Fixed Cone Valves / Hollow Jet Valves

For Environmentally Friendly Discharge

In hydropower plants, flood control dams, irrigation dams, or detention reservoirs, our hollow-jet valves are used for an environment friendly discharge of water downstream or into a tailwater pool while simultaneously enriching the water with oxygen. The hollow-jet valves, made from high quality steel in combination with an elastic/metal seal and integrated jet deflector, facilitate cavitation- and vibration- free energy dissipation.

Both electric and hydraulic operation allow for excellent modulating performance. Electric heaters for use in cold climates and other specific customer requirements can be implemented. The control system can be designed such that the control room can monitor valve position at all times. This allows for precise control of the discharge flow rate. Hollow-jet valves from ADAMS have a decade long track record of successful operation and stand out due to their great longevity and durability.
