Benefits
Versatility in performance and design
A fire suppression system normally uses two pumps; a main, robust fire pump that supplies large quantities of water to the fire piping system, and a small, low-flow, high-pressure pump that keeps the fire system pressurized in the absence of a fire and prevents unnecessary duplication. of the main fire pump. Jockey pumps are normally sized for 1% flow and pressure 10 to 20 PSI higher than the main fire pump.
