Primer
A centrifugal, midship-mounted fire pump on a fire department engine must be primed before it will operate. Primed means fully water flooded and all the air inside the pump casing preferably removed.An operating midship pump filled with water is self- sustaining in that it creates quite a high vacuum at the eye of the impeller. This provides a continuous intake of water when drafting from a static supply source.
Pressure Relief/ Governor
The relief valve is designed to keep dangerous pressure surges from injuring firefighters on hoselines. The system consists of two components: the pilot valve, which is mounted to the pump panel; and the relief valve, which is mounted between the pump intake and discharge fittings. The pilot valve manages the system by sensing discharge pressure and controls the opening and closing of the relief valve. The relief valve directs water from the discharge of the pump back into the intake of the pump when pressure surges occur
