TURBINES

The WKV turbines. Highly efficient and reliable.

YIELD FROM THEFIRST ROLL

What makes WKV's turbine technology so unique is its flexibility. We can build and deliver the right solution for almost any terrain, for any amount of water and almost any drop height. Special applications are also often part of our everyday business, whether islanding with black start, increased moments of inertia with flywheel and turbine synchronous bypass valves, plant bypass valves or transport concepts to bring heavy and robust technology to remote locations. Simply leave the solution to your challenge to us. So that you can generate reliable sales with superior technology.

YOU HAVE THE WATER,WKV THE RIGHT TURBINE

Technology is our strength and our passion. Ultimately, however, it is only a means to an end for reliably generating clean energy.Depending on the requirements, we select and deliver the right solution from the four following turbine types:

PELTON TURBINE

The robust and almost indestructible solution with very good full-load and part-load efficiencies for high heads and heavily fluctuating flow rates, even with water rich in floating debris. Heads of between 60 and 1,500 m are possible with outputs of up to around 35 MW per unit.
