Anyone knows any motor can be driven by ultra high pressure water? Thanks.

Also, what kind of efficiency are you looking for? Approximate hp?
sevice factor (24/7 or occasional use)?

I know of a couple PD pumps that have been used as a motor, but not very efficiently since the water has little lubrication for a tight pump.

I'm sure a hydraulic motor would work...for a little while ;)
 
If I understand the question, energy recovery turbines are common after RO treatment. Don't know of any specific manufacturer's but maybe check with RO suppliers.
 
No. A motor is powered by electricity, not water. Are you really looking for a water turbine?
 
yes, turbine. Does anyone know any good turbine manufacturers in US? Thanks.
 
big, small, for alternate energy supply? What's the application?

It ain't easy to dig it up. Do it right the first time.
