COAL TUNNEL & CRUSHER HOUSE - CENTRAL VACUUM SYSTEM

Matrix Engineering performed the mechanical, electrical and control system design for a central vacuum system for primary handling of coal dust. The system has over 50 hose pick-up points in 2 different zones with over 250 ft convey distance required. We designed a 2” hose system at 14” Hg for maximum performance. We designed a variable speed blower arrangement with PLC based control for ease of operator interface. Managers and operators alike were very pleased with the results as shown below in their company newsletter.
