FRANCIS TURBINES

Reaction type turbine, used in a wide range of hydraulic conditions in situations with medium heads and medium-large flow rates.

Is possible to adjust the guide vanes to adapt the turbine to the flow rate conditions.

Is possible to adjust the guide vanes to adapt the turbine to the flow rate conditions. Depending on the installation context, vertical / horizontal configurations are available or the flow rate is divided by 2 or more turbines.

In case of need for the control of hydraulic transients, the plant is equipped with special synchronous discharge valves.
