ATEX Hydraulic and Air Starting Motors
IPU’s air and hydraulic starting motors reduce the risk of fires and explosions in underground mines. They avoid the use of aluminium in all external surfaces as required by EN-1834 and ATEX regulations. Aluminium contributes to catastrophic thermite reactions. IPU’s starter motors can use a pre-engaged movement and beryllium-copper pinions to reduce the risk of sparks when they crank the engine. Sparks are a particular danger in explosive atmospheres with firedamp gases. Our non-electric starting motors are also popular in quarries that suffer the theft of electronic components and batteries.

ENOVATION DISPLAYS
Enovation screens control safety features such as door and parking brake alarms and beam service data to asset management systems via the cloud. It doesn’t matter what you throw at them: bright sunshine (1,000cd/m2 anti-glare screen), water and dust (IP66 and IP67 protection), constant vibration (7.8Grms @ 5 – 2,000Hz), hard knocks (up to 50G) and extreme temperatures (-40ºC to +85ºC). They just keep working. And they combine this ruggedness with top-of-the-line functionality such as glove-friendly touch-screens, CANbus, MODbus, Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and large, customisable colour displays.

FUEL FILTERS & FUEL-WATER SEPARATORS
The mining industry often means operating in hazardous and/or remote locations. This can make engine maintenance a challenge and yet their reliability is as critical as the safety precautions (such as ATEX) put in place to prevent disaster. IPU’s range of Racor filters are the last line of defence against contamination entering and damaging your most expensive assets. They remove solid contaminants down to 2 microns and nearly 100% water through a combination of separation, coalescing and filtration.
