HIGH-PRESSURE CYLINDER ASSEMBLY FOR WATERJET INTENSIFIER PUMPS, AND RELATED METHODS

摘要

A high-pressure cylinder assembly for use with a waterjet intensifier pump includes a cylinder having a through bore and a radially inner surface extending along a length of the cylinder. A ceramic liner is provided in the through bore and contacts the radially inner surface of the cylinder. A first high-pressure seal is provided in the through bore of the cylinder and is constrained at a first end of the through bore. A second high-pressure seal is provided in the through bore and is constrained at a second end of the through bore. The first and second high-pressure seals are configured to maintain a sealed environment within the high-pressure cylinder assembly during operation of the waterjet intensifier pump.
