GRUNDFOS MINESCOPE PANELS
Grundfos has developed a range of Minescope
Control Panels, designed specifically for
use within the mining sector. The range is
available in two sizes, to cover power ranges
0-30 kW and 37-92 kW – resulting in greater
flexibility onsite and allowing operators to use
the control panels with a wider range of pump
motor sizes.
The Minescope control panels are available
as ‘off the shelf items’, this allows Grundfos
to pass the benefits of economies of scales
and scope onto customers in the form of cost
savings. The lead times are also reduced
by stocking Minescope control panels in
numerous regional warehouses to ensure
they arrive to site with minimal delay.
