overshot gate for sale

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

The basic gate design uses a rectangular panel mild steel panel that is mounted to a piano hinge at the forward bottom edge of the gate leaf.    This leaf is raised and lowered using a cable drum hoist to control the upstream water level.

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.

Waterman Self Regulating Tide Control Gates are ideal for tidal wetlands preservation and restoration. The gates restore tidal flushing of marshes without flooding of upland property behind dikes and levees.Learn More

Waterman C-8 Slide Ditch Gates are the most advanced, easiest operating, tightest sealing gate of its type and price in the field of water control. Most commonly used on ditch turnouts and similar low head operations, this ruggedly designed, press-formed, all steel gate holds in any position for easy flow regulation, seals positively, slides easily, and does not load with sand or silt.Learn More

The Overshot Gate is simply an overflow style adjustable weir. It consists of a rectangular steel panel, hinged across the bottom, which is raised and lowered by two cables attached to the upper corners of the gate leaf. Basically, liken it to a drawbridge placed in a canal.

The upstream water level is controlled (and can be measured) by raising or lowering the gate leaf via the cable hoist system which can be operated either manually or electrically. Hydraulically, the overshot gate is a moveable weir.

Split Gate – a WT innovation producing the best Check Structure options available– two blades in one frame (bottom up and top down). Standardsingle or double stem for debris/silt removal and emergency large flow dumps and Independent Blade where both blades operate independently for double blade automation.

“Smart” Sluice Gates – another WT innovation –  WT gates with integrated Controller (PLC), add telemetry for integrated Actuator and RTU in one enclosure.

CableDrive is Rubicon’s actuation system designed to provide precision gate position accuracy and repeatability in harsh environments. The drive is a wire rope (cable) and drum mechanism that provides positive drive in both the raise and lower directions. It is designed for high duty cycle operation and provides precise gate positioning to within ±0.5mm (±0.02in).

The drive is managed by Rubicon’s SolarDrive technology – a purpose-built integrated circuit board that manages gate positioning, solar power regulation, battery charge and the pedestal user interface.

A penstock is a water control gate or structure that controls flow. Penstocks may also be known as Sluice gates, Slide gates or Stopgates. Penstocks are designed for flow regulation, diversion, level control or isolation.

AWMA is a renown penstock supplier, manufacturing high quality, high performance water control gates for all industries. Aluminium and stainless steel water management products are supplied as standard designs or tailor made to meet specific site requirements. Technical Sales Managers located in Australia and New Zealand are available for early contractor involvement and site inspections as required.

During the first 6 years, all the business I did was based in the United States. I did gates in California; Central Florida; Idaho; Port Arthur, Texas; and Utah. There’s one gate that we do, and that nobody else really got into, called the overshot gate.

Frank Stang: We just completed the largest single project that I’ve ever done in my 35 years in the business at Bassano Dam, which is one of the biggest reservoirs in southern Alberta for the storage of irrigation water. It is about 21⁄2 hours from our plant. We built 10 epoxy-coated gates, each 35 feet wide and 14 feet high, complete with electric cable-driven hoist systems, stainless-steel embedments, 10 emergency stop logs, and the lifting device. We just completed the installation of all these components. The owner, Eastern Irrigation District, commissioned them in April of this year. The total investment cost was in the $50 million range.

Trevor Hazell: The front skin plate was 3/8 plate—that’s probably the most significant measurement for a radial gate. There are also some really large I-beams that reinforce the back side of the gate, which is 18 inches deep. It involved a massive amount of steel.

Trevor Hazell: The radial gate itself was actually built in one piece. Two arms are bolted onto that, and those two arms are bolted onto the trunnion beams that are attached to the wall. Instream completed everything from the fabrication of the components to their installation, commissioning, and testing. I was on site as the supervisor for the installation of all 10 gates. From start to finish, each gate took 10 days, including all the bottom sills and side-rubbing plates that were embedded in the concrete structure, all the secondary concrete, and the lifting in of the gates, hoists, and hoist decks. It took us about 100 days in total.

Frank Stang: These gates are a part of the emergency spillway for the dam. About 5 years ago, there was a lot of rain and a lot of flooding. They just about lost this dam because they couldn’t spill enough water through the ordinary gates, of which there are about 25. After this emergency, Eastern Irrigation District, which is one of the biggest irrigation districts in this area, along with the Alberta-based irrigation consultant MPE Engineering, decided that it needed to incorporate another structure. The district built this emergency spillway for that reason.

Kris Polly: I understand that you’ve done a lot of work on similar gates for the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and the Army Corps of Engineers in the United States. Is that correct?
