Waterman Tilting Weir (Overshot) Gates are an overflow-type gate used to control levels in canals, basins and other agricultural, municipal and industrial applications.

WATERMAN TILTING WEIR (OVERSHOT) GATESare an overflow-type gate used to control levels in canals, basins and other agricultural, municipal and industrial applications.

... TILTING WEIR GATES allow for precise upstream water control to tight tolerances. An inherently safe option, the gate allows for surge flows and debris to pass over.

... bottom-up discharge flow control, debris sluicing, and automatic emergency dump, and top-downsurface control and/or measuring weir. Easily deployed and programmed, cost efficient, reliable. Debris control made easy.

Overshot gates (also known as pivoting weir gates) are used to control upstream water levels. Versatility, efficiency, and safety are the primary reasons the Fresno Overshot Gate is the method of choice for municipal, agricultural, and industrial canal water control.

The channel in made of clear acrylic with an undershot weir at inlet and an overshot weir at discharge. Water is admitted to the channel through a cylinder with a stilling baffle to reduce turbulence. Flow rate can be controlled by a flow control valve of the Hydraulics Bench. A dye injection system is installed at the channel inlet to observe flow patterns around models.
