Francis turbine


Design for drinking water systems with long pipes and back pressure

  • Minimum change in water flow through the turbine when transferring to the runaway speed = minimum hydraulic impacts
  • For head from 50 to 150m and nominal flow capacity from 120 to 430l/s
  • Type series 3.8/4.8 – F 90
  • Guide vanes and runner are made of stainless steel
  • Electro-mechanical or hydraulic drive of the control with the option of full closing
  • Special coating for humid environments (construction design for drinking water)
  • Special bypass structure for closed piping systems
  • High efficiency at constant flow (50–100% of installed flow)
  • The runner is located directly on the generator shaft (alternatively with a clutch and own bearings of the turbine shaft)
  • Spiral casing, welded in segments
  • Possible horizontal or vertical location of the shaft
