Shaft Water Technology for Equitable Water Distribution

Water Supply
Hydraulic Isolation Shaft
Equitable Distribution
RuTAG, Irrigation
Pressure Stabilisation

overview

RuTAG has developed and disseminated Hydraulic Isolation Shaft technology to address inequitable water distribution caused by unequal pressure in drinking water and irrigation systems. This technology improves equity in intermittent water supply systems by stabilizing downstream pressure and eliminating air pockets through a hydraulic isolation shaft. Installed using twin vertical pipes forming an annular chamber, it enhances distribution efficiency, reduces maintenance issues, and increases consumer satisfaction and revenue.
