Locally manufactured HVAC systems for Tanzania
Booyco Engineering recently supplied 20 heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, including installation kits and compressors, to a mining operation in Tanzania. Comprising ten A009 4 kW 24 V DC evaporator units and ten B009 7 kW 24 V DC condenser units, the units were part of the mine’s efforts to ensure operator comfort and optimal machine performance in a region characterised by high temperatures and humidity.
Booyco Engineering MD Brenton Spies says that Tanzania’s mining industry, largely operated by international companies, adheres to stringent health, safety and operational standards. The locally manufactured HVAC systems will be installed on heavy-duty mobile mining and construction equipment including CAT349 75-t excavators, Komatsu 325 dump trucks and CAT770G haul trucks.
“The remoteness of Tanzanian mining operations necessitates highly reliable HVAC systems that minimise downtime and maximise equipment availability. Our solid track record in delivering proven solutions tailored for harsh environments played a key role in securing this order,” says Spies.
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of these HVAC systems, Booyco Engineering provided the mining operation with critical spare parts supported by technical backup.
