Fire pump run log
LogThe numbers somebody read off the pump and its controller, kept against the pump they came from.
Readings, attributed to whoever took them
Suction, discharge, speed, how long it ran, the battery voltages, the engine numbers. Each entry is dated, carries the name of whoever ran the pump, and belongs to that pump by its stable id — so two pumps labeled FP-1 in two buildings are two histories, and renaming one moves nothing.
No figure here is compared against anything
The pump’s nameplate rating can be recorded on the equipment record, and it sits there as reference. Nothing is calculated from it. There is no percentage of rated capacity in this tool, no expected churn pressure, no acceptance curve and no pass mark — because what your pump ought to do comes from its own nameplate, its commissioning data and the standard it was designed to.
If you want a range on a reading, you can set one, and it will be labeled as yours on every screen and on the printed log. CompliMaint does not set targets.
This is a run record, not a flow test
An annual flow test is a specific procedure with specific equipment and a specific report, and this is not it. This is where you write down that the pump was run, on what date, by whom, and what the gauges said — the ordinary record that otherwise lives on a clipboard in the pump room.
Kept alongside: Sprinkler inspection log · Standpipe inspection log · Generator test log
A record of the readings taken during a fire pump run, kept per pump on your device. CompliMaint states no required run frequency or duration, publishes no acceptable pressure, voltage, speed or temperature, computes no percentage of rated capacity, and performs no flow test. It issues no verdict on any run and makes no determination that any pump is operating correctly, adequately or in compliance with anything. A range exists only where you typed one. Everything runs on your device.
Questions people ask
- How often does a fire pump need to be run?
- CompliMaint does not say. Run frequencies come from the standard your system was designed to in the edition your jurisdiction has adopted, and they differ between an electric and a diesel pump. No interval is stored, suggested or filled in here. Confirm what applies with your AHJ and your fire protection contractor, then record what you did.
- Will it tell me whether the readings are acceptable?
- No, and there is no field in which it could. This product publishes no acceptable value for any reading on this log. If you set a range yourself it is shown as yours, and a reading outside it is labeled “Outside your range” rather than “fail”. Whether a run was satisfactory is a judgment for the person who ran it.
- Is this the annual flow test report?
- No. A flow test is a distinct procedure with its own equipment and its own report, usually produced by a contractor. This log records ordinary runs — the date, who ran it, and what the gauges and the controller showed. Keep the flow test report separately; it answers a different question.
- Can I keep more than one pump?
- Yes. Each pump is its own equipment record with its own history, identified by a stable id rather than by its label, so relabelling a pump keeps every reading attached to it.
- Does anything leave the device?
- No. Without an account, readings, equipment and settings stay in this browser, with nothing uploaded and nothing to sign up for. Signed into a CompliMaint workspace, the same records are also stored for that workspace — which is what puts them on your other devices and in front of your colleagues — and the screen says which of the two you are looking at. Print for your records either way.
