KEEPING YOU ON THE MOVE

Secondary Auxiliary Fans

COMPACT AND MIGHTY FOR MAXIMUM PRESSURE WITH MINIMUM FUSS

Keep additional fan installations and mid-project shutdowns to a minimum, with Minetek's Secondary Auxiliary fans.

Minetek's Secondary Axial fans are compact in size; 40% shorter and 10% lighter than standard fans with a low-profile ducting, which makes installation easy. The high pressure capability of Minetek's High Output (HO) axial fan is more than double of standard fans of comparable size. This results in less fans needed overall.

Benefit from a plethora of additional features, from Australian engineering, automation, syncronisation between fans and full control from the surface.

Minetek's secondary fans / auxiliary fans are available as both impulse bladed and vane axial versions.

LONG DUCT RUNS

The concentrated power of Minetek's High Output (HO) Axial Fans, makes them the ideal solution for long duct runs.

The ability to install a single auxillary fan that can ramp up to the increasing duty point needed as the project expands saves both time and money.

Complimented by the need for only a single duct run, PLC screen surface control, and the added bonus of being able to surge the fan past the required duty point to clear gases and dust for fast re-entry make Minetek the ideal choice.

Our Capabilities

Primary Ventilation Fans

Minetek can supply the largest available fans for main fan ventilation. Innovative engineering and premier quality have resulted in world first features like Minetek's Performance on Demand (POD) controls. Experience power saving, durability and flexibility not achieved with traditional fans.

Secondary Auxiliary Fans

Keep additional fan installations and mid-project shutdowns to a minimum, with Minetek's auxiliary fans. Compact in size , while the high pressure capability results in less fans needed for the development. Benefit from automation, syncronisation and control from the surface.

Booster Fans

Strategically optimise underground air flow with Minetek. Primary fans can be installed as a booster fan for both return and intake airways and provide all the Minetek advantages. Additionally, Minetek's fans can sequence with the main ventilation, and anti-stall features, making it a reliable choice for booster ventilation.

Multiple Heading Ventilation

Improve project performance by using Minetek ventilation solutions for multiple heading ventilation. Reduce operating costs, and decrease work required for installation with Minetek's high output fans.

Bulkhead Fans

Synchronise bulkhead fans with Minetek's Performance On Demand (POD) and Mine Air Control (MAC) system. Halve the amount of fans required, and stop inefficient power wastage, stalling and duct friction with Minetek.

Long Duct Runs

The concentrated power of Minetek's High Output (HO) Axial Fans, makes them the ideal solution for long duct runs. With more than twice the pressure capacity of a standard bladed axial fan, less fans are needed throughout the development.

Tunnel Fans

Minetek's low profile fan provides additional clearance between ventilation ducts and loaded vehicles, making them the ideal industrial ventilation solution for tunnels. Improve safety, save power, and achieve maximum performance with Minetek.

Development Fans

Utilise Minetek's Pressure, Power, Performance on Demand (POD) system throughout development and reap the economic benefits. Control from the surface, and only use the air pressure and power you need at each stage of the development. Minetek's fans will grow with your project.

Mine Air Control (Mac)

The Mine Air Control (MAC) system, in conjunction with the fans Performance on Demand (POD) technology enables synchronization of both the primary and secondary ventilation fans to increased performance, economic benefits, and efficient use of power. Control the ventilation system remotely for ideal performance from the surface.

The relatively small fans allowed us to utilise our existing bulkhead, where we were severely limited by space, which allowed us to use our existing infrastructure and dramatically reduce downtime in the mine during the change out. The installation was completed safely... and allows us to scale our ventilation flow with their pressure on demand system to suit our production profile.
