High Performance and FlexibilityEngineered for both outdoor and indoor installations, the PT-2941 Pelton Turbine adapts to varying project requirements. Its adjustable flow nozzles and flexible operating pressure allow integration into diverse hydropower systems, from mini to large plants. The robust runner, made with precision-cast stainless steel, ensures long-lasting performance and minimal efficiency losses even under challenging conditions.
Durable and Reliable ConstructionEvery major componentfrom the runner and shaft to the casingis crafted from premium stainless steel, cast iron, and forged steel. Heavy-duty roller bearings, combined with anti-corrosive epoxy surface treatment and IP54 protection, guarantee reliable operation in a wide temperature range (-10C to 80C). This makes the turbine ideal for demanding environments, promoting consistent performance and reducing maintenance frequency.
FAQs of Pelton Turbine:
Q: How is the Pelton Turbine PT-2941 installed, and what locations is it suitable for?
