Ekotec
Cost reduction
Air filter cost in a large open cut mining operation could be reduced by 50% using the ekotec products. On a mobile equipment fleet of approximately 100 machines, this could result in a saving of approximately $500,000.
Better Environment
Reducing the usage of filters will result in a reduction on site of filter inventories. Currently, most filters end up in a land fill after a single use; costly and wasteful use of land, energy, and materials. One of the primary benefits of the ekotec products.
Machine reliability
Using ekotec products assists Data collection from the machine would enable machine maintenance tactics to be optimised on filter changes and to identify operating practices that impact on filter life.
Reduced transport cost
An onsite installation could also result in a significant reduction in transportation costs, especially for remote/Isolated mine sites.
