Turbine Fire Pumps: What They Are & Why You Need Them

Image
  What is a Turbine Fire Pump? A turbine fire pump, often in the form of a  vertical turbine fire pump , is a type of centrifugal pump designed to supply high-flow, high-pressure water to fire protection systems (such as sprinkler systems, hydrants, hose reels, and standpipes) where the water source may be below the pump level (for example, a well, suction pit or underground reservoir). Key features include: Vertical configuration: The pump shaft runs vertically down through a column (or line shaft) into the water source. Multi-stage design: Multiple impellers are mounted along the shaft so that high heads (pressure) and flows can be achieved. Ability to draw water from lower levels or suction lift conditions (i.e., the water supply is below the pump). Built to comply with fire safety standards such as National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 20), Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listing, and Factory Mutual (FM) approval. What Are They Used For? Turbine fire pumps  are us...

What is a Vertical Turbine Fire Pump & Its Uses

Image
  A   vertical turbine fire pump  is a type of fire protection pump that draws water from sources that are below the pump level — e.g., wells, underground tanks, reservoirs, ponds — and delivers it at the needed pressure for firefighting systems (sprinklers, hydrants, etc.). Some of their key characteristics & uses: Feature Why It Matters / Where It’s Used Pump impellers submerged  below water level Ensures the pump remains primed; less risk of losing prime. Good where water level fluctuates. Multi-stage design To achieve high pressures (head) as required by NFPA or local fire codes. More stages = more potential pressure. Versatile drive options  (electric motor, diesel engine) Diesel is critical for backup if power is lost. Many fire codes require backup power/drives. Used in large installations : high-rise buildings, industrial complexes, remote or offshore installations, water supply from deep wells or bodies of water. Benefits include: Reliable supply ev...
