Product ID: 05144183-1 – High-Pressure Cylinder / Intensifier Cylinder Body

Description:
This component is a high-pressure cylinder, specifically an intensifier cylinder body or liner, designed for waterjet cutting systems. It is a precision-machined cylindrical housing that contains the reciprocating plunger or piston assembly and withstands extreme internal pressures generated during waterjet intensification. The "-1" suffix may indicate a specific version, size, or application variant.

Applications:

• Used as the primary pressure-containing vessel within an intensifier pump for waterjet cutting machines.

• Installed in the high-pressure section of the intensifier where water is compressed to ultra-high pressures (typically 60,000 psi or higher).

• Suitable for both pure water and abrasive waterjet systems requiring reliable, fatigue-resistant pressure containment.

Features:

• Constructed from high-strength, corrosion-resistant material such as precipitation-hardened stainless steel or high-alloy steel.

• Precision-honed internal bore surface to minimize friction and wear on reciprocating seals and plungers.

• Designed to withstand cyclic pressure loading from zero to maximum operating pressure at high cycle rates.

• Includes threaded ends, flange mounts, or groove features for attachment to cylinder heads, check valve bodies, or end caps.

• Engineered with appropriate wall thickness and material properties to meet safety factors for ultra-high pressure service.

• Resists stress corrosion cracking and fatigue failure when properly maintained and operated within rated parameters.

Maintenance:

• Fully depressurize the waterjet system and disconnect power before removing or servicing the cylinder.

• During disassembly, carefully remove the cylinder body from the intensifier frame using proper lifting techniques if the cylinder is heavy.

• Inspect the internal bore surface for scoring, galling, pitting, corrosion, or wear caused by seal or plunger contact.

• Check all threaded connections and sealing surfaces for damage, deformation, or erosion.

• Measure the internal bore diameter at multiple locations to verify dimensional accuracy and detect ovality or taper.

• Clean the cylinder bore and exterior surfaces thoroughly using a soft cloth and low-pressure water or compatible solvent.

• Inspect the cylinder for external cracks, dents, or signs of previous impact or overtightening.

• Replace the cylinder if any bore damage exceeds manufacturer-specified limits or if cracks are detected.

• When reinstalling, lubricate seals and threads as specified in the equipment service manual.

• Tighten end caps, retainers, or mounting hardware to the torque values provided by the equipment manufacturer.

• After reassembly, slowly pressurize the system while observing for leakage or abnormal sounds; do not exceed rated pressure.

• Periodically inspect the cylinder during seal replacement intervals to identify wear before failure occurs.
