The OMAX Water Recycling System is designed to capture the workable overflow water for recycling to the proper specifications, then returning the water back to the high pressure pump. A filtration system traps suspended particles and ensures that high quality water feeds to the high pressure pump. An ozone generator is used to reduce bacteria growth.

- If maintained properly, the Water Recycling System meets the OEM desired water quality sent to the high pressure pump
- Recycles and conditions make-up water to OEM specifications
- Assists in complying to local or state waste authority disposal regulations
- Provides a configurable system so minimal solids are present in the recycled water
- Recycles all water used in the cutting and cooling process
- Laminar weir prefilter system
- Bag/cartridge filters for suspended solids
- Resin for TDS/dissolved solids filtering
- Ozone generator for bacteria control
- Separate chiller for heat dissipation
- One micron absolute final filter
- Filter, deionization resin, and low water alarms
REQUIREMENTS
- Inlet water temperature at or below 70° F (21° C)
