StopGate modules

The StopGate modules are normally designed for installation at the bottom of the intake channel with a civil work apron wall extending up from the top of the opening, to deck level. However, the modular construction of the gates makes it possible to locate one module above the other so that it extends above the highest water level, thereby obviating the necessity for a concrete apron wall. Optional side guidance rollers fitted to the StopGate module assist the smooth location of each piece of gate assembly into the guides and alignment of the seals on the sealing face. A unique cill sensing device is incorporated to prevent accidental release of the lifting beam in the event of the modules jamming in the guides while being lowered.
