GPD series Tornatech Fire Pump Controller for Diesel Engine Fire Fighting Pumps

UL/ FM Tornatech Controller For Fire Fighting Systems

Diesel engine fire pump controllers are designed to automatically start a diesel engine driven fire pump upon
detection of a pressure drop in the fire protection system. A diesel engine fire pump controller provides automatic &
manual starting and stopping. An automatic start is controlled by a pressure transducer or by remote automatic
devices as deluge valve. A manual start is controlled by remote manual button or by controller pushbutton. The
automatic shutdown option provides a 30-minutes automatic stop after automatic start once all starting causes have
returned to normal. The diesel engine fire pump controller includes two battery chargers to maintain the engine
batteries continuously charged.

Types of Diesel Engine Fire Pump Controllers

METHODS OF STARTING

AUTOMATIC START
The controller will start automatically on low pressure detection by the pressure sensor when pressure drops below
the cut-in threshold. The controller must be in automatic mode.
MANUAL START
The engine can be started by pressing the CRANK 1 or and/or CRANK 2 push button, regardless of the system
pressure, when the Main Selector switch is in the HAND position. The Fuel Solenoid Valve will open as soon as a
CRANK button is pressed and will remain in this state.
REMOTE MANUAL START
The engine can be started from a remote location by momentarily closing a contact of a manual push button.
REMOTE AUTOMATIC START, DELUGE VALVE START
The engine can be started from a remote location by momentarily opening a contact connected to an automatic
device. The controller must be in automatic mode.
SEQUENTIAL START
In case of multiple pump application, it may be necessary to delay the starting of each motor in case of water
pressure drop to prevent simultaneous starting of all motors.

FLOW START, HIGH ZONE START
The controller can be started by opening/closing a contact on the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input.
WEEKLY START
The engine can be started (and stopped) automatically at the preprogrammed time.
TEST START
The motor can be started automatically for a preprogrammed time by pressing the run test button.

METHODS OF STOPPING

MANUAL STOP
Manual stop is done by pressing the STOP push button. Note that pressing the stop push button will stop the
engine only if all starting causes have disappeared.
AUTOMATIC STOP
The automatic stop is possible only after an automatic start and this function must be activated. When this function
is enabled, the motor is automatically stopped 30 minutes after the restoration of the pressure (above the cut-out
threshold) given that no other run cause is present.
FLOW STOP, HIGH ZONE STOP
If the controller has been started by the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input and that the signal has returned to
normal, the motor will be stopped given that no other run cause is present.
EMERGENCY STOP
The emergency stop is always possible in any running condition and is done by positioning the main selector switch
to the OFF position.

office of  CNP NM Fire-fighting System Co.,Ltd (Hereinafter referred to as NM Fire). SPICO mainly resp-

onsible for product promotion，export declaration and foreign exchange collection of overseas orders.NM

Fire  is the subsidiary of Nanfang Zhongjin Environment Co.,Ltd, which islocated in Hunan Changsha

Economic and Technological Development Zone, mainly produceand sell Diesel engine &Motor fire pump

groups ,controllers and fire pumps which are in accordance with domestic & international standards and have

gotten related certifications .

With the help of multi-national engineers with more than 20 years of professional experience, the NMFIRE

technical team fully understands the technical requirements of fire fighting systems. They have overcome

difficulties, conquered technical aspects, created China's first in this industry and opened up a new market

for China's fire fighting research andtechnology.

The company’s mission is to protect the community fire safety, in line with the spirits of “integrity,

win-win”,glad to provide high cost-effective products and high-quality service for our customers.

Fire fighting is the last protection for life and property. These include strict technical, quality and testing requirements

for fire fighting equipment that are specified in the UL/FM product standard.

Under the premise of fully learning and understanding these standards, our company has invested huge sums of money

and energy in research and development of new products. Many innovative technologies have been developed through

product R&D. The pumps and diesel engines have reached the level of first class in the world. The research and

development of these two critical products has put an end to the long history in the domestic marketplace of taking

non-certified ordinary water pumps and diesel engines and using them in life safety applications. This has also completely

changed the domestic technology level of this industry and has allowed NM FIRE to lead the market

Start by meeting the customer obvious needs, follow by continuously deepening and exploring potential customer demand,

meanwhile, plant the philosophy into our soul.
