Jockey Pump
A Jockey Pump is a little pump used to keep pressure in the sprinkler pipes of a fire sprinkler system. This is done to make sure that if a fire sprinkler is turned on, there will be a pressure drop, and the jockey pump will turn on to counteract this pressure drop.
Fire Jockey Pump
A Fire Jockey Pump is a small pump used in fire protection systems. Its main job is to keep the water pressure steady in the pipes. This helps the big main pump, which provides water during a fire, work properly when needed.
Why it’s important:
-
Keeps Pressure Steady: The jockey pump makes sure the pressure in the system stays at the right level by handling small pressure changes.
-
Supports the Main Pump: It helps by handling minor pressure issues, so the big main pump doesn’t have to turn on too often. This the main pump last longer
Operation
-
Automatic Activation: The jockey pump is typically activated automatically by a pressure switch or sensor. When the system pressure drops below a certain threshold, the jockey pump turns on to restore pressure. Once the pressure is back to normal, the pump shuts off.
-
Sizing: Jockey pumps are usually the main fire pumps. Their capacity is designed to be just enough to handle minor pressure adjustments and maintain system pressure without overwhelming the system.

The temperature rating of the sprinkler is indicated by the colors. The maximum ambient ceiling temperature and the occupancy classification must be taken into account when choosing the sprinkler with the appropriate temperature rating. Sprinklers are actuated by heat, so if the maximum ambient ceiling temperature isn’t taken into account, it could result in unintentional sprinkler activity. The frame arm, deflector, or coating material will typically have some color indicating the temperature rating if the sprinkler does not have a glass bulb.
