The panels that are designed, manufactured, and installed to our customers specifications range from 1KW to 300KW rated up to 1000volts for Mining Machines and allied industries.

 

Needs Assessment:

• We understand the specific requirements of the mining operation: the types of equipment used, the scale of operations, and the environmental conditions in which the equipment operates.

​

Design and Engineering:

• Reas Electrical designs custom control panels that are tailored to the mining equipment and the specific operational needs.

• We consider factors such as power distribution, remote monitoring, data communication, and safety interlocks.

• Guaranteed compliance with relevant industry standards and regulations.

​

Component Selection:

• We choose high-quality components and control devices suitable for the harsh mining environments, by selecting the appropriate sensors, controllers, switches, and indicators for the control panel.

​

Safety Features:

• Reas implements safety features such as emergency stop buttons, overload protection, and fault detection to protect both equipment and operators, ensuring compliance with safety standards to minimize accidents and incidents.

 

Remote Monitoring and Control:

• Incorporate remote monitoring and control capabilities, which are especially beneficial in remote mining locations in Africa.

• Enable operators to monitor equipment status, troubleshoot issues, and make real-time adjustments from a central control room.

 

Environmental Considerations:

• Reas only designs control panels to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including extreme temperatures, humidity, and dust. Enclosures and sealing are essential.

 

Compliance and Documentation:

• Reas Electrical works according to the codes and necessary standards that the control panels meet all relevant regulatory and safety standards.

• Provide comprehensive documentation, including schematics, manuals, and maintenance guidelines.

​

Supply and Installation:

• Supply the designed control panels, either as standalone components for retrofitting or as part of new mining equipment.

• We service, install and commission the process to ensure the control panels operate as intended.

 

Maintenance and Upgrades:

• Reas Electrical offer regular maintenance services and opportunities for upgrading control panels to keep pace with technological advancements and changing operational needs.

 

Local Sourcing and Manufacturing:

• We source components and materials locally to support the local economy and reduce lead times and costs.
