Jockey Pump​

In Avinash Fire Protection Systems we have good quality Jockey Pumps that can be used to maintain the pressure in the fire protection systems to remain ready and reliable in case of emergencies. One of the most important parts of a sprinkler and hydrant system is a jockey pump that will make up for small fluctuations in pressure and will avoid false alarms and unnecessary use of the main fire pump.

Our pumps are designed to be precision and efficiency based hence giving the steady and stable pressure in fire suppression networks. They suit well industrial plants, commercial buildings, warehouses and other potentially hazardous areas where it is important to keep the systems at the optimum pressure as a measure of safety and compliance with regulatory standards. This pump enhances the total response time of the main fire pump by keeping the fire system pressurized so that the rapid delivery of water can be used when a fire is identified.

Our pumps are made using tough materials and are therefore meant to work with regularity and in severe environmental conditions. They are small and thus easy to install and incorporate with the existing fire protection systems such as sprinkler systems, hydrants, and control panels. These pumps are in stock, and can be used in new installations or in retrofitting.

In Avinash Fire Protection Systems, we are concerned with providing solutions that are considered reliable, efficient and easy to maintain. Our pumps do not demand a lot of maintenance, and they will maintain their usual performance, and this will give the facility managers a sense of assurance that their fire protection system will perform optimally at all times.

By investing into our Pump, you can be assured that your fire safety system is always pressurized, reliable and available to react in case of an emergency and safeguard life, property and other important valuable assets.

Product Description

Avinash Fire Protection Systems, we will be determined to offer quality fire protection services that are safe, reliable, and fully adhere to international standards. The Jockey Pump is one of our most important products, which is aimed at the constant maintenance of pressure within fire protection systems such as sprinkler and hydrant networks. This pump also regulates the pressure variations to ensure that the main fire pump is run efficiently and only when necessary which reduces wear and unnecessary running.

Key Role in Fire Protection

A fire pump jockey is an essential component in any modern fire suppression system. It mainly acts to fill in small pressure drops within the piping system that results due to small leaks or temperature changes. The lack of a pump means that even a small decrease in pressure would activate the main fire pump and add undue stress, which would use more energy. This pump has a constant pressure to safeguard the system as well as the facility so that it is consistent and reliable during an emergency.

This pump fire operates continuously but at low flow, keeping the system pressurized and ready for instant activation. Quick responsiveness to changes in pressure ensures that the main fire pump can only activate when an increased flow and pressure are needed which makes it an efficient and cost effective fire protection solution.

Technical Performance and Specifications

The pump under discussion is a vertical multistage centrifugal pump that is most effectively used in the fire protection system. With six stages, the pump provides a high pump pressure, ensuring consistent water delivery across sprinkler and hydrant systems. Her discharge rate of 10.8 m 3/hr (180 LPM) and a discharge head of 80 meters give it the capacity to fit medium and high-rise facilities where constant pressure is paramount.

The suction and delivery sizes of the pump are 50 x 50 mm, which will enable it to fit well with the existing systems. Its closed type of impeller design offers effective flow and minimum wear and the SIC/Carbon mechanical seal offers leakage prevention which is more reliable in constant running. This is made of a cast iron base, an industrial plastic impeller, a stainless steel shaft, and an SS 410 bowl, making it tough and thus lasting and working even in extreme circumstances.

Motor and Power Details Of Jockey Pum

This pump has a 10 HP, 2900 RPM, 3-phase, 415 V, 50 Hz AC vertical flange-mounted motor with a vertical flange design to provide dependable power to the system to maintain pressure. The motor is made to operate in ambient temperature water, hence it can be used in most of the industrial and commercial applications. It is designed in a compact structure and installed easily and the color-coated finish is designed to be corrosion-resistant as well as long-term.

Operational Advantages

A fire jockey pump offers several advantages over standard fire systems:

  • Maintains system pressure continuously without triggering the main fire pump unnecessarily

  • Reduces wear and tear on the primary fire pump, extending its lifespan

  • Enhances the reliability of fire suppression systems in critical facilities

  • Provides stable pressure for efficient sprinkler and hydrant operation

  • Low maintenance requirements due to robust design and high-quality materials

Additionally, the pump is engineered to maintain pump pressure in KG, ensuring compliance with fire safety standards and providing predictable performance for safety personnel.

Applications Across Industries

This Pump can be applied in a broad application where pressure stability on fire protection systems is critical:

  • Industrial plants with complex sprinkler networks

  • Warehouses and storage facilities requiring rapid fire response

  • Commercial complexes, shopping malls, and public buildings
