Fire pump control and starting method
The control and starting method of fire pumps is an important part of the fire protection system. By adopting advanced control technology and starting methods, the reliability and efficiency of the fire protection system can be greatly improved, providing strong protection for fire rescue.
1. Control method of fire pumps
The control methods of fire pumps mainly include manual control and automatic control. Manual control relies on manual operation. Although it is simple and direct, it may affect the rescue effect due to untimely operation in an emergency. Automatic control uses intelligent devices such as sensors or detectors to automatically start and stop fire pumps, greatly improving the response speed and safety.
In automatic control, dual pump automatic switching control is a common technology. It monitors the working status of the main pump in real time. Once the main pump fails, the standby pump will automatically start to ensure the continuous supply of fire water. This control method effectively improves the reliability and stability of the fire protection system.
2. Starting method of fire pumps
There are two main ways to start fire pumps: direct start and indirect start. Direct start is to start the fire pump by directly connecting the power supply, which is suitable for small fire protection systems or emergency situations. Indirect start starts the fire pump through intermediate devices such as controllers. The start parameters can be adjusted according to actual needs to achieve more refined control.
In terms of the self-starting of fire pumps, the self-starting technology of sprinkler pumps is particularly outstanding. It uses the principle that the glass ball of the pipe network nozzle explodes at high temperature to cause the water flow of the pipe network, thereby linking the alarm valve pressure switch to realize the automatic start of the sprinkler pump. This start-up method is not only fast and effective, but also can accurately reflect the fire situation and provide strong support for fire fighting.
