Project Requirements
Saraji coal mine boasts an excellent safety reputation and in accordance with it’s continuous improvement policy, recognised the need to upgrade the ROM lighting to newer technology LED lighting.
Different offers were evaluated and finally the Helios Max was earmarked for the initial trial and opportunity came to replace the lights on LTA14. This pole is a critical light tower at the entrance to the ROM and had a 360 degree light spread to illuminate the different activities that were occurring in the area.
Solutions
Dura Vision Lighting worked closely with the BMA project team and the final selection was to use the Helios Max. The Helios Max not only achieved the lighting design specifications with high efficacy but was able to reduce the windage and ‘top of pole’ weight.
The use of precision optics in asymmetric pattern means the fitting is nearly horizontal presenting a very low wind co-efficient which is important on high mast towers. The drivers were all remote mounted reducing the top of pole weight as well which in addition resulted in easy access for any maintenance.
