Jetstream Increases Horsepower of 3000 Series UNx Bareshaft Pump

Jetstream of Houston has increased the maximum power input for its 3000 Series UNx bareshaft pump to 200 hp (149 kW). To correspond with the boost in horsepower, Jetstream also developed larger plunger sizes for the pump, which is now able to achieve a flow rate of 7.6 gpm (28.8 lpm) at 40,000 psi (2,758 bar).

This offers contractors power for a diverse range of industrial cleaning and surface preparation jobs with flow rate for single-operator setups.

“We’re constantly enhancing our waterblasting equipment to offer solutions that provide the optimal combination of power, pressure and flow rate to match the growing number of waterblasting applications,” said Jetstream product and marketing manager Jordan Koster. “This upgraded pump meets the global demand for high-power pumps in a compact size.”

Now compatible with power input ranging from 80-200 hp (60-149 kW), the 3000 Series pump is designed for tasks that demand capabilities without sacrificing space. The pump can produce pressures ranging from 6,800-40,000 psi (469-2,758 bar) and offers the ability to change between operating pressures in the field with Jetstream’s fluid end design. The 3000 Series is a triplex pump featuring three plungers available in varying diameters to produce the flow rate for a full range of waterblasting jobs.

Paired with Jetstream’s FXG2 Tornado Gun, the 3000 Series delivers 40,000 psi for surface preparation. The Tornado Gun features an air-powered motor that regulates rotation speed of the nozzle head and a quick-change cartridge for reliable operation and maintenance in the field. This signature Jetstream tool can be used for paint booth and tank cleaning, as well as coating and stripe removal.

“Waterblasting is gaining in popularity for pool resurfacing applications and the 3000 Series pump upgrade addresses that market in particular,” said Koster. “Together with our FXG2 Tornado Gun and incorporated into our X-Series units, this combination makes fast work of plaster removal and easily adapts to other surface preparation jobs.”

Jetstream offers the 3000 Series pump as a standalone product, paired with an electric motor mounted on a skid or integrated into its X-Series waterblasting unit lineup for a complete system including a diesel engine. These units are available in convertible skid or trailer format and are engineered to minimize maintenance and boost uptime for waterblasting jobs. The X-Series features electronic throttle control, a hand-adjustable bypass valve, pilot bearing-free PTOs, covered banded belt drives and a Guardian Waterblast Filtration System.
