Fire Pump

• The pump shall be designed for clean and clear room temperature water to be used in fire fighting application.
• The pump casing shall be of Cast Iron grade FG 260 as per IS 210 / ISO 186 with inline suction and discharge port.
• The pump casing shall have threaded ports near suction and delivery flanges for installing suction and discharge pressure gauges. The pump shall also have a threaded drain port at the bottom of casing for draining the pump during maintenance.
• The pumps shall have closed type impeller with Bronze LTB2 (standard supply) & Cast Iron FG 260 material.
• The pump induction motor shall have F class insulation and S1 duty. TEFC motors shall be with IP55 protection.
• The Motor shall be suitable for 3 phase, 415volts, 50 Hz power supply.
• The pump accessories Suction and discharge pressure gauge & Casing relief valve shall be supplied on request.
• The entire pump set including base plate and motor are to be painted RAL3002.

The LHCE fire pumpsets are used in fire-fighting applications for supplying water to fire hose reels, fire hydrants or sprinkler systems in areas which are prone to the hazards of fire. The typical applications are as follow:

• Commercial complexes and high rise buildings
• Petrochemical industries and Gas plants
• Oil and Gas on-shore & off-shore platforms
• Oil terminals
• Airports and ports
• Power stations and transformer stations
• Chemical industries
• Manufacturing plants
• Fire-work industries
• Warehouses/godown

• Installations of these pumps would ensure the safety of human life, buildings, expensive plants and equipments. FLHC fire pumpset shall be used only where a positive suction is provided as specified in NFPA20.
• Diesel engine as well as electric motor driven pump.
• Automatic air relief valve
• Suitable for space saving installation systems and retrofit applications
• The pump casing shall be of Cast Iron grade FG 260 as per IS 210 / ISO 186 with radial suction and discharge port, bronze casing wear ring, closed type dynamically balanced impeller, steel shaft.
• The pump shaft sealing shall either be by gland packing or by mechanical shaft seal of following construction, suitable for 16 bar pressure rating and water temperature from 0 to +90 deg C.
• The pump shall be long coupled with a totally enclosed fan cooled type induction motor, with F class insulation, S1 duty and IP55 protection, suitable for 3 phase, 415 volts, 50 and 60 Hz power supply.
• The split case construction shall enable removal and dismantling of the internal pump parts like ball bearings, wear rings, shaft seal and impeller without disturbing the motor & pipe work.

• Installations of these pumps would ensure the safety of human life, buildings, and expensive equipments and plants. FLBS fire pumpset shall be used only where a positive suction is provided as specified in NFPA20.
• Diesel engine as well as electric motor driven pump.
• Back pull-out design which simplifies inspection and maintenance without disturbing pipe work.
• The pump casing shall have material of construction of Cast Iron FG 260 (standard supply), CF8, CF8M, axial suction and radial discharge port, dynamically balanced impeller, steel shaft, stainless steel shaft sleeve.
• The pump shaft sealing will be by either gland packing or mechanical shaft seal suitable for 16 bar or 25 bar pressure rating based on shut off pressure of the pump.
• The pump shall have closed type impellers and bowl diffusers with material of construction stainless steel AISI 304 sheet metal, pump shaft shall be made of stainless steel AISI 316 material.
• The pump shall have back pull out design so as to enable the rotating parts to be removed and serviced without dismantling the suction and discharge pipe work.
