Penstocks
Penstock is a crucial component in hydroelectric power plants that channels high-pressure water from a dam or reservoir directly to turbines, driving their rotation to generate electricity.
We specialize in supplying bespoke penstocks tailored to meet the specific needs of water and wastewater treatment plants, industrial facilities, irrigation systems, and flood control projects. Designed to manage flow at inlets and outlets of channels, basins, pits, tanks, and pipelines, our penstocks offer customized solutions that ensure precise and reliable flow control in any setting.
Our penstocks are built to handle a variety of pressure conditions with a strong, welded design using high-quality materials such as Cast Iron, Ductile Iron, and Stainless Steel. Each penstock is custom-made, incorporating features like smooth-sliding plastic guides, robust seals, and options for wall mounting or grouting, meeting international standards like DIN 19569-4, BS 7775, and ANSI/AWWA C 503. This bespoke approach ensures that every unit is specifically crafted to perform optimally in its intended environment.
Designed for a wide range of applications, our penstocks can be operated manually with handwheels, gearboxes, or ‘T’ keys, and are also available with pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic actuators for enhanced automation. This flexibility allows us to customize each penstock to suit your exact operational needs, ensuring seamless integration into any system.
We offer penstocks in a broad range of sizes, up to 2600x2600mm and beyond, to accommodate projects of any scale. Built from durable materials like Ductile Cast Iron and various grades of Stainless Steel, our penstocks are engineered to operate under pressures up to 30 mWC and temperatures from -10°C to +70°C, ensuring they can handle the most demanding conditions. With our bespoke penstock solutions, you receive high-quality, customized flow control equipment designed to meet your exact specifications and deliver reliable performance in any environment.
