Overview
The Resato P-800 is a high-pressure intensifier pump delivering up to 60,000 psi (4,137 bar) of continuous cutting pressure, engineered for demanding industrial waterjet applications. Developed in the Netherlands by Resato International, this pump unit forms the hydraulic heart of waterjet cutting systems requiring consistent, high-volume pressure output across extended production runs. Its intensifier-based design ensures smooth, pulse-free pressure delivery that directly improves cut quality and nozzle longevity.
Built around a robust hydraulic drive system, the P-800 features Resato's proven seal and valve technology refined over decades of pump engineering. The intensifier cylinder design minimizes pressure fluctuations to below 1%, a critical factor when cutting sensitive materials such as carbon fiber, laminated glass, or aerospace alloys where surface finish tolerances are tight. Oil-to-water pressure amplification ratios are carefully optimized to balance hydraulic efficiency with mechanical reliability.
The P-800 is designed for integration with Resato's own cutting systems as well as third-party waterjet tables, making it a flexible power source for OEM builders and facilities upgrading existing equipment. Programmable pressure control allows operators to dial in cutting pressure precisely for different materials and thicknesses, reducing abrasive consumption and orifice wear. A built-in diagnostic display monitors real-time pressure, oil temperature, flow rate, and seal condition.
With a compact footprint relative to its output class, the P-800 fits into production environments where floor space is at a premium. Resato backs the pump with a European service network and offers extended maintenance contracts, making it a practical long-term investment for high-utilization waterjet shops running multi-shift operations.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Delivers consistent 60,000 psi with less than 1% pressure fluctuation for superior cut quality
- Compact footprint for its output class fits into space-constrained production floors
- Compatible with third-party waterjet cutting tables, offering broad integration flexibility
- Built-in PLC diagnostics monitor seal wear, oil temperature, and flow in real time
- European build quality with long service intervals reduces total cost of ownership
Limitations
- Higher acquisition cost than entry-level pump units; best justified in high-utilization environments
- Requires water-cooled infrastructure, adding installation complexity compared to air-cooled alternatives
- Specialized hydraulic seals must be sourced through Resato's service network, limiting local repair options

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The P-800 uses standard high-pressure plumbing connections and is compatible with most major waterjet table brands including Flow, Omax, and Bystronic, as well as Resato's own R-series cutting systems. Resato provides integration support for OEM configurations.
02
Seal life depends heavily on water quality and operating pressure. Under typical conditions at 60,000 psi with properly filtered water, seals are rated for 500–800 operating hours. The built-in diagnostic system tracks seal condition and alerts operators before failure.
03
Yes. The P-800 features programmable pressure control from approximately 10,000 psi up to 60,000 psi, allowing operators to optimize pressure for specific materials and reduce abrasive and orifice wear on thinner or softer workpieces.
04
Resato recommends softened water with hardness below 17 ppm and total dissolved solids under 200 ppm. A pre-filter and deionization system are recommended to maximize seal and orifice life and protect internal components.
05
Resato's pump range includes higher-output models for larger flow demands. Multiple P-800 units can also be run in tandem to supply high-flow cutting heads or multi-head cutting tables requiring increased abrasive waterjet volume.
