This new size is available with Design Envelope technology, featuring connected intelligence, performance tracking and automated alerts to support more cost-effective maintenance and better occupant safety. Due to the managed “ramp-up” of output, there are no pressure spikes on startup, pipes are better protected, water delivery is ensured and the risk of water hammer is reduced.
Other features include reduced on-site work for power cabling; fewer PRVs and drain lines; elimination of safety issues related to supply pressure; and lower costs for design engineers, contractors and building owners.
“This new size of vertical in-line fire pump offers excellent performance in a key range of flow and pressure output. And with the addition of Design Envelope technology, customers can enjoy the security of performance tracking throughout the lifecycle of the pump,” said Michael DeMille, Global Offering Manager Fire Pumps.
