11.3 Cutting Water Specifications
The cutting water supply to the waterjet pump must meet the following
specifications. High concentration of dissolved solids, especially calcium, silica,
and chlorides, will affect high pressure component life. A water analysis will
indicate the type of water treatment necessary.

Do not reduce beyond this amount or the water will become too aggressive.
11.4 Cooling Water Specifications
Depending on the type of cooling system (closed recirculation, once through,
etc.), the following common problems can be experienced:
Closed recirculation :
Corrosion
Fouling
Once through:
Corrosion
Fouling
Scale
Microbiological
Scale control is the most common problem, and is the result of insoluble matter
deposited on the heat transfer surface. Calcium carbonate is the primary cause of
scale when calcium bicarbonate breaks down. As the temperature of the water
increases it becomes less able to hold carbonates in suspension.
