Fire Control Panels: Essential for Facility Safety

Fire protection is a matter that should never be taken lightly. Each element of a fire suppression system plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of people and property in any building. One of these components, often underestimated, is the control panel. These panels act as the link between detecting a fire threat and the active response of the system.

Why are fire control panels essential?

A fire suppression system is akin to an organism, where pumps are the heart and the panels are the nervous system that decides when and how that heart should act. When it detects a decrease in water pressure, the panel makes an instantaneous decision to activate the pumps, ensuring a constant and adequate flow of water to combat the fire.

1. Jockey Pump Panel: These pumps, though small, have the vital task of maintaining constant pressure in the system. Upon detecting a minimal pressure drop, the panel automatically activates the jockey pump, preventing the activation of larger pumps and ensuring system efficiency.
   
2. Electric Pump Panel: A preferred choice for efficiency and lower maintenance, electric pumps are essential in many fire suppression systems. Panels for these pumps ensure their immediate activation upon detecting a significant decrease in system pressure, ensuring a constant water supply.
   
3. Gasoline and Diesel Pump Panel: In locations where electrical supply may be intermittent or in systems requiring redundancy, gasoline or diesel pumps are crucial. Their panels ensure that, in case of electrical failures, the system will continue operating without interruptions.
