Hydro Turbine Components and Systems

Hydro Components

We are currently developing a range of MiniWater Pelton and Turgo turbines, and can offer component parts to both individuals and industry to allow the development of many different hydro systems.  If you don't find what you're looking for on our website, please email or call with your requirements.  If you wish to develop your own range of hydro turbines using our components, please ask about our design & development service.

Pelton Turbine Components

We have developed a range of Pelton Cups (or spoons) and Pelton Discs, allowing the individual to manufacture complete Pelton Turbines using a variety of generators, including our own flexible range of Permanent Magnet Generators.  These Pelton Cups are moulded in very durable Polycarbonate plastic, and are easily replaceable if they become worn or damaged.  Their design allows the user to create a wide range of wheel diameters, but we can supply a moulded plastic pelton disc of 260mm diameter (giving a jet PCD of 330mm) to match the performance of our 2200W PMG range of generators. For other sizes, please email us for detailed drawings of the disc sizes that can be made to accommodate our pelton cups.

Each Pelton Cup is secured to the Pelton Disc by means of a single M6 stainless steel nut & bolt. The design of our pelton discs gives a very robust mounting of the cups, allowing the completed pelton wheel to be used with up to 4 jets of 20mm diameter, giving powers from a few hundred watts to over 2200W.  The flexibility of this design allows the user to match the pelton turbine's performance to the available water head and flow rate. Each plastic pelton disc takes 24 pelton cups.

Pelton turbines are generally more suited to high head, low flow rate applications, and typically your site will require a minimum head height of 15-20m to be effective.

 

Pelton Cup Price - £4.80 (Qty 1-24) - £4.50 (Qty 25-72) - £4.30 (Qty 73-144) - £4.10 (Qty 145-240) - £4.00 (Qty 241-480) >> Call to Order

Pelton Disc Price - £140 (giving 330mm Jet PCD) >> Call to Order

Turgo Turbine Components

We have developed a range of Turgo Cups and Turgo Discs, allowing the individual to manufacture complete Turgo Turbines using a variety of generators, including our own flexible range of Permanent Magnet Generators.  These Turgo Cups are moulded in very durable Polycarbonate plastic, and are easily replaceable if they become worn or damaged.  Their design allows the user to create a wide range of wheel diameters, but we can supply a moulded plastic turgo disc of 260mm diameter (giving a jet PCD of 330mm) to match the performance of our 2200W PMG range of generators. For other sizes, please email us for detailed drawings of the disc sizes that can be made to accommodate our turgo cups.

Each Turgo Cup is secured to the Turgo Disc by means of a single M6 stainless steel nut & bolt. The design of our turgo discs gives a very robust mounting of the cups, allowing the completed turgo wheel to be used with up to 4 jets of 30mm diameter, giving powers from a few hundred watts to over 2200W.  The flexibility of this design allows the user to match the turgo turbine's performance to the available water head and flow rate.  Each plastic turgo disc takes 24 turgo cups.

Turgo turbines are generally more suited to lower head, higher flow rate applications than the pelton turbines, and typically your site will require a minimum head height of 10-15m to be effective.

Turgo Cup Price - £4.80 (Qty 1-24) - £4.50 (Qty 25-72) - £4.30 (Qty 73-144) - £4.10 (Qty 145-240) - £4.00 (Qty 241-480)  >> Call to Order 

Turgo Disc Price - £140  (giving 330mm Jet PCD)  >> Call to Order

Turgo Wheel complete kit including 24 cups, PMG adapter, bolts and Turgo Disc - £287.00  >>  Click Here for PDF Dimensions  >> Call to Order

MiniWater Pelton Turbine (complete system)

We have developed a very cost effective Pelton Turbine using our Pelton Cups and flexible range of Permanent Magnet Generators.  These Pelton Turbines can be used in areas of high head, low water flow rates, and have the ability to be fitted with up to 4 jets, each of up to 20mm in diameter. This flexibility allows the user to best match the turbine's performance to that of the available water head and flow. We can supply your turbine with the correct jetting if you can supply us with the head and flow rate for your site.

Each Pelton Turbine has been designed to allow for easy maintenance of all its component parts. The Pelton Cups are interchangeable and the generator itself should require very little maintenance under normal operation.

Pelton turbines are generally more suited to high head, low flow rate applications, and typically your site will require a minimum head height of 15-20m to be effective.

MiniWater Pelton Turbine Price (without plumbing fitted) - £1,495   >> Call to Order  

Pelton Turbine Price (with all plumbing and jetting supplied to suit your site) £1,995   >> Call to Order

MiniWater Turgo Turbine (complete system)

We have developed a very cost effective Turgo Turbine using our Turgo Cups and flexible range of Permanent Magnet Generators.  These Turgo Turbines can be used in areas of low head, high water flow rates, and have the ability to be fitted with up to 4 jets, each of up to 30mm in diameter. This flexibility allows the user to best match the turbine's performance to that of the available water head and flow.
