1 weir type penstock guarantees wastewater disposal for 45,000 people
Our customer in Hamburg replaced an elementary weir type penstock in a sewer. The new XL4 weir type penstock 900 × 900 mm for a water column of 7.6 m regulates the inflows and outflows in the sewer and thus ensures wastewater disposal for the majority of the inhabitants of the Hamburg Elbe island of Wilhelmsburg.
Installation challenge:
- Poor wall quality of the sewer
- Very limited installation space
- Installation work had to be carried out quickly due to necessary road closures
Safe & fast implementation:
- Compensation for the poor wall quality using a 2000 × 2000 mm cover plate before the DN 1500 opening
- Ready-to-install delivery of the weir type penstock and therefore quick installation with simple stud bolts
