Intensifier pumps incorporate novel check tube

A Jet Edge product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Sep 22, 2006

Jet Edge has developed a new check tube design for its ultra-high-pressure waterjet intensifier pumps.

Jet Edge has developed a new check tube design for its ultra-high-pressure waterjet intensifier pumps.

The new check tube has double the life of previous models and is easier to service, resulting in lower operating cost.

Jet Edge intensifier pump check tubes feature a low-pressure poppet and high-pressure poppet that open and close, allowing low-pressure water to flow into the high-pressure cylinder and ultra-high-pressure water to leave the high-pressure cylinder.

The new check tube design includes an improved low-pressure poppet, poppet housing and simplified check tube design.

The design allows the low-pressure poppet assembly to be secured by a single hollow screw and does not require an adhesive such as Loctite, eliminating the waiting period for the adhesive to cure.

This improved design has been incorporated into Jet Edge's new iP6050 intensifier pump.

It also is available as a direct replacement part for all other Jet Edge Ultra-high intensifier pumps.

With the most comprehensive warranty in the industry, Jet Edge backs its high-pressure components, check tubes, high-pressure cylinders and attenuators with a one-year unlimited hour warranty against defects and cracking.

All Jet Edge high-pressure key components are tracked with serial numbers.
