Fishflow Innovations, in collaboration with Pentair Nijhuis, has developed a fish-friendly low-pressure turbine. The turbine has been proven to be fish-friendly and achieves similar efficiencies to conventional low-pressure turbines. It is also possible to retrofit existing turbines with this fish-friendly application. This patented fish-friendly turbine can be custom developed and manufactured by Nijhuis Pompen (operating under the brand name Pentair Fairbanks Nijhuis) and Fishflow Innovations for all types of business situations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1449059997398{margin-bottom: 35px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;71239&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;borderpx&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;container&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1449060013623{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_separator color=&#8221;#e2e2e2&#8243; type=&#8221;normal&#8221; thickness=&#8221;1&#8243; up=&#8221;&#8221; down=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;dotted&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;container&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2>Functioning of the low-pressure turbine<\/h2>\n<p>The fish-friendliness of the turbine is achieved, among other factors, through the specially developed design of the rotor. This creates a favorable flow in the water that helps the fish migrate safely through the turbine. Additionally, the gap between the rotor blades is wider than in conventional turbines, significantly reducing the chance of collision with fish. There is no compromise on efficiency compared to a conventional turbine.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;71430&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;appear&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;container&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1449060026262{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_tta_tabs style=&#8221;flat&#8221; active_section=&#8221;1&#8243;][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Product properties&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1444300654474-2bfb86dc-fd3a&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fish-friendly<\/li>\n<li>Efficiency of &gt;90%.<\/li>\n<li>Horizontal and vertical configurations available.<\/li>\n<li>Turbines produced according to project specifications.<\/li>\n<li>Possibility to replace existing turbines with a fish-friendly version.<\/li>\n<li>No compromise on performance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_tabs][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;container&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1449060013623{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_separator color=&#8221;#e2e2e2&#8243; type=&#8221;normal&#8221; thickness=&#8221;1&#8243; up=&#8221;&#8221; down=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;dotted&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2>Realised projects<\/h2>\n<p>Take a look at some impressions of projects featuring low-pressure turbines realized by Pentair Nijhuis in collaboration with FishFlow Innovations.[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;71495,71496,71497,71498&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_no&#8221; autoplay=&#8221;yes&#8221; wrap=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;borderpx&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;container&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;&#8221; padding_bottom=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1449060013623{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_separator color=&#8221;#e2e2e2&#8243; type=&#8221;normal&#8221; thickness=&#8221;1&#8243; up=&#8221;&#8221; down=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;dotted&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2>Request a quote<\/h2>\n<p>Are you interested in the low-pressure water turbine from Pentair Fairbanks Nijhuis &amp; FishFlow Innovations?
