EnduroMAX Direct-Drive Pump

September 01, 2014

OMAX Corp. has introduced a 100- hp direct-drive pump with EnduroMAX technology. According to the company, the pump provides increased efficiency, improved reliability and lower operating costs by delivering more JetPower at the nozzle, equal to 135-hp intensifier designs.

OMAX's 100-hp direct-drive pump features the durable Inline 6 design, an evolution of the company's EnduroMAX design that provides smooth cutting, high reliability and easy modular maintenance. The addition of the 100-hp model extends OMAX's line of EnduroMAX pumps, which includes 30-hp, 40-hp, and 50-hp models.

The 100-hp pump with EnduroMAX technology increases efficiency by delivering 30 percent more horsepower to the cutting nozzle, compared with a 100-hp intensifier pump. This increase in JetPower creates a more powerful abrasive stream for faster cutting speeds and higher productivity, and the improved efficiency results in less wear and tear and maintenance. The pump provides a stable jet stream up to eight times smoother than intensifier pumps, significantly reducing wear on high pressure plumbing and fittings.

The 100-hp pump also uses Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) technology that tailors power and water consumption to an application for powerful and precise cutting. With VFD technology, the 100-hp pump has increased power and water efficiency and seamless pressure control, all while eliminating inrush current and reducing maintenance.
