Fire Pump Arrangements at Industrial Facilities

Fire Pump Arrangements at Industrial Facilities describes fixed fire pump installations for industrial facilities from the viewpoint of the end users, fire protection engineers, loss prevention professionals, and those just entering a career in which decisions about fire pump installations must be made. Therefore, much background information is given for the necessary requirements and usefulness of a fire pump and the services that interface with it.

It is assumed that the reader is generally knowledgeable with hydraulics for pumps and pumping systems; therefore, this book is not concerned with those detailed design mathematical calculation aspects. Many excellent reference books are available which provide adequate guidance in the design of firewater installations to calculate water flow, pressure and other hydraulic features and concerns associated with fire pump installations.
