A comprehensive set of specifications come into play when considering the replacement or refurbishment of aging infrastructure.
Greater emphasis now exists on characteristics affecting water savings, fish migration, down time, operational risks, environmental footprints and energy consumption.
AWMA’s research and development team are able to customise gate designs to ensure we can ‘drop’ onto site an all-inclusive product that meets site conditions and customer requirements.
State Water Corporation have replaced an aging drop board structure with a new 4-Bay LayFlat regulator.
The LayFlat is a tilting gate allowing smooth flows over the gate, providing a low velocity fish passage, maximum clear water, safe operational performance and accurate flow regulation.
The multi-bay LayFlat regulator can be manually operated by a single SWC employee under safe work conditions.
