NLB 125 water jet units now convertible to 40,000 psi

NLB has expanded the operating range of its 125 Series convertible water jet pump units to include ultra-high pressures. All models can be converted in about 20 minutes to any of eight operating pressures, from 6,000 psi to 40,000 psi (414 bar to 2,800 bar), using NLB’s conversion kit.

Fast conversion to 35,000 psi or 40,000 psi gives users more flexibility to do diverse jobs with a single water jet pump unit. The flexibility is enhanced by the range of flows (4.4 gpm to 32.5 gpm, or 16.5 lpm to 123 lpm) and a choice of engines, 125 hp or 145 hp (93 kW or 108 kW).

The NLB 125 Series includes diesel and electric models, all offering long life, easy maintenance, and low operating costs, says the company. NLB has 22 convertible water jet pump units capable of operating at 40,000 psi.
