1.0 General
The object of this operative instruction is to define the execution modalities of the NFPA 20
standard test and compliance to project specification for diesel engine pump, electric pumps and
jockey pumps.
Tests will be described in the following sections:
1.1 DIESEL ENGINE PUMP, ELECTRIC PUMPS AND JOCKEY PUMPS FUNCTIONAL TEST
It will be performed according to as description at 4.0 Performance Test
(Witness tests with certificates release).
- NFPA20 std (hydraulic Institute 14.6) for Diesel Engine pump performance test (Q-H).
- NFPA20 std (hydraulic Institute 14.6) for Electric pumps performance test (Q-H-R).
- ISO 9906 Gr.2 for Jockey pumps performance test (Q-H-R).
- NFPA20 std. for control panels functional test.
- Acc. to technical specification 10091-9-3PS-MPGF-00001 Appendix B) for vibration test
(only for Electropump & jockey pump).
- Acc. to technical specification 10091-9-3PS-MPGF-00001 Appendix B) for noise test.
- Hydraulic Institute 14.6 for NPSH test for electric and diesel pump.
- ISO 9906 Gr. 2 for NPSH for jockey pump.
3.2.2 Capacity
Capacity is measured by magnetic flow meter.
Accurancy of measure: +/- 1%.
3.2.3 Pressure
The delivery pump pressure is measured with pressure electronic transducer or
BOURDON manometers. The suction pump pression is measured with BOURDON
manometers.
Accurancy of measure: +/- 1%.
NPSH test is realised with lamination flow at the suction side using gate valve positioned at
length bigger 4 times than the diameter of flange suction pipe.
The pressure take-off must be positioned to equal distance between the suction flange and gate
valve of lamination, however to not less of 2 diameters from it.
- a test on NPSH pump curve up to notice cavitation effects, realised with a loss of the 3% of
total head at a fixed capacity.
- Test shall be recorded at five points, including minimum flow, rated flow and maximum flow
(as per technical specification 10091-9-3PS-MPGF-00001, item 3.5.11).
- Engine run
- Engine trouble
- Engine overspeed
5.2 Electropump control panel
- Motor run
- Power available
- Phase reversal
- Pump room alarm
- Motor trouble
- Pump Failure
- Phase reversal
- Overload
- Loss of power
- Motor run.
