NEW POWER PLANT FOR GRAND DIXENCE SA CONDÉMINES – PÈROUA

A material ropeway will be used to replace the pressure line between Condémines and Pèroua. The cable car system has a payload of 25 tonnes. The pressure pipes with a diameter of up to 3.15 m can be comfortably moved with the material ropeway. The cable car system is equipped with 2 motorized cable cranes which are suspended one behind the other and logically connected to each other. Here we have a redundant system in use that can be relied upon.
