What are the requirements for the installation location of the fire pump?
The installation location requirements of the fire pump are as follows, which are expressed in points and summarized as follows:
I. Selection of installation location
Close to the water source: The fire pump should be installed as close to the water source as possible, such as a pool, a well or a municipal water supply pipeline, so that it can quickly absorb water and supply the fire extinguishing system in an emergency.
Distance from the fire source: The fire pump should be set at a distance from the fire source or potential fire source to ensure that it will not be directly affected by the fire when a fire occurs, and to ensure the normal operation of the fire pump.
Fire isolation: The fire pump room should be set in the fire isolation area, away from the storage area of flammable and explosive items, and should be no less than 30 meters away from the oil depot and no less than 50 meters away from the oxygen depot to prevent the spread of fire and explosion accidents.
II. Specific location layout
Independent rows: Fire water pumps should be arranged in independent rows, and should be no less than 50 meters away from the main body of the building to reduce the impact of fire on the fire pump and prevent the spread of fire.
Outdoor installation: The fire pump room should be located in an uninhabited place, and industrial rooms for the production and storage of flammable and explosive items should not be set up to reduce the risk of fire. At the same time, the door of the fire pump room should open outwards and be large enough to facilitate the entry and exit of personnel and equipment.
III. Height and indoor environment requirements
Height requirements: The ceiling height of the fire pump room should be no less than 2.8 meters, and the outdoor should be no less than 4.5 meters to ensure that there is enough space for the installation, operation and maintenance of the equipment.
Indoor environment: The fire pump room should be ventilated, dry, free of water accumulation, and dust accumulation to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and extend its service life. At the same time, special street lights should be installed indoors to ensure that staff can operate normally in a dark environment.
IV. Other requirements
Safety: The installation location of the fire pump should ensure the safety of the operator and avoid harm to personnel during operation.
Easy maintenance: The installation location of the fire pump should be convenient for daily maintenance and maintenance so that it can be repaired quickly when the equipment fails.
Compliance with specifications: The installation location of the fire pump should comply with the requirements of relevant national fire protection specifications and standards to ensure the safety and reliability of the fire protection system.
