How much does the Jet Edge 75 HP Waterjet Intensifier Pump cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc waterjet cutting in this class — not a quote from Jet Edge. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Jet Edge 75 HP Waterjet Intensifier Pump is the pressure source for a waterjet table, not a cutting machine in itself. Jet Edge rates it at 60,000 psi (4,100 bar) with an ultra-high-pressure flow of 1.5 gpm (5.7 lpm) from a 75 hp (56 kw) motor.
Flow is the figure that decides what the pump can feed. At a given pressure, orifice size and the number of cutting heads set the water demand, and 1.5 gpm (5.7 lpm) is the ceiling they share. Running two heads means two smaller orifices or reduced pressure, so work out the orifice combination against that flow before specifying a dual-head table.
The intensifier is driven hydraulically. An axial piston, variable displacement, pressure-compensated hydraulic pump draws from a reservoir of 55 gallons (209 liters), and a single attenuator of 1 quart (0.9 liters) smooths the pressure between intensifier strokes. The motor is a TEFC NEMA premium efficiency type.
Three things need checking before installation. Electrical: full-load current is listed as 89 amps on a 460-volt supply and 178 amps on a 230-volt supply. Water: the low-pressure supply must deliver 3.3 gpm (12.5 lpm) at a minimum of 60 psi (4.1 bar). Floor: the unit is 86 in (2190 mm) long and weighs approximately 4,900 lbs. (2222 kg) with fluid.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 60,000 psi (4,100 bar) rated pressure with 1.5 gpm (5.7 lpm) of ultra-high-pressure flow
- 75 hp (56 kw) TEFC NEMA premium efficiency motor
- Axial piston, variable displacement, pressure-compensated hydraulic pump, so hydraulic output follows demand
- Listed for both supply voltages: 89 full-load amps at 460 volts or 178 at 230 volts
Limitations
- Rated pressure is 60,000 psi (4,100 bar), and no higher-pressure version of this pump is listed
- A single attenuator of 1 quart (0.9 liters) is listed, with no pressure-ripple figure
- Needs 3.3 gpm (12.5 lpm) of supply water at 60 psi (4.1 bar) minimum, which a weak shop water line will not hold without a booster
- At 230 volts the full-load current is 178 amps, which calls for heavy supply wiring

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Jet Edge rates it at 60,000 psi (4,100 bar) with an ultra-high-pressure flow rate of 1.5 gpm (5.7 lpm). Motor output is 75 hp (56 kw). Flow, not pressure, limits how large an orifice or how many heads the pump can supply.
02
Full-load current is listed as 89 amps on the 460-volt supply and 178 amps on the 230-volt supply. Size the breaker and feeder for the voltage you will use and confirm starting requirements with Jet Edge. The motor is a TEFC NEMA premium efficiency type.
03
The low-pressure water supply must provide 3.3 gpm (12.5 lpm) at 60 psi (4.1 bar) minimum. That is more than twice the 1.5 gpm (5.7 lpm) the pump delivers at high pressure. If the building supply cannot hold that pressure with the pump running, a booster pump is needed.
04
The unit is 86 in (2190 mm) long and weighs approximately 4,900 lbs. (2222 kg) with fluid. The hydraulic reservoir holds 55 gallons (209 liters). Width and height are not listed, so get the full footprint and service clearances from Jet Edge before fixing its position beside the table.
