Sluice valves operate on the same rising gate principle as gate valves, but are specifically designed and tested to Australian water utility standards (AS 2638).
Penstocks use a similar gate mechanism but are typically installed in open channel or concrete wall applications where a flat plate slides in guides to control water flow, rather than in a pressurised pipeline. Extended spindle options allow operation from the surface for buried installations up to 6m deep.
