SURFACE MINING

AMR PEMCO has supported the global coal mining industry for nearly six decades with electrical ground check/ground fault monitoring, power centers, electronic circuit breakers, mine wide atmospheric monitoring systems, wireless communications, asset and personnel tracking solutions, and a variety of monitoring and control solutions. Our products are designed to increase safety, efficiency and productivity, and thus enable the mine to operate safely while meeting all production goals.

Our founder, Bob Graf, pioneered the development of the world’s first pilotless, or commonly known as continuity-type, ground check monitor.  AMR PEMCO has sold over 50,000 monitors and offers a complete suite of low-to-high voltage impedance style and continuity ground check / ground fault monitors. AMR PEMCO also manufactures electronic circuit breakers, which replace traditional molded case circuit breakers in order to significantly reduce arc flash exposure and improve operational efficiency. Combined with AMR PEMCO’s patented Remote Racking System (RRS), our CB line reduces the troubleshooting of faults to a matter of minutes.

Looking for collision avoidance? Our Collision Avoidance Protection System, or CAPS, is available for both underground hard rock or any surface mining operation. Through highly precise, two-way synchronous ranging technology, the CAPS platform virtually eliminates false alarms common in RFID and radio signal-based systems. With several standard features such as driver & passenger acknowledgement, automatic driver reset, momentary silencing, on board flash memory, and future expansion up to four sensors, CAPS is the most cost-effective solution on the market.

Most of the mining industry is familiar with the PEMCO’s high quality electrical distribution equipment, and the combined entity of AMR PEMCO continues that tradition of quality and reliability. Offering power centers up to 34.5 KV, or 10MVA, we specialize not only in standard applications, but in low profile, slim line, and other unique engineering challenges that other suppliers might turn away from. Our in-house, dry-type transformer manufacturing allows us to design a solution for any application. In addition to skid-mounted power centers, portable load centers, and power distribution panels, we offer industrial control buildings (ICB’s) such as e-Houses, data centers, and motor control centers (MCC’s), with options for variable frequency drives (VFD’s) or other controls and instrumentation.

In addition to our own products, we partner with other groups to provide value-added solutions such as High Tide Technologies™ for remote cellular/satellite telemetry with online SCADA, Howden Simsmart™ for ventilation optimization solutions, Rockwell Automation™ and Inductive Automation™ for systems integration solutions.

AMR PEMCO is dedicated to providing customers with products that achieve results, improve employee safety, reduce operating costs and shorten downtime. Our domestic and international distributor network, combined with our highly trained sales, engineering, and service departments, are ready to assist customers around the clock.
