by Brent Ross

Pumping systems consume a significant portion of global electrical energy, accounting for nearly 20 percent of the energy used by electric motors and 25 to 50 percent of the total electrical usage in certain industrial facilities.

Ironically, pumping systems are rarely included in energy-efficiency calculations, even though pumps present such energy-savings potential. One could argue that mentioning “motor” or “variable speed drive” (VSD) is sufficient because these components indicate the greatest energy-savings opportunity in a pumping system.

Rapid industrialization is expected to positively impact the demand for fire pump in the near future. A fire pump is a part of water supply of fire sprinkler systems is run by using electric, diesel or steam. The fire pump is connected to either a static water source (tank, lake, and reservoir) or an underground water supply piping. Generally, it is connected with the public underground water supply pipe or any static water source such as tank, reservoir, and lake. The fire pump machine offers high pressure water flow to the fire sprinkler systems. The fire pump starts working when the fire sprinkler’s pressure drops below a certain set point (threshold). The number of fire pump should be installed depending on the occupancy hazard and the specific fire installation standard. Most of the fire pumps are listed, tested, certified by the accredited laboratories and authorized institutions. According to various research reports, the fire pumps market is anticipated to increase at a significant rate over the forecast period.
