High head mining pontoon-mounted pumps are often left in place in high wall sumps when blasting takes place and have traditionally been protected by means of a solid 6 mm canopy covering the engine.
As pumping technology improves and ancillary software and devices installed onto pumpsets to monitor flow rates, pressure, temperatures, shutdowns and telemetry improves, it has become necessary to protect these items from damage. The cages also act as a deterrent to vandals, as well as protecting the unit from day to day damage.
These cages, around the entire pumpset, are engineered to ensure complete protection from fallout of large rocks and debris during blasting.
Sykes are able to provide a blast cage to suit specific requirements that do not compromise access to the equipment.
