SPECIALISED IN WATER MANAGEMENT PRODUCTS

HISTORY

From its beginnings in 1942, TBS SOEST bv hasnot only been a supplier of manhole covers andgullies, but has also established a reputation as asupplier of 100% watertight cast iron penstocks.

These penstocks found a ready market all overthe world. However, increased agressiveness ofthe environment resulted in more and more cor-rosion problems. Penstocks jammed, maintenancebecame more expensive and special coatings hadto be applied to give protection. The service life ofsuch cast iron penstocks was reduced considerably.

NEW MATERIALS

The introduction of plastics in water managementgave rise to new opportunities.

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) was the first material tobe applied. However, PVC is known to deteriorateon aging. The plasticizers (softeners) disappearfrom the material and the PVC becomes moresusceptible to fracture.

This is the reason why tougher thermoplasticsare now being used although they were and stillare considerably more expensive.

These tough thermoplastics are High DensityPolyethylene (HDPE) and Polypropylene (PP). PPis used for high-temperature applications where-as HDPE is seen as an addition to or even substi-tution for PVC in water works.

HDPE PIONEERS

In 1984 the company Kunststof SysteemTechnologie (Plastic System Technology) inHolland pioneered the use of HDPE for water con-trol products.

In 1992 TBS SOEST bv acquired this companybecause of the opportunities these non-corrosiveproducts offered both within and outside Holland.TBS SOEST bv complemented and perfected itsdelivery programme with this new product line.

Compared with traditional materials HDPE hasmuch better characteristics for application in(waste) water:- corrosion free- good chemical resistance against acids, salts

and alkalis in aqueous solutions, many solvents, oil, etc.

- high UV protection by addition of carbon to the material to stabilise for outside use

- non-toxic so it can be used in food-related industries

- use between -50º C and +70º C- low density and lightweight- a material as easy to machine as wood- dimensional stability - no rotting- no material fatigue- impact resistant- high flexibility- economic design and material

These characteristics result in the followingcustomer benefits:

- long service life because the material is corro-sion free

- no special coatings are required for very aggressive environments

- minimal maintenance- lightweight construction- easy to install and handle- HDPE is a solid material

Possible damage to the outside will not resultin corrosion inside

- flexibility in design. The unique production system enables TBS SOEST bv to make spe-cial designs and provide tailor made solutionswith short project lead times. Products can beadapted to a specific pressure or installation situation.

More than 50 % of the products made are special, tailor made designs.

TBS PENSTOCK SEALING SYSTEM

The TBS PRA-G penstock is a standardised pen-stock with sizes up to diameter 2000 mm to meetpressures of up to 5 meter water column both on-seating and off-seating.

Penstocks can also be supplied for rectangularopenings, with or without a flush invert bottomand for greater water pressures.

A special feature of the PRA-G penstock is itswatertight operation.

The special sealing system is also incorporated inother products such as gates and weirs.

SPECIALISED IN WATER MANAGEMENT PRODUCTS

Although in most countries people still accept lea-kage in penstocks as a fact of life, TBS SOEST bvhas developed a flexible seal that guarantees verylow leakage rates with a maximum of 1% of whatis allowed in the American standard for pen-stocks. (C 501 of the American Water WorksAssociation AWWA).

The unique design enables TBS SOEST bv toguarantee the same low leakage rates on–seatingas well as off-seating.

So, during the design stage of a project no extraattention has to be paid to the exact location ofthe penstock. It has the same watertight proper-ties for both on-seating and off-seating.

In the on-seating situation the EPDM sealing (inthe door) is compressed and pushed against theframe plate. The rounded part of the seal is incomplete contact with the frame.

In the off-seating situation the lip of the EPDMseal still maintains contact with the frame plate.The water pushes the lip onto the frame plate.The TBS sealing system uses the water pressureto obtain a good seal.

There is no weak spot where a leak can occur, asthe seal is one continuous piece for round, square or rectangular openings.

The unique TBS penstock sealing system func-tions without wedges.Penstocks are supplied from our factory fullywatertight and do not have to be adjusted on site.

As the penstock is a self-contained unit it is readyfor operation and requires the customer to dominimal installation work.

After installation, no adjustment with wedges isneeded, ensuring minimal maintenance and thehighest user friendliness.

Be sure to check the smoothness of the wall befo-re installation to obtain the best watertight pro-perties.

SELECTION CRITERIA

We provide a checklist that takes numerous fac-tors into account to help establish what exactly isrequired. People in different countries use diffe-rent names for the same product, such as sluicegate, gate or penstock, and the same name fordifferent products with different functions. Usingthis checklist we can provide the correct solutionfor each situation.

SELECTION CONSIDERATIONS

To determine which product is suitable for whichsituation the following have to be taken into con-sideration:

- dimensions of the opening- flow direction – is the pressure from the front

or back or both?- what is the maximum water pressure in

meter water column?- is it wall or channel mounting?- operational functions such as local or remote

operation / rising or non-rising spindle

DIRECTION OF FLOW

On-seating pressure means the front of the penstock is under pressure.

Off-seating pressure means the back of the penstock is under pressure.

On-seating and off-seating pressure means pressure from both sides.

WATER PRESSURE: FOUR-SIDED SEAL

VERSUS THREE-SIDED SEAL

If the pressure is higher than the height of thedoor and the customer wants to isolate the flow,a penstock type PRA-G with a continuous sealaround the opening is required.

We call this four-sided seal; double acting (sea-ling in both directions).

A penstock type PRA-G has the seal in the doorand the lip directed inwards to withstand the off-seating pressure.

If the pressure is equal to the height of the doorand the customer wants to block the flow, a sluice gate type PKS with a continuous seal on three sides of the opening is required.

We call this three-sided seal; in most cases singleacting (sealing in on-seating direction).

The standard application is to block the flow inone direction: on-seating.

In this design the seal is placed in the frame plateand the lip directed outwards to withstand on-seating pressure. This is used for products suchas sluice gates type PKS and for overflow gates,type POS/DPOS.

Off-seating pressure should be clearly stated.

WATER PRESSURE DETERMINATION

We measure the pressure on the penstock inmeters water column by taking the distance frombottom of opening to the highest water level.

INSTALLATION SITUATION / SILL OF PENSTOCK

The most common installation situation for pen-stocks is wall mounting.

Be sure there is sufficient space below the opening to mount the penstock. See the point labelled 1 in the diagram above.The PRA-G penstocks have a 100 mm to 125 mmsill depending on the dimensions of the opening(see Z-measurement in following penstock tables).

A penstock with a standard sill always requires arecess to accommodate the bottom of the pen-stock. This can allow dirt to settle in the recess.

As an alternative, a flush invert bottom can beincorporated in the design of the penstock sill.The advantage of such a seal is that it preventsany accumulation of dirt around the opening asthere is no recess in the bottom where the dirtcan settle.

MOUNTING POSSIBILITIES

WALL MOUNTING

The most common mounting is on concrete wallsusing anchor studs and chemical capsules.

The seal between the wall and the frame plate ismade using a neoprene gasket.

Before installation always check the smoothnessof the wall. Unevenness in the wall can seriouslyaffect the function of the penstock.

CHANNEL MOUNTING

Channel mounting is generally used for sluicegates that seal on three sides up to door height.These products are often installed in channels,although wall mounting is also possible.Channel mounting can be done by mounting thegate using an additional stainless steel or HDPEframe. This is often used in existing channels without arebate / recess.

If there is a recess in the channel the valve can begrouted in.

This can also be done in combination with a flushinvert seal at the bottom.

An interesting and easy installation option ismounting in a recess using HDPE wedges. The advantage of this system is that the sluicegate can be easily removed.

PENSTOCK TYPE PRA - G

WALL MOUNTING

RECEIPT OF GOODSOn delivery the customer must check the goodssupplied by TBS for completeness and damage orbreakages. If the goods are not complete or aredamaged the customer must respond by return,but at the latest within 1 week after receipt ofgoods.

The customer can not claim under guarantee if:- these installation instructions are not strictly

followed.- on installation of the goods supplied the

conditions for installation do not conform with our installation manual.

- a third party has modified the goods suppliedby TBS. (The penstock forms a complete “selfcontained” unit that may not be disassembledor modified by any party other than personnelof TBS.)

Take good notice of the maximum pressure forwhich the products are designed.

PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION- The penstock is designed for mounting

against a smooth and clean wall.Smoothness of wall is in accordance with

DIN 18 202 table 3 item 7 with a maximum

deformation of 2 mm over a distance of

2 meters.

- Check the door is completely closed. If not close the door. Before installation use a straightedge to check the smoothness of the wall at the location of the penstock.

- Also check the concrete wall for small local pits and lumps so that the neoprene tape (which will be fixed to the back plate) can function properly and seal well between the frame plate and the wall.

- Moving the penstock on site has to be done carefully. Lifting the penstock must be done vertically.

INSTALLATION- Position the penstock in such manner that the

passage of the penstock is exactly in front of the outlet in the civil structure.

- Mark the two upper frame plate anchor holes on the wall. Marking can be done by pre dril-ling of the holes (through the frame).

- Remove the penstock.- Drill the two (marked) holes and mount the

anchors as instructed by the supplier of the chemical anchors. Note the time required for the hardening of the chemical substance.

- Mount the penstock by hanging it on these two anchors, after they have been fixed in place.

- Check the penstock is positioned vertically and mark the positions of all the remaining mounting holes onto the wall. Marking can be done by pre drilling. When pre drilling the holes in the horizontal

position do not damage the HDPE frame

plate, which is relatively soft and flexible.

- Remove the penstock.- Drill all the remaining holes.- Drill the holes for the wedge anchors 55 mm

deep into the concrete wall (for the countersunk head bolt M10x60).

- Place the chemical capsules in the holes and drill the anchor studs into the holes.

- Remove the resin of the chemical capsule that is coming out of the holes. Strictly follow the instructions of the supplier

of the chemical anchors. Note the time required

for the hardening of the chemical substance.

- Fix the neoprene sealing tape all round the opening and over the anchor holes at the back of the frame plate. The neoprene tape may possibly overlap at the edges of the frame.

- Make the holes for the anchors in the neo-prene tape.

- Position the penstock and put it over the anchor bars.

- Only tighten the two upper anchor bars.

- First mount the wedge anchors above and below the door as instructed by the wedge anchor supplier.

INSTRUCTIONS

Modifications reserved.3.26

INSTALLATION TBS SOEST bvbbR

SPECIALISED IN WATER MANAGEMENT PRODUCTS

- Start with the anchors in the middle above the door and work your way equally from centre to left/right side of penstock in order toprevent deformations in the frame plate. Tighten the countersunk head bolts into the wedge anchors evenly so that a good seal to the wall is obtained without deforming the frame plate.

- Do the same for the anchors below the door. - The countersunk head bolts must not protrude

as they might damage the seal on the sliding movement of the door.

- Than tighten the anchors in the guides gradu-ally one by one so that a good seal to the wallis obtained without deforming the penstock itself (frame plate and guides). Check the smoothness using a straightedge. Work your way from the bolts in the highest locations to the lowest; after tightening the bolts repeat

once again to check if the anchors are hand

tight.

INSTALLATION OF THE SPINDLE

EXTENSION (OPTIONAL)- Put the spindle extension with guide bracket

on top of the threaded spindle of the penstock.- Position the guide bracket approx. 250 mm

below the deck or upper side of the spindle extension.

- Mark the anchor holes for the guide bracket onto the wall when the spindle extension is inposition, vertical and straight, and temporarilyremove the extension.

- Drill the holes and mount the anchors as instructed by the supplier of the chemical anchors. Note the time required for the harde-ning of the chemical substance.

- Mount the spindle extension again and fix theguide bracket.

- Afterwards adjust the location of the adjustableblock on the guide bracket so that the adjustableblock is positioned at right angles to the exten-sion. Some space for moving the spindle extension will remain in the guide bracket.

COMMISSIONING

- Remove any dirt present on penstock. Especially clean the opening between the doorand the frame plate as this is a place where dirtcan easily accumulate.

- Not removing small particles as grit could

damage the seal when opening the door.

- Penstocks until dia. 400mm or square 300 mminclusive are equipped with polyacetal nut-block and for this reason never require greaseon the spindle. Only grease the spindle when the penstock is supplied with a bronze nutblock.

- Moisturize the sealant before operation /

commissioning.

- Check the functioning of the penstock by openingand closing the door.

- Do not over force the spindle. Increasing torquemeans that you have reached the end of the stroke. Do not continue operation. Over forcing the spindle can cause serious damage of the penstock

MAINTENANCE

- Check the penstock by opening and closing thedoor at least two times a year.

- Remove dirt on spindle and door. - Grease the spindle if required.

INSTALLATION OF ELECTRIC ACTUATORS

- Installation of actuators must be effected by experienced staff following the exact guide lines of the supplier of the actuator.

- TBS supplies the actuators with pre-settings ofthe required operation torque for the specific penstock.
