A. FIRE PUMP
I. INSTALLATION & PREPARATIONS
1.1 Fire Pump installed in the proper direction of flow in relation to the system (sunction and discharge
orientation)
1.2 Make sure that the Fire Pump and Jockey Pump is properly anchored and stable
1.3 Put pressure gauge before and after the Main Fire Pump as provided in the provision points.
1.4 Jockey Pump should be installed in the proper direction of flow in relation to the system
(sunction and discharge orientation)
1.5 Put pressure gauge before and after the Jockey Pump as provided in the provision points.
1.6 Install water valve before and after the flow meter. Before the flow meter suggested distance of gate
valve must be 2 feet water valve before the flow meter will be use for isolation and water valve after
flow meter will be use for throttle.
1.7 Inlet and Outlet pipes going in and out of the Fire Pump must be properlyt supported with braces,
brackets, and anchored strongly to resist vibration during activation and functioning of Fire Pump
1.8 Fire tank will be filled with water. For testing purposes using by-pass testing or water return to fire
tank there should be enough and sufficient water storage. It it is a vertical type of FIre Pump it must
have 2 feet higher than the highest suction bowl. It itis is a horizontal type it must have 3/4
high of the total height of the Fire Tank or 3 feet high from the float valve.
1.9 At least no leaking of sunction pipe line from the storage tank going to the Fire Pump and Jockey Pump
1.10 If the Main Fire Pump is a Vertical Turbine Type prepare 3 liters of Motor Engine Oil SAE 2000-40 AP SF/CD
1.11 Pump room is clean and free from any builder's debris, food water, etc. allowing reasonable access
1.12 Pump room has adequate cooling & ventilation to avoid moisture
1.13 Pump room should have sufficient light luminaries and is always available.
1.14 Water Inside the Fire Tank is clean and free from any solid particles.
1.15 Entire pump assembly base securely anchored with foundation bolts of suitable size embedded
in the concrete floor or concrete pad
1.16 All piping works (system and within pump room) are hydro-tested Free from any leaks & ready for testing
1.17 Entire system has been bled of all air to avoid water hammer (For close loop system such as
fire protection& booster pump)
1.18 All witness personnel's, owners representative, contractors and Maintenance will be present
during actual testing and commissioning
1.19 Discharge pipe for each pump with appropriate size and numberof valves such as gate valve and check
vavle should be installed
1.20 Sunction and Discharge sytem piping supports should be anchor installed near to but independent
of the pump assembly
1.21 Essentric reducer installed on the pump suction side if suction pipe is larger than the suction diameter
of pump (for positivesuction only)
1.22 Gate valve installed close to pump on the suction side of the pump (for positive suction only)
1.23 Foot valve installed in the suction line (for negative suction only)
1.24 Concentric increaser installed on the pump discharge side, if discharge pipe is larger than the
discharge diameter of the pump
1.25 Any check valve is installed in the proper direction
1.26 Designate representative to whom we will instruct and teach how to operate the Fire Pump.
1.27 It it is an engine driven pump fill diesel on the fuel tank and put distilled water on the batteries and
engine oil to the main engine.
1.28 Sensing line should have inverted check valve space 5 feet interval.
Drill center hole not more than 2.5mm2. This is to prevent pressure sensor failure by the flow surge.
Individual sensing line for fire pump and jockey pump.
1.29 Flushing system pipe line
1.30 Put a pressure gauge in the sensing line drain pipe to compare the pressure sensor reading accuracy
of the controller
1.31 Put individual pipe sensing line for the Fire Pump & Jockey Pump and inject before the Alarm Check Valve.
1.32 For Engine Driven Fire Pump put shade / roof on Pump Controller and Engine Controller.
1.33 We suggest to have the suction pipe one(1) inch bigger to the suction diameter
of the Fire Pump & Jockey Pump
II. ELECTRICAL AND CONTROL PANEL
2.1 There sould be permanent and sufficient power supply available to our Fire Pump and Controllers
2.2 Put sufficient luminaries to light up the pump room during testing and commissioning
2.3 Voltage Power supply constant, normal and within proper range (does not fluctuate before and /or
during and /or after start up.)
2.4 Put electrical wire inside metal/conduit tubing connected to the Fire Pump motor and Fire Pump Controller
2.5 Prepare data settings for the cut in and cut off of our Fire Pump and Jockey Pump
2.6 Electrical wire must be ready and put inside the conduit especially for the wire from the Fire Pump
Controller to the Pump Motor and the wire from the Jockey Pump Controller to the Jockey Pump motor
so that the technician will immediately do the connection and termination.
2.7 Make sure that the electrical wire from the Main panel board Power supply is already
connected/terminated. Our technician will be the one who will connect/terminate on the side of the
Fire Pump Controller
2.8 Control Panel properly installed
2.9 Appropraite number and size of line side arrives (from Main Breaker to Control Panel) installed in
approved conduits & connectors with supports and brackets
2.10 Appropraite number and size of terminal lugs terminated and installed in both ends of the line side wires
2.11 Appropraite number and size of load side wires (from Control Panel to motor)
Appropraite size of terminal lugs terminate and installed in both ends of load side wires
I certifiy the above items are completed and were checked at the job site and the pump equipment is ready for a
start up
