Secondary Mine Fan Ventilation

Date:May 1, 2019

Secondary mine ventilation has been hamstrung by the availability of fans that satisfy many competing operational factors. The new system overcomes all competing requirements in one unit with the added bonus of being very durable without loss of performance when wear occurs on the impeller. We have addressed the legislated requirement of adequate volume to the working face, minimization of excavation required to fit the secondary fan, and power requirements of operational phases.
