Becker Mining to supply Emis transformers
January 2011
News
Becker Mining Africa has extended its range to include Emis transformers and switchgear, designed for the distribution of electrical power, energy co-generation, rectification and traction.
“Emis compact switchgear units are manufactured to exact specifications for use in diverse industries, including hazardous environments. These units, with power ratings up to 4000 kVA, are available with primary nominal voltages up to 11 kV and secondary nominal voltages to 3,3 kV,” says Donovan Moss, managing director of Becker Mining Africa. “The latest plug-in technology, with integrated monitoring and control functions, means all connections are automatically established. An important feature of these transformers is they are designed for easy setting and maintenance.”
The Emis range, custom designed for safe use in hazardous areas, includes conveyor starter and distribution panels, direct on line starters, gate-end-boxes, stop/start stations, as well as isolators and enclosures. Emis electrical products for non-hazardous areas include customised distribution, pump, winch, motor control centres, variable speed drives, soft starters, flitting and cage control panels; lighting and accessories and telemetry communication systems.
