HPP and dam revamping works are critically important to ensure the efficient economic cycle of energy plants that require substantial financial and human investments. Additionally, increasing the capacity of an existing HPP or dam or adding equipment such as a Grid Cleaning Machine also falls within the scope of HPP and dam revamping works that can be applied to an operational plant.
At SETA ÇELİK, we are ready to offer you unlimited services in HPP and dam revamping works, backed by our years of experience in manufacturing and on-site installation.
How Are HPP and Dam Revamping Works Done for System Efficiency?
When discussing HPP and dam revamping works, it is necessary to consider all components of a plant from the ground up. This includes intake screens designed to catch debris in intake and spillway structures, service and shutoff gates, gate lifting mechanisms, overhead and portal cranes, and sliding valves; as well as transition joints, pipes, elbows, expansion joints, fixed and sliding bearings, and manholes in the forced pipe network; butterfly valves and control pipes within the plant building; and tailwater gates in the discharge line. Of course, the maintenance and revamping of the turbine and all related equipment form the most crucial part under the umbrella of HPP and dam revamping works. The erosive effect of water, which reaches the highest kinetic energy level and strikes the turbine blades to be converted into electrical energy, necessitates periodic maintenance and inspection due to material quality and resistance to corrosion. This makes the turbine maintenance one of the most critical aspects of HPP and dam revamping works.
What Does Capacity Increase Mean in HPP and Dam Revamping Works?
As mentioned above, increasing the capacity of an existing HPP or dam is also covered under HPP and dam revamping works. In addition to the parameters specified in the current project report, when suitable conditions arise, equipment such as grids, gates, and valves can be added to the system to ensure greater energy production from the existing plant. SETA ÇELİK offers a wide range of HPP and dam revamping services for the workshop manufacturing and on-site installation of these additional equipment. You can easily benefit from our services by contacting us via phone or email.
Equipment Replacement and Addition
Replacement of gate lifting mechanisms (manual, geared motorized, or hydraulic systems) that fail to work efficiently due to water load and ineffective operational preferences, or the addition of a Grid Cleaning Machine to remove debris and silt that clog the intake screens and hinder their ability to perform their duty, is part of the HPP and dam revamping works provided by SETA ÇELİK. These solutions enhance system efficiency and help to ensure smoother operations.
The Importance of Corporate Experience and Quality in HPP and Dam Revamping Works
Unlike newly constructed plants, HPP and dam revamping works require experienced and specialized personnel who know exactly when and where to intervene. SETA ÇELİK, with its extensive experience in resolving various faults, conducting periodic maintenance and inspections, and performing the most cost-effective solutions for part replacement and installation, is committed to being your reliable partner for all HPP and dam revamping needs. We are pleased to assist you in finding the best solutions for your projects.
Work comes first at SETA, which has an awareness of its team, from business partners.
