XM4 penstock
4-sided sealing

The XM4 penstock is characterised by its uncomplicated maintenance. The replacement of all wearing parts is possible in the installed state without dismantling the penstock from the structure. In addition, the XM4 also offers very good sealing performance, as its double lip seal is completely in contact even in intermediate positions.
