What are the differences between fire pumps and fire pump sets? To explain it simply, the fire pump set includes the fire pump, so let’s see their differences in detail.
Fire pumps are used in a wide range of applications. In addition to supplying water for fire piping systems, they can also be used for industrial water supply. Fire pumps can also be used for water supply and drainage systems in cities. There are other relatively long-distance water delivery tasks, such as heating boilers, bathroom boilers, multistage fire pump furnaces, and so on, which can be operated by means of fire pump systems.
Fire pumps used in different fields have different professional characteristics. For example, fire pumps in the general sense are installed on professional fire pump fire trucks or other special fire protection facilities for transporting water and foam solutions for fire fighting pump trucks. An unpowered fire pump is a fire pump without a power source. It uses a rotating impeller to transfer liquid.
Vehicle fire pumps and ship fire pumps are both unpowered fire pumps. The difference between them is that the Vehicle fire pump is installed on the chassis of the car, while the ship fire pump is installed on water tools such as ships. Fire pumps for engineering are more common. They are used in fire hydrant systems and foam fire extinguishing systems. The water supply fire pump refers to the fire pump specially used to provide fire water supply engineering. The foam fire pump is a special fire pump for foam fire extinguishing. Deep well fire pumps and submersible fire pumps are dedicated fire pumps for deep well pump projects and submersible pump projects respectively.
In addition, there are fire pumps with power sources. It is mainly composed of four main parts, a set of fire pumps, a power source for powering the fire pump sets, a control cabinet for controlling the fire pump sets and some other auxiliary devices. There are also many categories of fire pumps with different professional characteristics. For example, ordinary fire pumps, water supply fire pumps, deep well fire pumps, and submersible fire pumps.
