Explosive Atmosphere Precautions
Machining certain types of material such as titanium with a waterjet may produce
sparks. Do not operate the equipment in an explosive atmosphere. Do not allow
explosive or flammable vapors to accumulate in the area of the equipment.
Equipment Safety Features
The abrasive waterjet provides several built-in safety features:
Overpressure Protection
During operation, pump pressure is monitored to prevent an overpressure
condition. If the pump exceeds the factory set maximum pressure limit, the safety
relief valve activates and shuts down the pump unit.
Electrical Protection
The equipment controller includes short circuit, over current and thermal protection
for the pump motor.
Electrical Disconnect/Emergency Machine Off (EMO)
An electrical disconnects/emergency machine off (EMO) switch is used to remove
the main AC electrical supply from the machine. To isolate the machine from its
electrical supply, always unplug the main AC supply power cord from its electrical
supply outlet.
Safety Lid
The lid of the equipment is designed with a safety interlock to prevent waterjet
operation when the lid is open.
