In collaboration with Flatk Wood Fans, we successfully executed the design, manufacture, delivery and installation of a custom designed cutting-edge primary ventilation system for Glencore’s Blakefield South Mine. Spanning over four years, this intricate project encompassed the fabrication of two Switch Rooms, six 1.3MW Variable Speed Drives and a 300kW Air Conditioning Plant.
Our team delivered a state-of-the-art primary ventilation system, showcasing our unrivalled expertise in delivering custom designed solutions for our customers. The primary ventilation system not only met but exceeded the complex requirements of the project.
Benefits
A state-of-the-art primary ventilation system is critical in mining operations to ensure the safety and well-being of workers. By exceeding the project’s complex requirements, the solution contributed to a safer work environment by effectively removing potentially harmful gases, dust, and heat from the mine.
The ventilation system helped maintain optimal working conditions by regulating temperature and air quality. This, in turn, led to increased worker productivity as they could work more comfortably and efficiently.
The inclusion of variable speed drives in the system allowed the system to adapt to different energy requirements, resulting in energy savings and reduced operational costs.
Our 30 year history of providing quality electrical solutions ensured that the mine received reliable and world class solutions.
This project included a comprehensive overhaul of the switch room, which had originally been supplied by us in 2007. Our expert team undertook a thorough refurbishment, including servicing of the VVVF Drives, updates to the air conditioning system and enhancement to the fire system, all of which .
