The Azolite  (0.32 MB)

Company Announcemet - Proof Engineering, specialist manufacturer and supplier of flameproof and explosion proof products, introduces a new range of energy saving, LED lighting solutions for hazardous tunneling and underground mining applications. The country’s protracted energy crises and resultant unreliable power supply not only affects equipment but can also put the safety of workers at risk. The new Azolite LED fluorescent lights have been specially designed with personnel safety in mind and offers two unique features that ensure long periods of continued lighting in the event of a power outage.

The units have been fitted with an emergency back-up LED and a small charger which will continue to provide light for up to 12 hours to ensure the safe movement of underground personnel during power failures. In addition, the light fitting has been manufactured from special material which glows for up to a remarkable eight hours after a power cut.

The Azolite range also includes a non-hazardous blue LED light which has the capability of shining through heavy dust, making it ideal for applications such as underground rescue bays. Azolite was the first flameproof light available on the market that could be isolated safely while live in order to change fluorescent tubes. This rugged range of lights and lighting systems with flameproof, dust- and waterproof specifications meet all necessary local SANAS as well as ISO 9001 accreditation through BVQI.          

Proof Engineering, a member of the Hudaco Group, provides a wide product portfolio including electrical plugs and flameproof sockets, couplers and connectors specified by the tunneling, surface and underground mining as well as heavy industrial market sectors to meet the arduous conditions prevalent in these applications.
