Features of FP & FPNH Series Pumps

The "FP & FPNH" pumps' specific dimensional analysis has made it possible to obtain pumps with reduced dimensions, making them practically adaptable to all classes of trucks, from airport crash tender vehicles to lightweight fire fighting vehicles.

The unique design that was used makes the pump's operations quick and simple: replacing the mechanical seal can be done quickly without the need to disassemble the pump from the vehicle.

The conformation of the hydraulic part of the pump allows you to deliver water at low pressure also from reels.

Whether installed in Mid-Ship pattern or at back of the vehicle, the pump's unique design makes mounting and positioning absolutely simple.

The simplicity and the quality of the materials used allows a reduced assistance and longer intervals of maintenance.

Due to the high degree of modularity, only one type of mechanical seal is required for both the medium pressure and combined medium/high pressure versions. This simplifies and speeds up the process of defining the sense of rotation for the "FP & FPNH" range of pumps, which can rotate both clockwise and counter clockwise.

The self-compensating mechanical seal was specially developed for the FP & FPNH series pumps and features an innovative compact design. Among the technical features, the load spring is in a protected position without contact with the working medium. The new single-spring concept used is sinusoidal and results in less residue contamination than multispring systems. In addition, they are placed in static parts to reduce the number of rotating masses, which are more important for balance. Load dynamics elements are integrated into the stationary part and can restore axial play and reduce vibration automatically. We also achieved a significant reduction in rotating mass and successfully integrated the dynamic part of the seal into the medium pressure impeller. The part of the mechanical seal incorporated in the impeller is made of special material that ensures higher hardness, allows for longer maintenance intervals, and extends the life of the item.

ME+ - Logic Enhanced System (LES)

The Meraj Logic Enhanced System (LES) is a nextgeneration digital CAN-based platform engineered for modern firefighting vehicles. Built to handle the toughest emergency environments, LES combines rugged hardware, intelligent controls, and real-time diagnostics into a single unified interface. Its advanced architecture enables seamless integration of vehicle subsystems, pumping operations, foam management, and safety monitoring, giving firefighting crews complete operational confidence when every second counts.

Adaptability for Specialized Scenarios

The LES uses a modular design, enabling easy integration across all types of firefighting vehicles - from aerials and pumpers to ARFFs - without major customization. This allows operators to rely on consistent controls, real-time monitoring, and advanced safety features regardless of the platform. By streamlining pump management, diagnostics, and vehicle interaction into one system, LES removes the need for multiple solutions. Fleet operators can standardize on LES, reducing training, simplifying maintenance, and boosting reliability, making it a dependable, future-ready choice for any firefighting fleet.

MAP Piston Primer

The MAP piston priming pump is a crucial component designed to ensure effective priming for various pumping systems. Its robust and efficient construction makes it suitable for demanding operational environments.

Operational Safety and Durability

Safety and durability are central to the design of the MAP piston priming pump. It features oil bath lubrication, which helps maintain optimal performance and reduces wear. The inlet and outlet valves are constructed from extremely resistant plastic materials, ensuring longevity and resistance to harsh operating conditions. Additionally, the double piston pump design further enhances reliability and operational safety.

Priming Performance

Engineered for high efficiency, the MAP pump delivers impressive priming performance. Its design ensures that the system is reliably primed, supporting smooth and trouble-free pump operation.

Reliability That Saves Lives

By combining flexibility, resilience, and advanced digital control, the LES allows firefighting teams to focus entirely on their mission - protecting lives and property - with the assurance that their vehicle's critical systems are under precise and dependable control.

Engagement Methods

The MAP piston priming pump can be engaged and disengaged in two distinct ways, depending on the pump series. For the FP and FPNH series, manual engagement is available, allowing users direct control over the process. Alternatively, automatic engagement is also possible, providing convenience and operational flexibility.

Mounting and Drive Mechanism

This pump is typically mounted either on the pedestal (also referred to as the lantern) or directly on the gearbox. The drive is achieved through a belt connected to the pump shaft, enabling reliable power transmission and consistent operation.

Actuation of automatic priming

For the FP/FPNH series, the MAP priming pump drive belt is tensioned by a spring and disengaged by a cylinder. Control of the priming pump depends on the pump pressure. When the priming pressure is reached, the pump is automatically disengage - the priming process is finished. In feeding and bilge mode, the priming pump is switched off.

  • The priming pump is located above the water pump drive and is engaged when required.
  • Very fail-safe due to design as double piston pump and use of wear-resistant materials
  • Dirt resistant
  • Can be engaged and disengaged manually (only for FP/FPNH series) or automatically

FP Series Pumps NFPA 1901

In addition to our EN certified range pumps, Meraj also offers NFPA 1901 compliant fire pump range. The firefighting system requires such type of pump which should be sufficient enough to work in the changing situation and discharge the water at maximum discharge head possible with the maximum flow rate and should with stand in high temperature and works smoothly. MERAJ manufactured and engineered fire fighting extinguishing pumps are capable to work in challenging and drastically changing situations and the performance of the pumps is tested and tried throughout the years. FP series pumps are the single stage, centrifugal pumps with PTO technology to meet the high pressure flow rate which range from 325 to 1500 GPM needed for major high-pressure application. The FP series pumps are our highest selling pumps. It is available with 2 or 3 gears transmission and allows for the addition of a highpressure booster pump or CAFS.
