Fire Degree Non-UL Fire Pump System

Nile Shield provides the Fire Degree Non-UL Fire Pump System, a fully integrated firefighting pump system locally assembled in accordance with NFPA Code requirements. It is designed to meet the requirements of different projects in terms of water flow rate and operating pressure. Each pump set is assembled, calibrated, and tested to ensure reliable operation at the required capacity, with configurations available according to the specific operating requirements of each project.

The system consists of an integrated set of pumps and components required for the operation of a fire protection network, including a main electric fire pump, a standby diesel-driven fire pump, and a stainless-steel jockey pump. This configuration provides a complete pumping solution suitable for the requirements of various fire protection systems.

The pump set is equipped with three control panels with IP65 enclosures, high-quality electrical components, a suitable electric motor for the main pump, and a diesel engine for the standby pump. The package also includes a heavy-duty coupling, high-quality pressure switches, flexible wiring, and the necessary control and operating accessories.

The system also includes suction and discharge lines, valves, and associated pump fittings. According to the catalogue, the pump components are equipped with control fittings including OS&Y Gate Valves and NRVs, making the system a complete fire pump package rather than a standalone pump.

One of the main advantages of the Fire Degree Non-UL systems is their flexibility in selecting the required capacity. The catalogue specifies a flow range from 50 to 2,500 GPM. The configurations reviewed in the provided files include 250 GPM, 500 GPM, 750 GPM, and 1,000 GPM, allowing the appropriate configuration to be selected according to the project's required flow and pressure.

Selected system configurations use WE Single-Stage End-Suction Pumps. According to the catalogue, WE pumps are single-stage, non-self-priming horizontal pumps featuring an axial suction port and radial discharge port. Their performance and dimensions comply with ISO 2858, and their applications include fire protection systems, as well as water supply and pressure-boosting applications.

The WE pump range covers discharge capacities from 3 to 1,800 m³/h, with head ranges from 4 to 158 meters and motor ratings from 0.37 to 350 kW. These pumps also feature a back pull-out design, allowing the motor, bearing bracket, and impeller to be removed for servicing without disturbing the volute casing or the suction and discharge piping.

Higher-capacity configurations can use Split-Case Pumps instead of End-Suction pumps, as shown in the reviewed 1,000 GPM configuration. This allows the main pump type and size to be selected according to the required flow, pressure, and project operating conditions.

The system uses a Main Electric Fire Pump as the primary pumping unit, while the Standby Diesel Fire Pump provides a diesel-driven backup configuration. In addition, the package incorporates a Stainless-Steel Jockey Pump as part of the overall pump system. The catalogue specifically states that the package includes high-quality diesel engines, suitable electric motors, and a stainless-steel jockey pump.

A key feature of the Fire Degree system is that the complete pump set is assembled, calibrated, and fully tested to ensure operation at the required capacity before being commissioned for the project. The catalogue also states that testing and commissioning are provided free of charge under the offering described in the document.

The system provides flexibility in configuring the pump package according to individual project requirements. The required flow rate, pressure, pump type, motor, and associated equipment can vary from one project to another while maintaining an integrated package consisting of the main electric pump, standby diesel-driven pump, jockey pump, control systems, valves, and suction and discharge lines.

With a flow range extending up to 2,500 GPM, multiple pump configurations, and integrated control and operating components, the Fire Degree Non-UL Fire Pump System provides a flexible solution for fire protection projects requiring pump packages selected and configured according to specific operating requirements.

Overall, the system combines integrated assembly, multiple capacities, End-Suction or Split-Case pump configurations, electric and diesel-driven pumps, a stainless-steel jockey pump, control systems, and supporting accessories, together with testing and calibration before operation, providing a comprehensive fire pump package for a wide range of fire protection system requirements.
