Power Machines delivered the hydraulic turbine impeller to the Ust-Srednekanskaya HPP

The new impeller for the Ust-Srednekanskaya HPP was manufactured in St. Petersburg at Leningradsky Metallichesky Zavod. Its diameter is 5.8 m, its height is more than 3 m, and its weight is 86 tons. The impeller was delivered to Magadan by sea, and after being reloaded at the port, it arrived on a special motor trailer to the construction site of the Ust-Srednekanskaya HPP.

The impellers on the first two hydropower units of the station are planned to be replaced in 2022. The project will increase the capacity of the Ust-Srednekanskaya HPP by 117 MW.

The equipment was manufactured in accordance with the agreement between Power Machines and JSC Ust-Srednekanskaya HPP, named after A.F. Dyakov, which was signed in 2019. The obligations of Power Machines include the manufacture and supply to Ust-Srednekanskaya HPP of two radial-axial impellers for hydropower units Nos. 1 and 2, as well as installation supervision of the equipment supplied.

The second impeller is expected to be delivered to the plant in April 2021.
