The Benefits
High pressure abrasive water jetting represents a major advance in the decommissioning of structures, process and nuclear plant, offshore and sub-sea equipment in difficult-to-access and hazardous environments, providing a compact portable solution to such difficult and dangerous tasks. This proven equipment is already in operation with the British Armed Forces and with North Sea contractors.
All forms of DIAJET offer:
- Safe cutting: No contact with target, no heat generated, minimal vibration and safe in inflammable environments
- Cold cutting - Maximum cooling and no heat affected zone
- Flexibility - Able to cut any material and virtually any shape
- Remote operation - up to 500m or 1000m depending on model - reduces exposure to environmental or cutting hazards
- Ease of Use - Simple manual control
- Environment Friendly - Uses no hazardous liquids and creates no noxious gases or dust.
- Transportable - containerised, skid-mounted, or pallet-loaded modules
- Quality controlled - BS EN ISO 9001:2000 certified
