Fire accidents can take anybody unawares and cause a colossal loss of lives and property. An automated fire safety system is therefore indispensable. Fire-fighting pumps have a well-established reputation for preventing major fire accidents. According to NPFA, fire sprinklers effectively control 96% of fires in which they operate. VEMC is the leading Kirloskar Fire Pump Dealer and in this blog, we give you 5 reasons why having a robust fire-fighting pump is necessary.
1. Enhanced fire-fighting capabilities and fast response time
In the unfortunate incident of a fire breakout, time is highly critical. A minute here or there could lead to a life-and-death situation. A fire-fighting pump has immediate activation on the outbreak and fast extinguishing by cooling and removal of oxygen. The sprinklers activate automatically and VEMC’s MSMO pumps can execute vertically and horizontally, making them highly reliable and effective.
2. Ability to handle high-pressure requirements in fire-fighting situations
If you are using VEMC’s MSMO pumps, rest assured, you will certainly be able to meet the high-pressure expectations. As expert Kirloskar fire-fighting pump dealers, we can assure you of the highest possible head and flow rates. This is due to the multiple impellers that our pumps have, which typically provide a head of up to 500 metres and a flow rate of about 700 cubic metres/hour.
Essential for compliance with fire safety regulations and insurance requirements
As any Kirloskar Authorised Dealer will tell you, fire-fighting pumps have become the new norm in fire safety regulations across the world. In many countries, these are mandatory equipment to comply with laws. Fire insurance companies may even refuse to provide cover unless you have fire-fighting pumps installed.
Increased protection for property and life
Your property is the result of years of hard work, and the lives of your workers and colleagues are too precious to lose in a fire accident. When you invest in firefighting pumps, therefore, you are not just buying a piece of safety equipment, but also some peace of mind. By limiting the spread of fire, these firefighting pumps can prevent widespread damage to assets and raw materials. This is all the more critical for those areas of the buildings which have limited access to fire hydrants or sources of water. Reliable firefighting pumps simply mean increased protection for both life and property.
Cost-effective investment in long-term fire safety measures
If you’re purchasing Kirloskar’s MSMO pumps for firefighting, you have made the most farsighted investment in fire safety. These pumps are highly affordable upfront but apart from that, their energy efficiency further reduces your running costs. No extensive piping system or storage tanks are required either. All in all, these pumps are the most cost-effective investment in long-term fire safety measures.
