THE IMPACT OF DOWNTIME ON YOUR MINE

Mine power outages can cost millions of dollars in losses each year.

Average mine losses are $90,000/hour of non-production.

Average mine losses are $1,000,000+/year with just three outages of four hours each.

The air-insulated equipment you use is often the point of failure that causes an outage.

What are the three key reasons for air-insulated equipment downtime?

As your mine grows, stationary equipment needs to be moved. This involves an outage and often leads to damage to critical equipment.

The dust and dirt produced during mine settlement inside your air-insulated power equipment will lead to flashovers, damage, and outages.

Common air-insulated equipment requires regular maintenance, cleaning, and fuse replacement, all of which necessitate an outage.

The solution is to use equipment designed to handle mining conditions. S&C's Vista° circuit breaker replaces the open-air switchgear of traditional equipment with a sealed tank filled with insulating gas.

The benefits add up quickly, and the S&C Vista° circuit breaker pays for itself with one avoided outage.
