Water Jet Diverter

10/14/2010 10:01 PM

anyone know any product that can divert high pressure water?

i have an existing water jet cutting system with water pressure to ~400-500bar

I would like to add on a diverter into this system to divert water away without shutting off the water jet pump.

the water goes out to 5 nozzles to do water jet cutting...

i would like to divert water from 3 nozzles while 2 others remain the same

due to the high pressure i cannot close off the 3 nozzles. this will cause a pressure surge and damage the system.

Why not ask the manufacturer. If this was possible they may be g=having a different model/attachment?

The plant I used to work on used Aqua HP pumps. We had divert and flow control valves from Aqua
