Mining Equipment Upgrades Mean Safer Work Conditions

New Selection Of Wire Sealing Systems

Over 500 wire sealing systems and wall inserts will be installed as a part of the redevelopment of the $2.6 bn. Perth waterfront project currently being built.

Wire and pipe sealing products have been mentioned by mining engineering experts and will be installed to maintain the integrity of cable sealing and protect the pit and duct system from potential water damage.

Not only does the system provide excellent sealing properties, the Wire Sealing range is flexible and simply installed in formwork-mounted concrete.

Safety Drawers For Paints And Solvents

Safety cabinets can be gotten in a range acceptable for the storage of deadly substances such as paints and solvents.

These cabinets feature a ventilated design, locking function and a collection tank for leaks. Painted yellow, the drawers also carry symbols that would indicate to workers and firefighters about the presence of the dangerous substances stored inside.

These drawers don't have fire protection features and do not obey categorical regulations. The cupboards have been designed for the single point of helping to better manage the storage of certain perilous substances.

Retractable Dock Obstacles

OK for doors with openings up to 3,000mm, retractable dock obstructions are meant to help forestall dockworkers from falling off a loading dock.

This high visibility yellow dock obstacle replaces the signal function of the dock door opening and closing when the facility operates with the loading dock doors open.

“This means an incredible increase in safety for dockworkers wherever this equipment is installed and functioning correctly,” said Mal Crowley from Engineering Unlimited in Tanworth.

“Lives will undoubtedly be saved.”

It features a high strength durable nylon strap that's retracting to keep clear of door openings when not in use, and when supplied with an optional proximity sensor, it can be incorporated with the smart chock and safety signal dock communications systems from materials handling, or used as a stand-alone unit.
