MINETEK - Mine Air Control (MAC) System

Linking directly to the Performance on Demand (POD) systems on the MINETEK fan range, it automatically ramps the airflow up or down as required. Air quality control for mining is required on some mines as a condition of their development approval and/or environment protection licenses issued by the EPA. These conditions require mining operators to monitor, manage and report on air pollutant levels in and around their mines.

The computerised controller allows for the management of airflow, from low flow during low activity times, right through to more than double the duty point of a traditional vane axial fan. This capacity to control high-pressure ventilation from the surface gives the ability to quickly blast gases or dust out for faster and safer re-entry times.

The automated monitoring and adapting of ventilation creates an all-around safer environment, as there’s no chance of human error and underestimating the correct amount of airflow needed. MINETEK’s smart system will save any site money, with a guaranteed return on investment.

Save on power, additional fan installs and delayed re-entry with MINETEK’s Mine Air Control patented system. Talk to MINETEK about air quality control for mining today.

Limit the amount of fans required throughout multiple heading developments with MINETEK.

As with our other applications, the high output, steel impeller design gives over double the duty point of traditional fans of the same comparable size. Quiet, efficient, with smart technology and streamlined features.

Low fan profile, single duct runs and minimal installs needed throughout the project are all advantages of using MINETEK solutions.
