8. Receiving all valves, flexible joints and all necessary
9. Storing all materials in suitable storing area.
10. Prior to start of installation it shall be ensured that the shop drawings including
coordination drawings of the respective area are approved.
11. It shall be ensured that the area is released by main contractor to proceed with
mechanical installations.
12. It shall be ensured that all Pumps are as per the approved material submittal and
have been inspected & approved.
13. Ensure that the pump foundation is according to manufacturer’s
recommendations and NFPA standards.
14. Receiving the pumps inside the pump room
15. Fixing the pumps on its concrete base according to specs and manufacturer’s
recommendations
As follow:
FOUNDATION. The foundation for your pump must be sufficiently rigid to absorb any
vibration and stress encountered during pump operation. A raised foundation of
concrete is preferable for most floor mounted pumps. The raised foundation assures
a satisfactory base, protects against flooding, simplifies moisture drainage, and
facilitates keeping the area clean.
Your pump should be firmly bolted to the foundation, whether it is a raised concrete
base, steelwork wall, or structural member. The mounting bolts or lag screws should
be accurately located.
LEVELING THE PUMP. Leveling the pump will require enough shims to support the
base plate near the foundation Anchor and at any points of the base plate carrying a
substantial weight load. The shims should be large enough to allow a gap of 3.5 cm to
5 cm between the base plate and foundation for grouting.
WARNING: Lifting Hazard
The motor and pump assembly may be very heavy. Use extreme caution and safe
lifting equipment during the lifting procedure. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious personal injury, death or property damage.
IMPORTANT: The pump base must be set level to avoid any mechanical difficulties
with the pump or motor. The pump was properly aligned, if supplied with a motor, at
the factory. However, since the pump base is flexible, it may spring and twist during
shipment. Do not pipe the pump until it is realigned. Realign the base after piping is
completed and after the pump is grouted in and bolted down. NOTE: It may be
necessary to readjust the alignment from time to time while the unit and foundation
are new. Realignment will prevent premature bearing failure, excessive vibration or
shaft failure.
Ensure that proper hydraulic accessories such as pressure relief valves, thermal
expansion tanks and flow/pressure control devices are installed in the system.
Consult the responsible party for your system to ensure these devices are installed
and of the prophesize.
ROTATION. Pump rotation is clockwise when viewed from the back of the motor. An
arrow is also located on the pump to show the direction of rotation.
Pump fuel tank: the tank installation will be according the shop drawing detail AS
providing an adequate fuel supply is very important for reliable operation of the
diesel fire pump engine. All engine have limits on maximum lift capability of the fuel
pump as well as maximum fuel head. These limits are published on the installation
and operation (I&O) data. Exceeding these limits can cause poor performance, fuel
pump failure and lack of fire protection. The I&O data for each engine gives a
minimum size for supply and return fuel line size. Minimum size are based on the
engine and tank being no more than 3.3 m a part. And that the tank is installed such
the maximum fuel head is not exceed.
Diesel Engine Exhaust: the Exhaust installation and dimension will be according
Manufacturing recommendation.
16. Pipes fabrication and installation is base according to specs and manufacturer’s
recommendations
As follow:
Delivery, Storage and Handling
Deliver pipes and tubes with factory applied end caps. Maintain end caps through
shipping, storage and handling to prevent pipe‐end damage and prevent entrance of
dirt, and moisture. Protect stored pipes and tubes from moisture and dirt. Elevate
above grade. When stored inside, do not exceed structural capacity of the floor.
Protect flanges, fittings and piping specialties from moisture and dirt.
JOINTING MATERIALS
Pipe Flange Gasket Materials: Suitable for the chemical and thermal condition of the
piping system contents.
ASME B16.21, nonmetallic, flat, asbestos‐free, 3 mm maximum thickness, except
where thickness or specific material is indicated.
Welding Filler Metals: Comply with Attached WBS for welding materials appropriate
for wall thickness and chemical analysis of steel pipe being welded.
Couplings: Cast iron body sleeve assembly, fabricated to match outside diameters of
plain‐end pressure pipes (for buried piping).
Gaskets: Rubber.
Bolts and Nuts: AWWA C1110.
Finish: Enamel paint.
Piping Joint Constructions:
Bevel plain ends of steel pipe. Remove scale, slag, dirt, and debris from inside and
outside of pipe and fittings before assembly.
Welded Joints: Construct joints according to AWS D 10.12 "Recommended Practices
and Procedures for Welding Low Carbon Steel Pipe" using qualified processes and
welding operators according to the "Quality Assurance" Article.
Flanged Joints: Align flange surfaces parallel. Select appropriate gasket material, size,
type, and thickness for service application. Install gasket concentrically positioned.
Assemble joints by sequencing bolt tightening to make initial contact of flanged and
gaskets as flat and parallel as possible. Use suitable lubricants on bolt threads.
Tighten bolts gradually and uniformly using torque wrench.
Grooved Pipe Coupling and fitting: It used to join all pipe diameters, it provide some
flexibility in term of movement and deflection to the piping system
Fabrication & Installation of welded Pipe
Welding machine will be checked before starting the grooving work.
Welding for pipe sizes of 2 ½” and above. Pipes will be inspected to ensure plain
ends. chamfering to be applied to the pipe end
Before assembly, the chamfered joints will be cleaned from any dust, debris, ETC…
Tack weld will be applied first for all pipes to make full fit up between equipment’s,
water tanks and the network.
Complete the marking of the routes of the pipe work by following the approved shop
drawings, combined services drawings and pump room coordination with other
services based on given and final benchmarks or reference points.
After marking the pipe routes, the anchoring points will be drilled according to the
required support spacing as shown on the approved shop drawings.
M10 Anchors will be used to support 4” and below pipes while M12 Anchors will be
used to support 6” pipes and above, as recommended by NFPA. Thread rods of the
appropriate size shall be cut and fixed by using bolts, nuts and washers. Approved
type of pipe support / Hanger will be attached to the threaded rods, nuts and
washers will be installed as well.
Supports will be fixed on the tank walls using M10, M12 to fix pipe lines at high levels
Start welding by our qualified welders and following up the welding step by step
according to specs,
