Jockey Fire Pump

Overview

A Jockey Fire Pump is a small, automatically controlled pump designed to maintain pressure in a fire protection piping system to prevent unnecessary operation of the main fire pump. It compensates for minor pressure drops caused by system leakage or routine fluctuations, ensuring the fire protection system remains fully pressurized and ready for emergency activation. Typically electric-powered and operating at low flow rates, jockey pumps are essential components in fire pump systems for commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and high-rise structures, contributing to system efficiency, longevity, and compliance with fire safety standards.

Utility Priority

The Jockey Fire Pump serves a critical utility in maintaining constant pressure within a fire protection system, preventing false starts and unnecessary wear on the main fire pump. Its priority is to automatically compensate for minor pressure drops due to small leaks or thermal expansion, ensuring the system remains pressurized and ready to respond instantly in the event of a fire. Commonly used in commercial buildings, industrial facilities, high-rise developments, and hospitals, jockey pumps are essential for extending the life of the main fire pump and ensuring overall system efficiency and regulatory compliance.
