster pump is a system consisting of one or more pumps and control equipment and is used to increase the pressure of water or fluid in water supply, fire, industrial and construction systems. These systems are especially used in high-rise buildings, industries, commercial complexes and even in irrigation systems.

How a fire booster pump works

How a fire pump booster works is designed to automatically respond to a fire and is a key component of a fire extinguishing system. Below, we will explain its operation in simple language and with a step-by-step process.

1. Standby Mode

Under normal conditions, the booster pump is off but ready to start working. The system pressure is maintained by a jockey pump to prevent the main pump from being turned on and off unnecessarily.

2. Detection of sudden pressure drop

When one of the fire extinguishing valves (such as hydrants or sprinklers) is activated, the system pressure drops rapidly. This pressure drop is detected by the pressure switch.

3. Main pump starts

When the pressure drop is detected, the main pump (electric or diesel) enters the circuit and starts pumping water at high pressure to feed the fire piping network.

4. Increase pressure and stabilize the system

The pump enters the system at a certain pressure (for example, 8 to 12 bar) so that all sprinklers and hydrants can operate properly. This pressure is adjusted and monitored by controllers and valves.

5. Continue to work until manual stop or power failure

The main pump remains active until the system pressure returns to normal or the operator manually turns it off. In advanced models, it is also possible to operate with a generator in the event of a power outage.

6. Return to standby mode

After the extinguishing operation is completed, the system returns to standby mode by closing the valves and increasing the pressure again, and only the Jockey pump remains active for a short time.
