Fire Pumps<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Fire pumps increase water pressure and flow in the fire protection system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Common types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Electric motor\u2011driven fire pump<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Diesel engine\u2011driven fire pump<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Jockey pump (pressure maintenance pump)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Each pump has a specific role, which will be explained later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Fire Pump Controllers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Definition:<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong>A fire pump controller is an electrical or mechanical panel that automatically starts and stops the fire pump based on system pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Functions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Monitors system pressure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Starts pump when pressure drops<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Displays alarms and faults<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Allows manual operation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Controllers must always be kept in <strong>AUTO mode<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3.

immediate operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Automatic Operation During Fire<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When a sprinkler activates or a hose reel is opened:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>System pressure drops<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Jockey pump starts first<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If pressure continues to drop, main fire pump starts automatically<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Fire pumps <strong>do not stop automatically<\/strong> and must be stopped manually after the emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Manual Operation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fire pumps can be started manually from:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pump controller<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fire command center (if
