210, Pushpam Complex, 100 Ft. Anand Nagar Road, Opp. Seema Hall, Satellite - Ahmedabad Date : 7.12.2009 Document No.: MASS/434/G001 Revision : 0

HVWs panel is provided for the operation of Hydrant / Spray system pump at the time of fire. In the event of fire due to opening of Hydrant Valve / Deluge Valve; which will cause pressure drop in the fire water pipe line; when it reaches to pre set value it will be sensed by the pressure switch mounted on the water header and will give command to Start the Jockey pump through hard wired interlocking. But as the capacity of jockey pump is low and will not be able to maintain the system pressure it will result in further pressure drop; when the it will reach to another pre set value the same will be sensed by another pressure switch and will give command to start the Hydrant / Spray system main pump. The brief operation of Hydrant / Spray pump panel can be known from following. Hydrant / Spray Pump Panel is basically consisting following main components. Incoming Switch Fuse Unit Power Contactor Over Load Relay Aux. Contactors On Delay Timer Selector Switches etc.

Current measuring and voltage measuring circuits are provided for the measurement of current and voltage. The main accessories used for the same is CT, Ammeter, Volt Meter, Control Fuses (CF1, CF2 & CF3), Indication Lamps (R-Y-B), Volt Meter Selector Switch, Ampere Meter Selector Switch etc. Control supply for the panel is 230 VAC which is derived from ACDB. Please refer to the control circuit diagram. Control supply i.e. 230 VAC is available at terminals X1 and X2 from the supply is tapped through CF4 for the purpose of illumination and panel space heater. One power socket of 10Amp. Is also been provided for the maintenance purpose. Panel space heater circuit is consisting of Toggle Switch, thermostat, and space heater of 40 Watt. Illumination circuit is consisting of Door Switch (Limit Switch) and Illumination lamp.

Further control supply will be tapped through CS -1 (2 Pole, ON-OFF) and CF 5 (Back up Fuse). o o o o Control supply is taken in series through NC contact of Over Load Relay and Stop (NC Type) push button. So that the contactor will be cut-off in the event of overload or by Manual stop Auto Off Manual selector switch is provided for the selection of the mode of operation. In manual mode pump can be started through Push Buttons (Normally Open) In Auto Mode pressure drop will be sensed by pressure switch and the Normally open contact of pressure switch will become Normally closed type which will operate 1d1 (Aux. Start Contactor). Now one contact of 1d1 will complete the cycle in auto mode and start the Main Contactor 1C1, 1d2 and Illumination Lamp (Pump ON). 1d2 (Aux. contactor) is taken for interlocking with Jockey pump panel as Jockey pumps will be tripped automatically in case of starting of Main Fire Pump as there is no need to run jockey pump when Main Fire Pump starts. Pump OFF Indication is taken from normally closed contact of 1d2. Pump TRIP indication is taken from normally open contact of overload relay. On delay timer is also provided in the circuit for getting the feedback of pump running and pump fails to start and the same will be transmitted to Annunciation Panels. 230 VAC supply is also tapped from the SFU for providing the supply to Motor Space heater and it is taken through normally closed contact of Main Power contactor so that the power supply of motor space heater will be automatically cut off when Main contactor starts.
