COMMUNICATION SOLUTIONS

• Full encapsulation of battery circuitry to prevent electrolyte ingress in the unlikely event of a cell rupture,
• Use of anti-static material for the battery case and
• Stored energy limitation in the radio circuit,
• Prevention of internal sparking or overheating,
• Component and conductor spacing to prevent short circuit caused by dust or atmospheric contamination.

MOTOTRBO digital two-way radio solutions provide you with the visibility that you need for your staff’s location and enable you to ensure that they can communicate always. You can achieve a real-time view of your materials inventory and movements with continuous reconciliation. This solution enables you to minimize variations from your mining plan which in most cases cause delays and slow production.

Motorola Solutions’ culture of innovation supports mining and oil & gas industries with mining communication solutions that enable true operational mobility in the field - with safety placed firmly as the number one priority. The MOTOTRBO radios have been carefully engineered to address workers’ needs and offer the ultimate in safe, reliable and efficient communications in hazardous environments.

As a transparent form of communication, from radio to radio, telephone to radio, data modern equipment to PC, the Sigma Communication Systems range of leaky feeder systems offers fully flexible options to suit your operations. Sigma Communication System’s line amplifiers, line splices, stopes antennas, power couplers and smart-tune VHF line amplifiers allow for consistent and efficient communication channels while in the mines.

Leaky Feeder

This is a communications system that is used in underground mining and other tunnel environments. The leaky feeder communication system consists of a coaxial cable that runs along tunnels or underground mines which emits and receives radio waves thereby functioning as an extended antenna.
