GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Orbinox model MU is a 4 sided sealing penstock. The gates are suitable for different types of applications with a highly versatile flow control for waste water treatment plants, irrigation, hydraulic works and hydro-electric power plants. the MU model has a unique seal design that can achieve minimal equal seating and unseating (bidirectional) leakage rates. Sizes 1300 mm x 1300 mm up to 2000 mm x 2000 mm are available in both uni-directional (only suitable for seating water heads) and bi-directional configurations. The maximum leakage rate is lower than the maximum allowable recommended by DIN 19569-4 (class 5) and AWWA C561-04 under normal conditions. Orbinox also designs and manufactures the MU model penstock in larger sizes, for more demanding service For more information please contact an Orbinox CONSTRUCTION DESIGN The MU penstock is manufactured in general accordance to DIN 19569-4. Other standards such as AWWA C561 -04 The standard MU model is manufactured in stainless steel which has a higher corrosion resistance in many applications which results into a longer life cycle with little or no maintenance. Other materials of construction are available upon request, such as AISI 904L, Duplex VALVE SOLUTIONS IN MORE THAN 70 COUNTRIES ORBINOX reserves the right to change specifications without notice ORBINOX CANADA, ORBINOX USA, ORBINOX BRAZIL, ORBINOX SPAIN, ORBINOX UK, FRANCE, ORBINOX GERMANY, ORBINOX INDIA, ORBINOX CHINA, ORBINOX S.E.A.

VALVE SOLUTIONS IN MORE THAN 70 COUNTRIES STEM EXTENSIONS Clear Stem Protector Straight Floor Stand Stem Extension In many cases, the operating floor level is located substantially higher than the opening. In order to be able to operate the gate, stem extensions are necessary. Stem guides are used to limit the "unsupported" length of the stem extension in order to avoid any buckling failure. The stem guide has a UHWMPE guide to reduce friction between the guide and the extension. Non-Rising Stem Configuration As standard, non-rising stem gate configurations are used with self-contained...
