of 400 million m3. The fourth extension to the Grande Dixence hydropower scheme -the new station at Bieudron, leaves all previous limits be­hind: the installed output from each of its three five-jet turbines is not less than 423 MW. The maximum head of 1,869 m also outclasses everything known previously. The scope of VA TECH HYDRO includes model investigation of the run­ners, design and supply of the five nozzle Pelton turbines with digital speed governors as well as the supply of three spherical valves with a rated diameter of 1,400 mm and design pressure 203 bars and manifolds.
Besides the Pelton turbines and the gen­erators VA TECH HYDRO supplied the complete electrical equipment as well as main transformers, station service trans­formers, station service and unit auxilliary equipment , generator busbars, switch gears, protection and excitation equip­ment as well as the entire control and instrumentation of the power stations. The two vertical units were commissioned in 1990.
