Tritech Super ZipJet
Excavation and Jetting
The Tritech Super ZipJet ROV Dredge Pump replaces the successful Tritech ZipJet Ultra range of suction jetting systems.
Description
The Super ZipJet will not block or jam because there are no moving parts on the dredging side of the system. Power is derived from a stream of high velocity fluid creating a low pressure region behind the suction nozzle. The pump may be rapidly switched from suction to jetting mode.
Applications
- Work-class ROVs
- Break up of seabed muds and sands
- Removal of drill cuttings
- Marine archaeology
- Salvage operations
Features
- Modular pump core
- Reverse flush for suction nozzle
- Double shaft seal
- Option of close fitting inlet strainer
Benefits
- Robust proven design
- Small and light
- Rapid switching from suction to jetting
The Super ZipJet replaces the successful Tritech ZipJet Ultra range of products. The Super ZipJet incorporates many technical advances over the previous generation of ROV suction and jetting systems.
These advances are a direct result of customer feedback. Considerable emphasis has been placed on increasing efficiency in both the suction and jetting modes.
The Super ZipJet incorporates several design features, which improve its reliability and substantially reduce its maintenance costs.
