This is from a text by a company that builds and maintains hydroelectric power plants.
Neben der Standarddichtung fertigen wir auch Kugelhähne mit einer bergseitigen Revisionsdichtung aus nichtrostendem Martensitstahl.
Could it be upstream backup seal?
Thanks for your help!

headwater side
headwater = water before the dam as in "The reservoir, completed in 1992, impounded 1.2 billion US gallons (4,500,000 m3 ) of water before the dam and water level were increased in 2009.[2] The reservoir serves as a water source for Douglas County. After leaving the reservoir, the Dog River flows into the Chattahoochee River."

The creation of a head at the dam makes possible the use of the river’s discharge to generate power.
In terms of head, dams are divided into low-head, with a head of up to 10 m; medium-head, with a head of 10-40 m; and high-head, with a head of more than 40 m.
