Sorensen Systems specializes in electro-hydraulic solutions for micro and small hydro installations as well as water and wastewater treatment packages.
Micro & Small Hydro Rehabilitation
We develop hydraulic and electrical control systems for small and micro hydro rehabilitation projects. Our specialties are electro-hydraulic governors, gate-operating systems, and hydraulic lubrication and bearing cooling units.
Valve and Gate Actuation & Control
Sorensen Systems develops the hydraulic and electrical control systems for hydraulically actuated valves and gates found in waterways, tunnels and dams.
Conduit Energy Recovery
In conduit energy recovery, excess water pressure is converted into energy that can be harnessed to produce hydroelectricity. Sorensen Systems develops and install specialized turbines as replacements for pressure reducing valves, most often in an attempt to retrofit existing system components. It’s common to find conduit energy recovery used in hydro rehabilitation projects.
