Signature and Date:
A. Inspections
- 1. Pump house/room proper temperature (at least 70 degrees F for diesels without engine heaters or 40 degrees for others)?
- 2. Ventilating louvers free to operate?
- 3. Suction, discharge and bypass valves open?
- 4. Piping free from leaks?
- 5. Suction and system pressure gauges normal?
- 6. Suction reservoir, if provided, full?
7. Electric Motor Driven Pumps
8. Diesel Engine Driven Pumps
f. Record engine running time meter reading.
A. Electric Motor Driven Pumps
1. Weekly Test Items
- 1. Pump started automatically?
Record starting pressure. (PSI)
Record suction & discharge pressure while running. (PSI)
6. Record time for motor to accelerate to full speed.
7. For reduced voltage or reduced current staring record time controller is on first step.
8. For automatic stop controllers, record time pump runs after starting.
B. Diesel Engine-Driven Fire Pumps
Record suction & discharge pressure while running.
6. Record time for engine to crank.
7. Record time for engine to reach running speed.
C. Steam Turbine-Driven Pumps
1. Record pump starting pressure, suction and discharge pressures while running,
5. Record steam pressure gauge reading.
6. Record time for turbine to reach running speed.
Annual pump test was run using the following method.
2. Annual Tests
- Method A:Discharge of flow through hose steams. Flow readings taken at each hose steam.
- Method B:Discharge through by-pass flow meter to drian or suction reservoir. Flow readings taken by flow meter.
- Method C:Discharge through by-pass flow meter directly returned to pump suction. Flow readings taken by flow meter.
NOTE: At least once every three years method A or B must be used.
