Hydromechanical & Dam Gate Applications

Hydraulic cylinders for dam gates, radial (segment) gates, spillway flaps and water intake structures. Hydromechanical applications demanding long stroke, high side load, corrosion protection and high reliability at low cycle counts.

Typical applications

Vertical gate hoist

Open/close drive of vertical dam gates; long stroke, load holding and position accuracy decisive.

Bore 150-320 mm · Stroke 2,000-7,000 mm · Double-acting

Radial gate drive

Rotation of segment gates; synchronized twin-cylinder operation, pivoted mounting.

Bore 120-250 mm · Stroke 1,500-5,000 mm · Synchronized twin cylinders

Spillway flap

Water level control via flap tilt; exposed outdoor operation, corrosion protection critical.

Bore 100-200 mm · Stroke 800-3,000 mm · Corrosion-protected surfaces

Market note

Gate cylinders in hydropower and water infrastructure projects require project-based engineering; HPS works from customer drawings and project specifications. Dam gate cylinders are part of the HPS production range.
