Jockey Pump System

A Jockey Pump System is a small-capacity pump used in fire protection systems to maintain the required pressure in the fire-fighting piping network. It automatically starts when there is a minor pressure drop, preventing unnecessary starting of the main fire pump.

Jockey pumps are commonly used in fire sprinkler systems, hydrant systems, industrial plants, commercial buildings, warehouses, and high-rise buildings. They help maintain stable system pressure and ensure that the main fire pump remains ready to operate during an actual fire emergency.
