KAPLAN TURBINE
We produce Kaplan Turbines as vertical and horizontal
axis machines, suitable for concrete or steel spiral case.
Also we can produce Kaplan turbines with horizontal
axis according to available head with 4, 5 or 6 blades up
to a capacity of 20 MW. Its biggest advantage is, Kaplan
turbine is double regulated which leads very flat and high
efficiency curve among the entire flow range and works
efficiently in different head range.
Our runner blades are made out of high
resistance Chrome-Nickel alloy in order
to prevent corosion and to ensure
a long life time as well as high
wearing resistance. At the same
time the runner hub can be
produced in a way to be filled
either with oil or water in order to
become environmentally friendly if
the customer demands it. The production
is carried out in accordance with international
quality standards and norms.
