Fixed Cone Free Discharge Valve

Premium Discharge Capacity

The Fixed Cone Free Discharge Valve, also known as a Hollow Jet Valve or Howell Bunger Valve, is specifically designed for free-discharge flow control at the terminal end of a dam outlet, culvert, or stilling basin.

This energy-dissipating valve delivers a controlled hollow jet that reduces downstream pressure and erosion risk. Common applications include turbine bypass operations, emergency discharge scenarios, and compensation flow duties in low-pressure environments. Its robust construction and open jet design make it ideal for critical hydraulic discharge infrastructure where safe, continuous flow must be maintained.

Available in a wide range of diameters and pressure ratings, the Fixed Cone Valve is engineered to handle high flow rates with minimal cavitation, making it a trusted solution for long-life performance in water and hydropower systems.
