Fire Pumps - Auxiliary Machinery and Engine Room
Marine fire pumps supply seawater to the vessel's fire main, hydrants, hoses and fixed firefighting systems. Installations typically include main fire pumps and an independently powered emergency fire pump.
ProShipWorks provides end-to-end support to source and supply Fire Pumps for marine vessels, ship operators, industrial facilities, maintenance teams and procurement departments.

Standards, Certifications & Class Approval
Review the available standards and approval information relevant to the product. Actual certification, material traceability, inspection and classification requirements depend on the product type, intended application and purchasing specification.
| Applicable Standards & Certification | Shipboard fire-pump capacity, pressure, redundancy and emergency-pump arrangements are governed primarily by SOLAS Chapter II-2 and the IMO International Code for Fire Safety Systems, Chapter 12. Electrical equipment and installation may also follow applicable IEC 60092 requirements. |
|---|---|
| Class Approval | Fire-pump selection and installation are normally reviewed by the vessel's classification society, such as DNV, ABS, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas or ClassNK. Product certification or type approval depends on pump design, drive arrangement, flag requirements and vessel class rules. |
Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information
| Installation Notes | Size the pump from the approved fire-main hydraulic calculation. Provide accessible suction and discharge isolation, non-return protection, pressure indication and priming where required. Install the emergency fire pump outside the main machinery space with independent power and compliant suction arrangements. |
|---|---|
| Maintenance Tips | Test pumps regularly at rated operating conditions, record discharge pressure and inspect seals, bearings, couplings, strainers and valves. Confirm automatic or remote starting, maintain diesel starting systems where fitted, and flush or protect seawater-wetted parts against corrosion. |
| Safety Notes | Isolate electrical or diesel power and depressurize the system before maintenance. Do not run a non-self-priming centrifugal pump dry. Keep emergency-pump access clear and verify that relief arrangements prevent excessive fire-main pressure. |
