ECO-JET® MOBILE CONE VALVE

Flat slide gate for large flows in intakes for hydroelectric power plants

The ECO-JET® Mobile Cone Valve is a solution for installing regulating valves in small and medium flows (e.g. ecological intakes), providing an economic alternative to the installation of fixed cone valves for small diameters and heads. The cross-sectional area in this new type of valve is circular (similar to Howell-Bunger valves) and with a similarly balanced operation. They are designed to be operated (opened and closed) under the anticipated maximum water head conditions, achieving water sealing with a rubber-metal seal.

ECO-JET® valves are made up of the following elements:

  • Valve body
  • Sealing cone
  • Drive
  • Hydraulic power unit
  • Control desk, electrical command, control and signalling panel
