Platypus Power's simple design and use of the highest quality materials means long life and low maintenance.

The innovative hybrid Platypus impulse runner is directly coupled to the generator. 316 marine grade stainless steel casing and runner resist abrasion and corrosion.

Nozzles are easily interchangeable to suit seasonal flows.

One dump resistance is all that is needed for three and single phase.


REMOTE MONITORING
An integral Environmental Energies remote monitoring and/or control system can be tailored to your specific needs. Easy to interpret, user-friendly information on water flow, filter condition, bearings and other parameters can be electronically relayed to you, or to our offices or agents, by telephone line, mobile or satellite network.

It is essential for your safety and the correct operation of these machines that they are installed in accordance with the relevant provisions of AS 3000 and AS 3010 and/or other appropriate standards in the country of installation.
