Installation Details

Location

Company: Tangshan Kailuan Group Linxi Mining Co.

Location: Tangshan, China

Installation Point: Jiu Dong pump room, 600m underground

Vulcan Installation

Model: Vulcan S350

Pipe Diameter: 14 inches

Configuration: Explosion-proof and waterproof box

Purpose: Solve scaling and corrosion in underground drainage system

Explosion-Proof & Waterproof Configuration

The Vulcan S350 is installed in a specialized explosion-proof and waterproof box, designed for safe operation in hazardous underground mining environments.

Key Features for Mining Applications:
  • Explosion-proof housing certified for underground use
  • Waterproof protection against mine moisture
  • Safe operation at 600 meters depth
  • Designed for hazardous environments
  • Protects against both scale and corrosion

The Challenge

The underground drainage system in the Jiu Dong pump room faced two critical issues:

  • Scaling problems – mineral buildup restricting flow
  • Corrosion of pipes – threatening system integrity

These problems required a solution that could operate safely in an explosive environment while effectively treating the water in the drainage system.
