Steinsau hydroelectric weirs

Meanwhile, in the existing weir, in the river Ill off Erstein, the LANDY hydropower jacks installed. A total of six augers, each with a diameter of 2.5 metres and weighing 7 tonnes, will produce about one million kWh per year. This amount of renewable energy is good for about 250 households.

Commissioning of the hydropower plant will take place in September 2017.

Screw applied in silos

For ESI Eurosilo at Purmerend, Landustrie has delivered a total of 35 pieces of fearsome-looking jacks, or transport screws, in 2019 and 2020. A striking feature of the jacks is the serrated shoring edge and the material used, namely Creusabro 4800.

Lightweight Wetterfretter

Landustrie's renowned dirt cutting Wetterfretter pumps are now also available in a compact and lightweight version. By adapting the pump and motor housing, a compact pump has been realised with a weight of only 35 kg. In case of inspection or maintenance, the pump can easily be lifted by hand. Especially at mini pumping stations where no lifting facility is available, this pump offers a solution.

Major hydro project in Alsace

The existing Steinsau weir on the River Ill near Erstein is being fitted with six pieces of LANDY hydropower jacks. The weir dates from the late 19th century and ensures that the downstream regions of Erstein and Strasbourg are not flooded during high water. Part of the restoration and renovation of the weir is the installation of screw turbines to generate renewable energy.

Commissioned by the Zuiderzeeland Water Board, Landustrie is renovating the Piet Oberman polder pumping station in Tollebeek. The open screw pump dating from the 1970s will be fitted with new parts and converted from a grease-lubricated to a water-lubricated pump. The non-return valves and control box will also be renewed.
