Open Channel Gates (Slide Gates)

Open Channel Gates (Slide Gates)

Engineered for Precise Flow Diversion in Concrete Channels

FibRos Heavy-Duty Open Channel Gates are precision-engineered to deliver reliable flow control, fluid diversion, and drop-tight isolation exclusively within open concrete channels. Unlike wall-mounted penstocks that seal a fully submerged pipe, these gates utilize a specialized 3-sided sealing architecture designed for in-channel fluid dynamics. Manufactured to exceed stringent international EPC standards (AWWA and BS), FibRos open channel gates are specified by global engineering consultants for managing high-volume fluid dynamics in municipal wastewater treatment, large-scale irrigation networks, and desalination plant channels.
