Import Tips
• Provide hydraulic head specifications and efficiency curves to justify classification as power-generating turbine
• Include material certificates for high-strength stainless steel buckets resistant to cavitation
• Budget for bond storage if turbine arrives before site preparation; demurrage fees apply
