Frequently Asked Questions
A double leaf penstock incorporates two weir plates or leaves, which can be moved independently of each other. The top leaf acts as a weir penstock to control water flowing over the top. The bottom leaf acts as a channel penstock and can be operated to move high volumes of water.
Double leaf penstocks are ideal for use where summer and winter levels are required, as the penstock can be set to maintain a level when required or opened fully to allow free flow. It can be used as an alternative to a tilting weir where space is restricted.
Yes. Our double leaf penstocks can be fitted with an actuator that can operate them. These can be controlled by sensors set to raise or lower water levels to given targets. In situations where there is no power on-site ACE can also provide Compact Solar Control (CSC). The CSC is an intelligent solar powered actuator.
