XL4 penstock

Sealing performance
Nominal size 200 × 200 to 4000 × 4000 mm, for round
or rectangular openings, for dowelling or embedding
The high stability and reliability of
the XL4 is a guarantor for a trou-
ble-free and safe operation of the
facility. With one light, but torsion-
ally stuff sliding plate and the high-
grade steel framework functioning
as a sealing surface, the XL4 has
an outstanding sealing quality. The
sealing is mounted directly on the
sliding plate and is not affected
by the medium in open position.
The pre-stressed sealing gives an
outstanding tightness to the XL4,
both in on- and off-seating condi-
tions. The XL4 can be supplied in all
rectangular intermediate sizes up
to 4000 × 4000 mm. The XL4 is also
available as a lowering type.
