First Turnkey main fan station commissioned at Anglocoals’s Zondagsfontein colliery project

BBE Projects has just commissioned its first turnkey fan contract for a bifurcated surface main fan station at Anglo Coal’s Zondagsfontein colliery near Ogies in Mpumalanga.  The contract, awarded in 2008, comprises two axial flow Howden fans, each 400 m3/s at 2.6 kPa with 1 600 kW motors, and includes all structural, mechanical and electrical engineering design and specifications, and supply and installation of all steel ducting, buildings, fan mechanicals, electric drives, instrumentation and control systems. Noise levels are well below strict design criteria.
