Low pressure penstock type: KSA-LD
Low pressure penstock type: KSA-LD
Application
KWT penstocks are available in various forms and are used in surface, sewer and process water systems. The penstock is a very traditional structure for regulating flows or isolating a pipe, using a simple yet effective drive system.
Operation:
As a new addition to the already popular KSA range, the KSA-LD has been developed as a more cost effective solution for smaller, less demanding applications. The KSA-LD is, in particular, suitable for use in the soil, road and water construction sector.Principles behind the development of this valve:
– Lightweight yet durable
– Cost effectiveness
– Simplicity of installation
– Ease of transportation
The KSA-LD is a unique concept using modular parts, allowing us to make a very compact, sleek penstock for an attractive price. The penstock is made up of an HDPE back plate, with a stainless steel 316L sliding plate, spindle and spindle support. The compact design assists in reducing transport costs, makes the unit easier to install, and also makes the product less prone to vanalism.
