Project Scope:
Design, supply, install and commissioning of a 6 jet Pelton turbine complete with electrical and control systems. The inlet valve and hydraulic system were also included. Generator 1980kVA, Vertical Synchronous 11kV.
This project was for a turnkey, 1600 kW, 6 jet Pelton Turbine energy recovery system, located within the Adelaide Metropolitan area at the Terminal Storage Reservoir. The system is designed to utilise the excess head in the penstock that feeds the reservoir, and feed electricity back into the grid. The turbine was designed and manufactured by Tyco Tamar at our works. An AVK synchronous generator were installed, generating at 11 kV. The Generator switchgear was supplied by Schneider. The turbine control system and hydraulic power pack was also manufactured at Tyco Tamar’s works. Tyco O’Donnell Griffin were contracted to undertake the civil works and to perform the mechanical and electrical installation.
