PROJECT
DEVELOP, DESIGN & MANUFACTURE MINE DEWATERING SOLUTION.
DESCRIPTION
A new dewatering strategy was needed to boost underground dewatering capabilities as the
existing infrastructure could not manage increased dewatering requirements.
INDUSTRY SECTOR
Mining.
INFRASTRUCTURE
Wilo-EMU bore type pumps model K8.50
DN150 25 Bar rated manifolds ,valves and connections manufactured from HDG piping
Fabricated and epoxy coated steel
250PFC common channel base for mounting of all pipework and booster pumps
Suitably sized fork tyne pockets and Rud-Lug lifting points
RHS protection cage around entire assembly
DN150 25 bar rated Magflow meter
DN150 25 bar rated FL/Victaulic adapters
DETAILS
An underground study was conducted by J.A.C. Pumps who worked collaboratively with mine
staff to develop a solution best suited to mine requirements.
DN200 25bar rated booster modules were designed and manufactured to provide a station,
matched to pump varying influent flows of 20L/s – 40L/s through the existing DN150/DN200
riser system.
Careful consideration was taken in design factoring in ease of maintenance and compatibility
with existing mine, infrastructure and SCADA requirements.
