Tubin Turgo

The Turgo Impulse design is one of three options in the Gilkes range. It has been developed to be a simple impulse type machine with a higher specific speed than a Pelton. The design therefore allows a larger jet of water to be directed at an angle onto the runner. Covering the boundary between a Pelton and Francis machine, the Turgo turbines prove to deal extremely well with "dirty” without any detriment to performance.
