AIR COMPRESSOR FOR MINING

Mining operations are challenging and take place in some of the most hostile, remote, and inaccessible corners of the world. ELGi’s innovative air compressors are safely and efficiently used in mines and oil rigs to power drilling and piling equipment, pneumatic tools, conveyor belts transporting material, and ventilation systems inside mines.

DELIVER HIGH-QUALITY AIR

ELGi’s range of air compressors is well-tested on various parameters to ensure zero defects and designed according to the international quality standards to provide high-quality air for seamless mining operations.

STATE OF THE ART SAFETY

ELGi’s range of air compressors comes with a native designed Neuron control system that offers operating data and safety measures. These compressors adhere to modern mining processes with improved production and safety throughout all aspects of mining.

BEST-IN-CLASS ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND RELIABILITY

ELGi’s range of air compressors is recommended for the mining industry for its best-in-class reliability on demanding work sites, along with auto high drill mode for operating at great depths and high productivity even in water-yield conditions. The industrial-grade steel and powder-coated canopy provide maximum corrosion protection and durability. The trolley-mounted-compressors and skid-mounted-compressors, along with custom-built models based on user preferences, maximize the operational efficiency and profitability for the user.

COMPRESSED AIR APPLICATIONS IN MINING

Pneumatic Tools

Compressed air is an excellent energy source for power tools such as drills, wrenches, hack saws, and other vital mining equipment used in the deep underground stretches of the mines.

Blasting

Compressed air systems offer safer mediums for use in blasting operations. High velocity compressed air streams can be vital in some mining situations.

Material handling

Material like coal dust can be better handled when mixed with compressed air, allowing for fluidization. In addition, compressed air is used in conveying material in mining as well.

Cleaning

Compressed air is also used for purging unwanted particles from filters and other spaces amid the dirt and dust from the mining operation. It is a clean source of air and can be used effectively without additional cleaning materials. This helps extend the longevity of critical mining equipment and reduces any downtime needed for maintenance.

Ventilation Systems

Compressed air has a long history of providing ventilation to deep mine tunnels. It is a safe and breathable source of air used in hazardous mining environments. In addition, displacement blowers can also utilize compressed air systems for ventilation. In coal mining, for example, displacement blowers are used to provide air ventilation to the mining sites.

Methane Gas Extraction

Methane gas build-up in a mine can be lethal. The risk of a static electric spark igniting methane and breathing the gas are both dangers for miners. To combat this situation, compressed air systems adequately fitted and designed for use in dangerous environments can help extract the gas through blowers and vacuum pumps for coal mining operations.
