Mine Ventilation Solutions

Divestic Mining Services offers reliable energy-saving underground mining ventilation services and products. We ensure our products and services meet and exceed health and safety standards. Our engineers ensure that ventilation controls are correctly constructed, maintained and properly located to provide ventilation to working sections and other areas where ventilation is needed to dilute methane, respirable coal dust and other contaminants. We take into account various factors before designing and constructing ventilation systems.

Air Crossings

Our specifically-designed air crossing structure is fabricated with non-flammable materials and sealant to minimise occurrence of air leakage between intakes and return airways.

Tunnel Doors and Ventilation Door Frames

We construct tunnel doors to access old working areas. The doors are installed on return airways to reclaim and access old workings with flame proofed machinery.

Permanent Stoppings

Our team of engineers design and construct permanent stoppings to control and direct the ventilation air flow through underground workways. The stoppings are designed to withstand immense pressure dynamics, time and vibration effects.

400 kPa Walls

We ensure that all underground 400 kPa walls are designed according to explosion proof seal standards. Old panels or abandoned panels are sealed in accordance with COP GEN 0019-5 for prevention of coal dust explosions in underground mines.

Gunite Application

At Divestec Mining Services we offer gunite application workshops, refuge bays and 400 kPa seals during construction. The use of gunite bonds rock particles to strengthen the roof or pillars, avoid weathering and scalling of rock material.

Stone Dust Bulk Supply

We deliver stone dust from our manufacturing approved agents. We deliver all silos and stone dust to all clients.

Early Fire Detectors

We supply and install early fire detection systems on belt roads and section return airways. Our installed monitors provide high sensibility detection from small smoke samples from which caution can be taken. Early fire detection assists in effective fire distinguishing.

Environmental and Ventilation Monitors

We supply and install airflow systems which are safe to use in coal mines. The intrinsic systems are highly-accurate and supply a wide turndown ratio and linear output. Ventilation monitors are supplied and installed on travelling roads, belt roads and return airways.

Regulators

We supply and install regulators that adhere to conditions and positions that are free from fractures and airflow channels, free from damage and are designed to carry adequate weight and built around a safe area. All regulators are designed and constructed according to the ventilation plan

Heavy-Duty Brattices

We supply and install heavy temporary brattices on the return airways. Temporary brattices are built before hazardous areas or above 180 m from the development sections.
