High-pressure Pump

The high-pressure pump provides approximately 30,000 pounds per square inch (psi) of cutting pressure for the ProtoMAX. Output high-pressure from the pump is automatically controlled by a variable frequency drive (VFD). The software helps prevent damage to the pump by halting operation when there is inadequate incoming water pressure, excess water temperature, or overpressure events.
