Opportunity: Design and build the hydraulic power units, controls and actuators for gate valves as part of a large hydropower plant renovation.
Result: RG Group built and delivered multiple complete hydraulic systems, including hydraulic cylinders, power units and accumulator racks. These systems accurately control the volume of water traveling through the facility. Closed loop control of cylinder position is a key element to the proper functioning of these systems in addition to reserve stored energy to move the actuators in the event of a power failure.
The RG Advantage: RG Group was able to provide completely assembled, fully integrated hydraulic systems, pre-tested and ready for installation. System responsibility, extended warranties and technical know-how were key elements to the success of this project.
