Mining
Whether surface or underground mining or large or small equipment, Sy-Klone offers solutions to protect your equipment and your operators. We are aware of the many regulatory requirements and design our products to help meet and/or exceed the standards. Sy-Klone has worked with mine operators and machine manufacturers to create custom engineered solutions for precleaning engine intake air and improving cab air quality. In most cases the cost of installing a cab air quality system is less than the cost of one MSHA fine.
Sy-Klone is ready to partner with you in protecting the health and safety of your investments.
