Jockey Pump

A Jockey Pump is a critical component of a fire fighting system designed to maintain constant pressure within the fire sprinkler or hydrant piping network. It automatically compensates for minor pressure drops caused by leaks or temperature changes, preventing unnecessary operation of the main fire pump. Compact, energy-efficient, and reliable, jockey pumps ensure the fire protection system remains pressurized and ready at all times. Ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial buildings, a properly installed jockey pump improves system lifespan, reduces power consumption, and ensures compliance with fire safety standards.

The Jockey Pump works as a pressure-maintaining pump in fire protection systems, operating automatically based on preset pressure levels. When system pressure drops slightly, the jockey pump activates to restore pressure without engaging the main fire pump. This reduces wear and tear on larger pumps and minimizes false alarms. Jockey pumps are commonly used in fire sprinkler systems, fire hydrant systems, and foam-based fire protection setups. Available in horizontal or vertical configurations, they are engineered for silent operation, low power consumption, and long service life.
Designed for continuous readiness, the Jockey Pump ensures optimal pressure stability in fire fighting pipelines. It plays a preventive role by addressing minor pressure losses before they escalate into system faults. Manufactured using durable materials and precision-engineered components, jockey pumps deliver consistent performance even under demanding conditions. These pumps are easy to install, require minimal maintenance, and integrate seamlessly with fire alarm and control panels. Suitable for high-rise buildings, factories, hospitals, data centers, and commercial complexes, jockey pumps are essential for maintaining fire safety compliance.
