Containerised Pump Houses
Davron Equipment has extensive experience in supplying containerised fire pump houses and fire fighting equipment. These pump houses vary from standardised systems built into a container, to systems build according to customer specifications. The containers could comprise the various pump arrangements, such as electrically driven fire pumps, standby diesel driven fire pumps, jockey pumps.
Plug & Play Solutions
The electrical supply could include lighting, plugs for alternate use, DB boards, electrical pump starter and controller, diesel engine controller, jockey pump controller. The auto start test arrangement, suction and discharge piping, valves, gauges and pressure switches, and fuel tanks for the diesel driven pumpsets are typically installed.
Davron Equipment have supplied many containerised pump houses, with most recent supply being to Mbarara Breweries. SABMillers Ugandan subsidiary, Nile Breweries Limited opened its new brewery in Mbarara. Davron were successful in supplying a fully containerised pumpset to this client.
The container is converted, and doors and louvres etc are fitted. The container is fitted with a 220 kW Electrically driven pumpset, a standby pumpset comprising a 184 kW Diesel Engine, as well as 2 x Jockey pumps. We also fitted the Pump House Distribution Board, complete with Annunciators, diesel and electric controllers. The containerised units are “plug and play” solutions.
