Selection Guidance

To select the appropriate XBD-W Series horizontal single-stage fire pump, please provide the following information:

• Required flow rate (L/s)
• Required pressure (MPa or bar)
• Fire protection system type (hydrant, sprinkler, water mist)
• Building type and occupancy classification
• Available installation space and pump room dimensions
• Available voltage and frequency
• Required duty point on the pump curve
• Applicable fire protection standards and codes

Final model selection should be confirmed according to the actual duty point, system requirements and applicable fire protection standards.

Installation and Maintenance

Installation Guidance

The pump should be installed on a rigid, level foundation with adequate clearance for inspection and maintenance access. The suction and discharge piping must be independently supported to prevent load transfer to the pump flanges.

Pre-Start Inspection

Before starting the pump, confirm the following:

• Pump is securely mounted and level
• Suction and discharge piping connections are complete and leak-free
• Pump casing is properly filled and primed
• Motor wiring is correct and terminals are secure
• Rotational direction matches the arrow indicated on the pump casing
• All fasteners are properly tightened

Routine Maintenance

Regular inspection should include:

• Checking mechanical seals for leakage
• Monitoring motor bearing temperature and vibration levels
• Verifying that the pump maintains the required flow and pressure during test runs
• Cleaning strainers and filters when necessary
• Inspecting all pipeline connections for signs of wear or leakage

Available Configurations

• Flow rates customised per project requirements
• Pressure range customised per project requirements
• Motor powers customised per project requirements
• Various pump sizes for different duty points
• Electric motor or diesel engine drive options
• Integrated control panels with automatic start and monitoring

FAQs
