1.2 Performance Features and Options
The SL-V SRP 100 intensifier is designed with the same convenience and ease of access for
maintenance and service you have come to expect from KMT Waterjet. The hydraulic cylinder
head simply bolts to the hydraulic cylinder; each high pressure assembly can be removed and
serviced independently, and the hydraulic seal cartridge can be quickly replaced as a single unit.
The robust performance and standard features are the result of aggressive development and
decades of experience.
•Continuous operation at 35,000 psi (2,413 bar).
•The innovative hard seal end cap provides a metal-to-metal seal against the sealing head,
totally, eliminating the potential for leaks.
•While dramatically increasing seal life, the unique design of the patented HyperLifeTM
seal conforms to the cylinder bore as it expands under pressure, creating an absolute seal.
•The quick release design of the plunger greatly simplifies removal and installation.
•Comprehensive fault detection and troubleshooting logic monitor crucial pressure,
temperature and fluid levels.
•Warning and shutdown sensors guard against potential equipment damage.

•The KMT Customer Service Department can provide real time diagnostics,
troubleshooting and data analysis through a modem interface for remote monitoring of the
programmable logic controller (PLC).
•Proportional pressure control allows the operator to select or vary the operating pressure
from the control display or remote console.
•The current operating pressure can be viewed from the control display with an optional
pressure transducer.

High Pressure Water System
The high pressure water system is the heart of the waterjet system. Water is pressurized and
continuously delivered to the cutting head. As water passes through a tiny hole in the orifice,
water pressure is converted to water velocity capable of cutting most any material.
The major components include the high pressure cylinder assemblies, hydraulic cylinder
assembly, hydraulic piston, attenuator and the safety dump valve.
Figure 1-2: High Pressure System Components
Operating System
A programmable logic controller (PLC) provides basic intensifier shift control and monitors out
of limit conditions. Operator interface is through the control panel display where operating
parameters are set and monitored.

1.4 Safety
The high pressure waterjet cutting system is a high energy cutting tool capable of cutting many
dense or strong materials. Do not touch or be exposed to high pressure water. High pressure
water will penetrate all parts of the human body. The liquid stream and the material ejected by
the extreme pressure can result in severe injury.
All personnel operating, servicing or working near the waterjet cutting equipment shall adhere to
the following safety precautions, as well as the applicable plant safety precautions.
•Only KMT factory trained, qualified personnel shall service and maintain the
equipment.
•The operator shall practice and promote safety at all times to avoid potential
injury and unnecessary downtime.
•The work area around the equipment shall be clean and free of debris and oil
spills.
•All protective guards, shields or covers shall be in place on the equipment at all
times.
•
Safety glasses and ear protection shall be worn when operating or
working near the equipment.
Lockout/Tagout Procedure
This lockout/tagout procedure is designed to protect all employees from injuries caused by the
unexpected energizing or startup of the machine, or the release of stored energy during service
and maintenance.
This is accomplished with energy isolating devices that prevent the transmission or release of
energy. An energy source is any source of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic,
chemical, thermal, or other energy source that could cause injury to personnel.
A lockout device utilizes a lock and key to hold an energy isolating device in the safe position
and prevents the machine from being energized. A tagout device is a prominent warning device
that can be securely attached to the machine warning personnel not to operate the energy isolating
device. This procedure requires the combination of a lockout device and a tagout device.
The lockout/tagout procedure applies to any employee who operates and/or performs service or
maintenance on the machine. Before any maintenance or repairs are performed, the machine
shall be isolated, and rendered inoperative as follows.
1. Shut down the machine by pressing the STOP button, and open the high pressure cutting
water valve to bleed the water and hydraulic pressure from the system.
2. Disconnect, lockout and tag the main, customer supplied, power source.

Section 1
Introduction
20428681
7-2007/Rev 02 1-6
3. Lockout and tag the circuit breaker/disconnect on the electrical enclosure door.
4. Close, lockout and tag the manual shutoff valves for all service connections: cutting water
in, cooling water in and out, and air.
Warning Labels
Warning labels are posted on the machine to indicate potential hazards. The operator and service
personnel shall pay particular attention to these warning labels. Table 1-2 describes the necessary
precautions and provides the part number required to order replacement labels.
Table 1-2
Warning Label Precautions

High pressure water and/or hydraulic pressure can
remain in the system even when the pump has been shut
off. All pressure can be safely bled from the system by
opening the high pressure cutting water valve for a few
seconds after shutting off the pump.
Pressing the EMERGENCY STOP button turns the control
power to the intensifier off, stops the pump and bleeds
the high pressure water through the safety dump valve.
Depressurization of the high pressure system creates a
loud hissing sound when the dump valve opens. The
sound fades quickly as the pressure drops.
