Safety, Reliability and Versatility
TEMEC CMXT Autonomous Gate
For high flow and low head projects. Fully autonomous, robust and reliable solution.
It allows modifying the regulated levels by manual or automated set point changes.
► Features
For projects with high flow rates and low head, the optimal choice is the implementation of an MXT mixed level gate. This equipment provides precise control over the downstream level. By having a downstream control section that allows a known flow curve, specific flows can be derived in a constant way, as long as the level of the intake works allows it.
These solutions involve small or medium-sized civil works, including one or more gates controlled by floats and ballast weights. The absence of motors and sensors contributes to the robustness and reliability of this equipment.
They enable set point changes to be made on the regulated levels if the customer requires it, either manually or with the automation of small devices inside the gate. This automation is focused on the management of the set point change, not on the adjustment operations of the gate itself in case of fluctuations in the water flow, a situation that will always continue autonomously by the gate's floats. This ensures efficient, trouble-free and reliable operation in severe and variable weather conditions.
► Tips about use
This solution includes equipment inspired by a simple hydraulic design, totally autonomous, robust and free of any mechanical complication, allowing it to adapt to the most severe working conditions.

Safety and Reliability
TEMEC CAB1 Autonomous Gate
Guarantee of constant downstream regulation, restricting inflow to demand. Completely autonomous, robust and reliable solution.
This solution does not allow modification of the regulated levels once they have been set at the construction site.
► Features
This equipment is highly adaptable to most projects that raise the water level to control bypass. With an extremely simple design, they consist of a trapezoidal sector gate linked to a system of float and ballast weights, which opens or closes according to the upstream head and the demanded water requirement.
This system operates completely autonomously. The regulation of the flow to be bypassed can be performed by a slide gate, a weir (for fixed flow rates) or by Distributors with a limited variation range for specific flow rates. The absence of motors and sensors contributes to the robustness and reliability of this equipment.

Deliveries with modular measurement
TEMEC MO Distributors for Manual or Automated operation
Flow delivery guarantee in gravity discharge outlets. Robust and reliable solution.
This solution does not allow modification of the installation levels on site.
► Features
These solutions propose the use of modular measurement equipment to control deliveries at the outlets for ecological flow. They are mounted on the crest of the headworks itself, always assuming that the level variations are compatible with the operating ranges.
For limited level variations, in the range of approximately 70 cm or less, the implementation of Distributor (TEMEC's Modulo de Orificio) is recommended. These consist of calibrated orifices for different predefined flow rates. In this way, within their operating range, these devices will provide a specific flow rate according to the user's preferences.
The absence of any complex mechanisms or lifting system contributes to the robustness and reliability of this equipment.
