Pelton turbines
HIGH HEADS
From 30m up to 400m
HYDROTINCK supplies two basic types of Pelton turbines, vertical (with 4-6 nozzles) and horizontal with 1-2 nozzles). For all Pelton turbines we use runner buckets of stainles steel, anti corrosion protection system and electromechanical servo drives.
Pelton turbines can be installed horizontal or vertical. Stream of water that flows from the nozzle come with high speed tangential to the turbine blades, which are welded two parts in the form of single or double dipper. The amount of water that flows into the turbine blades can be controlled. Doing so we are changing the flow of water. Pelton turbines may attain up to 250MW of power, the efficiency of these turbines is 85% to 92%.
The nozzles can be controlled with electromechanical drives or with hydraulic actuators.
The advantages of this design
Effortless maintenance
Simple and compact design, perfect for small spaces
Easy dismantling of the regulating needles during inspection
Simple cleaning of the nozzles’ and casing’s internal space
No bearings or shaft sealings
