GH-60 / GH-66 Weir Gate
Precise Water Elevation Control and Flow Measurement
The Golden Harvest Inc. Weir Gates are expertly designed to manage upstream water elevation and provide rough flow estimation through notched gates and a unique downward-opening mechanism. Functioning similarly to slide gates, weir gates stand out by allowing water to flow over the top of the gate, offering both precision control and versatility in water management applications.
Innovative Design and Performance
Golden Harvest Weir Gates feature advanced engineering for reliable operation:
Efficient Upstream Control: The downward-opening design ensures accurate upstream water elevation management.
Flexible Gate Shapes: Available with Cipoletti, Rectangular, or V-Notch shapes at the top of the slide to suit specific flow requirements.
Calibrated Gauges: Optional gauges mounted on the slide provide visual flow measurement for enhanced monitoring.
Durable Material Options
GH-66 Stainless Steel Construction: Superior corrosion resistance for long-lasting performance.
GH-60 Aluminum Construction: Lightweight and versatile for a wide range of applications.
Both models are available with top seals for complete isolation when required.
Designed for Versatility and Durability
Golden Harvest Weir Gates adapt to various project specifications:
Custom Width-to-Height Configurations: Ideal for gates substantially wider than they are tall. Tandem lifts are recommended when the width exceeds twice the height for precise slide alignment. For smaller gates (48" or below), UHMW rub strips or anti-racking devices ensure stability.
Optimized for Seating Conditions: Larger widths are best mounted in a seating head condition to maintain seal integrity. Gates can be engineered to handle unseating pressures when necessary.
Multiple Operating Options: Standard lifts include handwheel or enclosed gear types. For automated operations, electric motor operators can be paired with level or flow sensors for frequent adjustments.
Key Features
