How Does a KSB Fire Pump System Work?
A KSB fire pump system is designed to provide the required water flow and pressure when a fire-fighting system needs to operate. The exact arrangement depends on the fire-protection system being served and the pump set selected.
Within the KSB Hya fire-fighting range, the pump set is controlled according to system pressure. HyaSolo provides a single-pump arrangement, while HyaDuo uses a dual-pump configuration to provide redundancy.
Fire water pumps can form part of fixed fire-protection installations such as hydrant systems, where sufficient water pressure and flow need to be available when the system is required. KSB also provides separate firefighting water pump solutions for sprinkler and other fire-protection applications.
Dura Pump are able to assist you to ensure the correct pump set is specified, to meet the required standards, and provide ongoing maintenance to give you peace of mind that your building is protected.
KSB Fire Pumps for Hydrant and Sprinkler Systems

Pressure Maintenance Pumps and Main Fire Pumps
A pressure maintenance pump performs a different role from the main fire pump within a fire-protection system. In sprinkler installations, a pressure maintenance pump can maintain a defined system pressure and compensate for small water losses, helping prevent the main firefighting pumps from starting unnecessarily.
The main fire pumps remain responsible for providing the required firefighting water flow when the fire-protection system operates. The correct pump arrangement will therefore depend on the design and requirements of the overall fire pump system.
Choosing the Right KSB Fire Pump Set
Selecting the appropriate KSB fire pump set depends on the fire-protection system being served and its required flow, pressure and level of redundancy. A hydrant system, sprinkler installation and other fire-fighting applications can require different pump arrangements.
Dura Pump can support the specification of a suitable KSB fire pump or fire fighting pump set based on the application and required system performance, as well as provide ongoing pump maintenance and support.

KSB Fire Pump FAQs
A KSB fire pump set combines the pump and associated system components required to provide water flow and pressure for a fire-protection application. KSB offers fire pump solutions for applications including hydrant and sprinkler systems
The HyaSolo 2 D FL is a single-pump fire-fighting system, while the HyaDuo 2 D FL uses two pumps with redundant functionality. Both current systems are designed for hydrant fire-fighting applications.
Yes. KSB’s HyaSolo and HyaDuo fire-fighting systems are specifically designed for hydrant applications.
Yes. KSB offers fire pumps for sprinkler systems, including various single-pump and packaged pump-set configurations.
A pressure maintenance pump, sometimes referred to as a jockey pump, maintains a defined pressure within a fire sprinkler system and compensates for small water losses so that the main fire-fighting pumps do not start unnecessarily.
The appropriate fire pump system depends on factors including the type of fire-protection system, required water flow, required pressure and redundancy requirements. Dura Pump should assess these requirements when specifying the appropriate system.
