Speed Multiplier - MTH series

Representative Image Only

The MTH series speed multiplier is driven by hydraulic turbines, making it ideal for small hydroelectric plant projects with low water heads. One of its key features is the low-speed shaft, supported by slide bearings compatible with the turbine's clearance, ensuring greater safety and stability during operation.
