The lowest fall for the operation of a Betta CGH is 2 meters, always remembering that this fall does not need to be vertical, can be achieved fall along the natural slope of the terrain. The lowest flow rate for the set is 20 liters per second, equivalent to a full 4-inch tube. This flow rate may be lower if we increase the water fall.
No. The TurboBomba Betta and the Betta Hydroelectric Generating Plant are separate equipment. This, however, does not prevent to put the two equipments together in the same use.
The model of the hydraulic turbine, the generated power and the cost of the Betta CGH will be defined according to the technical characteristics of the chosen place for the installation of the equipment, being able to exist about 30 models of hydraulic turbine for a same power.
The price of CGH Betta is directly proportional to the height of the fall and the water flow rate for the drive (see Dimensioning). For a single power, as an example 25 KVA energy, there are more than 8 different models of turbines, each with a certain price.
The Betta Hydroelectric Power Plant must be installed in a room built for the same, in wood or masonry, to protect electrical and electronic components of the equipment.
One of the great advantages of the types of hydraulic turbine that we manufacture (Michell Banki and Pelton), is the great flexibility of flow. With up to 60% of the maximum turbine flow, the efficiency of the turbine will be the same, that is, the flow pumped or the generated power will fall proportionally without the equipment stops working.
