1. One-in-use, one-standby design: Redundancy assurance, stable operation

The “one-in-use, one-standby” configuration is a widely recommended safety architecture in modern fire protection systems. ZJ-BETTER has integrated this concept into its product design, configuring two independent electric pumps (main pump and standby pump). Through the intelligent control system, automatic switching and fault interlocking are achieved, ensuring that if one pump malfunctions, the other can immediately take over the operational task, thereby guaranteeing uninterrupted water supply. The main pump handles daily firefighting standby tasks, while the standby pump serves as a component for fault switching or regular rotation use, effectively distributing the operational load on the equipment. This design not only reduces the wear and tear risks associated with high-frequency operation of a single pump but also extends the overall lifespan of the equipment. For high-rise buildings, industrial facilities, and other locations with stringent requirements for continuous water supply, such redundant configurations are particularly essential. Additionally, ZJ-BETTER's “one active, one standby” pump set adopts an integrated modular installation structure, reducing the number of pipe connections and lowering the risk of leaks, further enhancing system safety and stability.

 

2. Intelligent control system: automatic start/stop, remote monitoring

The “intelligence” level of a fire pump system directly impacts response speed and system coordination efficiency. ZJ-BETTER's intelligent electrical control cabinet employs a PLC-based core control system with built-in logic programming to enable functions such as pressure-sensing automatic startup, primary/standby pump switching, operational record statistics, and fault warnings. The control cabinet supports communication protocols such as RS485 and Modbus, enabling data integration with building automation systems (BMS) and remote control of pump group start/stop status. The control panel is equipped with a high-definition display screen that shows real-time key data such as operating current, voltage, pressure, and temperature, while also featuring operation permission management to ensure authorized system access. Compared to traditional manual/semi-automatic fire pump systems, the ZJ-BETTER intelligent control cabinet significantly reduces response time, enhances system reliability, and improves operational convenience. For overseas customers, we offer multi-language interfaces and support remote debugging and remote fault diagnosis functions, greatly improving the efficiency of international project implementation.

 

3. High-efficiency pumps: powerful performance and stable operation

The pump body is the “power core” of the entire system. ZJ-BETTER's self-developed electric fire pump adopts an efficient hydraulic model design, with the impeller and volute optimized through CFD simulation, significantly improving the pump's operational efficiency. Depending on project requirements, we offer different structural options such as single-stage end-suction pumps and horizontal multi-stage pumps, with head adjustable from 30 meters to 200 meters and flow rates ranging from 10 to 1,000 m³/h. The electric pump section uses motors from internationally renowned brands, featuring high power output, low-noise operation, and the ability to operate continuously for extended periods without overheating. The pump shaft and sealing components are made of high-temperature-resistant materials, ensuring stable water supply even under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions, with operational efficiency exceeding 80%, far surpassing industry averages. The entire pump system operates with minimal vibration and low noise, capable of stable operation in a 24/7 uninterrupted water supply fire testing environment, making it a typical high-performance, high-reliability industrial-grade solution.

 

4. International Standard Certification: Universal Across Multiple Countries, Globally Compatible

ZJ-BETTER has deep expertise in international markets and a thorough understanding of building codes and fire safety standards across various countries. This series of single-use and standby electric fire pumps has obtained certifications from multiple countries and regions, including but not limited to:

 

NFPA 20 (National Fire Protection Association Standard)

 

CE Certification (European Union Market)

 

ISO 9001/ISO 14001/ISO 45001 Management System Certification

 

Regardless of whether customers are from the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa, or Europe, we provide a complete export documentation package, including English installation manuals, test reports, nameplate information, material lists, etc., to ensure smooth local acceptance of the project.

 

5. Compact structure, easy installation

The ZJ-BETTER electric fire pump equipment emphasizes “modularization” and “skid-mounted design” in its structural design. The entire system is fully installed, piped, wired, pressure-calibrated, and tested before leaving the factory. Customers can put the equipment into use immediately after connecting it to the pipeline network and power supply. The pump base uses corrosion-resistant steel structure, offering excellent pressure resistance and vibration damping performance. For projects with limited pump room space, we provide customized compact layout design solutions, integrating the pump, valves, and electrical control cabinet into a single skid, saving over 30% of floor space. The pump's outlet and inlet ports use internationally standard flanges, facilitating connection to existing systems. The entire installation process can be completed within 24 hours, significantly improving project efficiency.

 

6. Energy-efficient and environmentally friendly, with low operating costs

Although fire pumps are not equipment that runs 24/7, their standby energy consumption and maintenance costs are also key concerns for users. ZJ-BETTER achieves maximum energy savings by optimizing hydraulic design and intelligent control logic, ensuring the system operates only when needed. The control cabinet is programmed with functions such as “automatic startup upon pressure drop” and “automatic shutdown after stable operating pressure,” preventing unnecessary starts/stops and power waste. When equipped with a variable frequency control system, the motor speed can be adjusted according to flow requirements, enabling more precise energy consumption control. Additionally, the pump set features soundproofing and vibration reduction optimization design, reducing operational noise to below national Class II environmental standards, meeting the noise requirements of scenarios such as office buildings, hotels, and hospitals. The overall operating cost is reduced by 15%-25% compared to traditional systems.

 

7. Multi-scenario adaptability, wide engineering applications

This one-active-one-standby electric fire pump system has strong scenario adaptability and has been widely applied in various building and infrastructure projects. Typical application scenarios include:

 

Commercial office buildings and high-rise residential buildings

 

Large shopping malls, underground parking lots

 

Hospitals, schools, conference centers

 

Industrial parks, factories, and warehousing logistics centers

 

Petrochemical plants, power facilities, and port oil terminals

 

Tunnels, subways, and transportation hubs

 

Each project has different requirements for flow rate, head, voltage, and frequency. ZJ-BETTER supports customized solutions, including different pump types, electrical control logic programming, and communication interface protocols, to ensure the system is 100% compatible with project requirements.

9. Safety Design for Worry-Free Use  

When designing fire pump systems, ZJ-BETTER always prioritizes “safety and reliability” as the top principle. The control system features a triple protection mechanism: motor overload protection, pressure anomaly alarm, and phase loss/low voltage protection, ensuring the equipment is not damaged by sudden incidents. If operational abnormalities occur during pump operation (such as bearing overheating or sudden pressure spikes), the control system automatically shuts off power and triggers an audible and visual alarm. All pump units undergo over 8 hours of operational testing before shipment to ensure actual performance aligns with design parameters. Safety is not merely a technical specification; it is the utmost respect for users' lives and property. ZJ-BETTER products have successfully addressed multiple fire incidents worldwide, effectively supporting the fire extinguishing system's critical task of providing water supply in the first instance.
