OPERATION

For the past three years, the people have been very satisfied with the dependable service and effective job provided by their truck-mounted cleaning system using a PressureJet pump. One of many services provided by this system is cleaning the radiators on their crawler tractors, drag line and front end loaders. Daily cleaning of these radiators is essential to keep them operating properly. When the radiator clogs with coal dust and restricts air flow, overheating results and ultimately contributes to shortened engine life. The system is also used to clean over 100 other major pieces of mining equipment prior to preventative maintenance and service. It is important that coal dust be removed from the equipment because it is easier to repair when the equipment is clean, and therefore results in better maintenance. This cleaning system is an integral part of the mining company?s daily operation. With the PressureJet pump, the service has been dependable and they have eliminated the costly repairs they formerly experienced on previously owned cleaning equipment.
