TURBINE

Kaplan
turbine

small jumps, large volume of water

A classic solution for the exploitation of large volumes of water for low heads, the Kaplan turbine enjoys excellent efficiency even with large variations in flow rate thanks to the simultaneous regulation of the impeller blades and the distributor blades.

Francis turbine

medium head, medium water flow

The Francis turbine is used on sites with hydraulic heads and medium water volumes. It has high efficiency thanks to the possibility of regulating the opening of the distributor blades as the volume of water available varies.

Pelton turbine

big jumps, small water flow

Thanks to the possibility of dividing the volume of water available into multiple jets with independent regulation, the Pelton turbine guarantees high efficiencies even with small quantities of water.

Screw turbine

medium head, medium water flow

The screw turbine, also known as Archimedes' screw, is a volumetric turbine. Like other types of turbine, to generate electricity it uses the hydraulic energy of a water resource that flows through a difference in altitude. This type of machine is suitable for low or very low water heads.
