Pelton Turbines | Pelton Impulse Turbine Manufacturers
The Pelton is an impulse type water turbine invented by Lester Allan Pelton in the 1870s. Peltons are the preferred turbine for hydro-power where the available water source has relatively high head at low flow rates. The jet(s) of water strike the splitter edge of the double bucket (runner) and is turned through an angle of nearly 180° before falling under gravity into the discharge channel
