Obermeyer Hydro, Inc. products

Extra head, provided by Obermeyer gates, results in increased power production by maintaining maximum allowable pond elevations at all times. Although head can be increased temporarily by use of flashboards, our gates offer many advantages: The 1 to 3 foot margins typically required to cause failure of flashboards cause unnecessary upstream flooding under high flow conditions. Obermeyer Spillway Gates accurately maintain the optimum pond level for increased power generation while eliminating unnecessary upstream flooding.
