The jockey pump is a small, multi-stage centrifugal pump designed to maintain pressure in a fire protection piping system at a preset high level. It operates automatically to compensate for minor pressure drops, preventing unnecessary startup of the main fire pump when there’s no fire demand.
Key Features:
- Maintains system pressure to avoid main pump activation
- Multi-stage design ensures high pressure with low flow
- Essential for ensuring fire system readiness
- Driven by an electric motor
- Supplied with standard pump controller
- Certification: CE
- Standard: NFPA 20 compliant
- Flow Range: 1 ~ 154 GPM
- Head Pressure: Up to 360 PSI
- Coating: Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) as per AWWA C550
