1. Read this First

2. Place the canal - pipe assembly in the stream and support the pipe end so that the

pipe is not touching the stream bed. The lower end of the pipe must be at least 20

cm above the stream bed as well as at least 20 cm below the water surface (see the

System Diagram). The water level in the canal should be at least 20cm and the

recommended flow rate should be available. The base of the canal must be level,

or horizontal. When installed correctly, a vortex should be observed over the hole

that enters the pipe.

3. If provided, insert the debris screen into the upstream end of the canal, but not the

flow gate.

4. Place the turbine end of PowerPal into the hole in the canal (shown below). This

should be a good fit so that PowerPal is vertical and does not move from side to

side. You will notice from the sound and gentle vibrations that PowerPal begins

working immediately. If you do not notice this then there is a problem with your

site. Check again that you have followed the initial procedures correctly. The

lower bearing is lubricated by water so water must be allowed to enter the lower

hole drilled in the shaft tube.

5. If the rate of water flow entering the canal is too high you will need to insert the

flow gate to the required position to reduce this rate. One way to determine if the

flow rate is too high is if the water level in the canal is too high. The water level

should not be so high that it overflows the canal sides. Another indicator is the

presence of 'standing waves', or stationary waves on the water surface in the

canal. The water surface should be reasonably smooth, without stationary waves.

If, after inserting the flow gate there is a high level of water turbulence you will

have to reduce this. The easiest way is to modify the stream flow upstream of the

canal. Use boulders or sticks to achieve the desired flow.

6. Plug in the electronic load controller (ELC) into the socket on PowerPal.

About the electronic load controller

The water turbine captures the water's energy and converts it into electricity. The

generator's output voltage is dependent on the load consumption. When there is no power

being consumed, the output voltage can reach 280V – 300V. This output voltage will

decrease with any increase in power consumption. The electronic load controller is used to

eliminate this excess output voltage (>220V) so that it is safe to use household appliances.

Keep fingers away from the moving propeller.

Do not allow electrical

contacts to become wet.

Use dry hands. Beware

of electrocution.
