Everything for the safe and needs-based operation of your hydroelectric power station.

POWER NEEDS CONTROL
Hydropower only becomes really efficient and reliable when the materials, the mechanics and the control technology work together perfectly. Whether it is the control and protection technology of the power station or real-time monitoring via smartphone and a tablet, regardless the location: With All-in-one solutions from WKV, you have technology and profits safely under control.
SET THE TASK - WE WILL CONTROL IT!
- With electrical actuators, hydraulic units or mechanical systems, we control turbines and valves in a way that achieves the highest performance.
- Speed control only for synchronisation or for the premier class of full island systems, we have the best solution for every case. The analogue control system, which has been optimised over decades, has already proven itself in the most complex control cases. The PLC-based digital speed control, on the other hand, is a lean and efficient solution for simple applications.
- Different hydroelectric power stations require different control options. Among other things, we do:
- Water level control
- Power control
- Voltage and Reactive power control
- Automated surge operation
- And much more...
