Engineered starters and control panels

We manufacture a comprehensive range of both flameproof and non-flameproof starters and control panels. We offer more than just equipment; we provide a complete solution that encompasses design, engineering, and commissioning, guaranteeing correct and secure operation.

Our main drive starters are, like all our offerings, tailored to meet specific requirements, accounting for physical dimensions, mounting options (fixed or skid-mounted), and protection levels such as drip-proof or weatherproof. These starters find applications not only in Australian collieries but also in quarries (serving crushing plants), industrial facilities, grinding mills, fans, and centrifuges.

Quality design and construction

The cubicles themselves are thoughtfully constructed using sheet steel, with options for stainless steel (SS) or mild steel (MS). These cubicles feature precise folding and welding techniques, creating separate compartments for mains, control, and indication elements, with the indication panel often recessed for underground use to prevent potential damage. Safety is paramount; the main access is interlocked with the main switch, and other components with non-interlocked doors are fully shrouded to eliminate accidental contact with live parts, ensuring the utmost protection and reliability.

We manufacture standard, mechanical and electronic starters to suit all applications including:

  • Variable voltage variable frequency (VVVF)Solid state (SCR Drives)
  • Vector feedback control
  • Direct current (DC Drives)
  • Direct on line
  • Star delta
  • Autotransformer starting
  • Rotor resistance starters
  • Multi-stage starting
  • NEPEAN boss controllers
  • Tripper drive control

Each type of starter is available in a range of operational environments:

  • 415V to 11kV
  • 1kW to 2MW
