The features of the Compact Kaplan turbines ensure a wide application according to specific needs. For optimal utilization of an available water resource, double-regulated Compact Kaplan Turbines have a flat efficiency curve resulting in a high output also at part-load. Under more constant flow conditions, the Semi-Kaplan turbine with fixed gate mechanism is a cost-effective alternative.
All guarantees concerning efficiency, output and resistance to cavitation are backed up by model tests in the ANDRITZ HYDRO laboratories.
Particularly in rehabilitation projects, Compact Kaplan offers an ideal alternative for replacing old machines.
Rehabilitation times are short since the unit is delivered as a complete aggregate which can be installed in a single embedding phase.
