Pelton Type Turbine

The Pelton type turbine is the best election for high head and small discharge hydraulic power resources. They have the peculiarity such as compact structure, small size, high efficiency and less investments, etc.

The Pelton type turbines manufactured by CWTW are ranging from 80 to 1,200m in water head, 0.2 to 80MW in capacity and 0.6 to 3.5m in runner diameter. Theirs shaft arrangements are either vertical or horizontal and they may have single nozzle, twin or multi-nozzles. With characteristics such as high head, big capacity, multi-nozzle and good structure, etc.. The products has good market not only at home, but also in Italy, Turkey, Peru, and Burma, etc..The vertical shaft, twin-nozzle Type CJ20-L-170/2×9.2 15MW units for Tianhu hydropower station in Guangxi with 1022.4 m water head(highest head in China), runners of 1.7m in diameter commissioned in 1991, which even won the praise of Premier Li Peng at that time; The vertical shaft, four-nozzle unit manufactured for Sichuan Ebian Dabao Hydropower Project is the first four-nozzle unit in China.The vertical shaft four-nozzle unit for Baishuihe hydropower station in Guizhou province, Commissioned in 1996 is the first unit adopted the unit-control mode in China;In the recent years, the design and manufacture technology for Pelton type unit has improved a lot, and become more mature. CWTW has supplied equipments for Sichuan Yazuihe Yangang Hydropower Project and Paomaping Hydropower Project, which capacity is 60000KW, with six nozzles.The vertical shaft, four-nozzle unit for Sichuan Xieka Hydropower Project, which capacity is 45000KW per unit.The vertical shaft, double-nozzle units for Sichuan Subagu Hydropower Project, which capacity is 26000KW per unit, also the highest head in Asia.The horizontal, double-nozzle type units for Mulungshi Hydropower Plant in Zambia, which capacity is 10500KW per unit.The horizontal, single nozzle units for Yunnan Yangfacheng Hydropower Project, which capacity is 5000KW per unit, head is 955m.

The design and manufacture for these units makes CWTW the first range in the same industry in China, which also makes CWTW the only “Industrialization Base for high head, large capacity and multi-nozzle Pelton type unit in China ” .
