AIR COMPRESSOR FOR MINING INDUSTRY

Middle East has several mining resources like gold, silver, iron ore, copper and bauxite. Some of the mineral deposits left after desalinating seawater, such as magnesium, are being recycled as well.

From these minerals, useful materials such as metals can be extracted. Our innovative and robust air compressors are safe and can be efficiently used in mines and oil rigs, even in the most extreme conditions, to power drilling and piling equipment, pneumatic tools, conveyor belts that transport material and ventilation systems inside mines.

DELIVER HIGH-QUALITY AIR

ELGi’s range of air compressors are well-tested on various parameters in order to ensure zero defects and are designed in accordance with the international quality standards to provide high qualified air for seamless mining operations.

STATE OF THE ART SAFETY

ELGi's range of air compressors comes with an in-house designed Neuron Control System offering operating data and safety measures. These compressors are compatible to operate 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 are recommended for the mining industry for its best-in-class reliability. Our compressors can run in demanding work sites, and they have an auto high drill mode for operating at great depths and high productivity even in water yield conditions. They also have industrial-grade steel and powder coated canopy for maximum corrosion protection and durability. Our trolley-mounted-compressors and skid-mounted-compressors can help to maximize your operational efficiency and profitability. We also offer custom-built models based on user preference for all your mining applications.

USE OF COMPRESSORS IN MINING

Mining is among the largest global industries that has always been pivotal to the world's economy. With numerous industries being dependent on the supply of these minerals, metals, and ores. Unearthing these precious resources takes quite a bit of precision and requires durable and reliable equipment. An air compressor used for mining should be able to work in tight spaces, dust & debris, stand up to the demands of use.

ELGi’s industrial air compressors are designed to provide high-quality performance and reliability in all aspects of mining operations. They can be used for powering drilling and piling machinery, pneumatic tools, material conveyors, and ventilation systems and can be used in both, on the surfaces and below the surface,

THE COMMON MINING APPLICATIONS FOR COMPRESSED AIR INCLUDES:

Pneumatic Tools – Compressed air is an excellent source of energy for power tools such as drills, wrenches, hack saws and other vital mining equipment that needs to be 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 – Materials like coal dust can be better handled when compressed air is mixed, allowing for fluidization. In addition, compressed air can be used in conveying material during mining as well.
Cleaning – Compressed air can also be used for purging unwanted particles from filters and other spaces amid the dirt and dust of the mining operation. It is a clean source of air and can be used effectively without requiring any additional cleaning materials. This can help extend the longevity of critical mining equipment and reduce any downtime needed for maintenance.
Ventilation Systems – Compressed air has a long history of providing ventilation in deep mine tunnels. It is a safe and breathable source of air that can also be used in precarious mining environments. In addition, displacement blowers can also utilize compressed air systems for ventilation. During coal mining, for example, displacement blowers are used to provide the needed air ventilation to mining sites.
Methane Gas Extraction – Methane gas build up in a mine can be dangerous. The gas is toxic and extremely flammable. Compressed air systems properly fitted and designed for use in such dangerous environments can help extract the gas through the use of blowers and vacuum pumps for coal mining operations.
