Reliable access to safe water is non-negotiable in mining operations…

In the mining industry, where operations are often remote, and conditions can be unforgiving, reliable access to safe water is non-negotiable.

Which is where these two 23,000L portable water tanks come in. Purpose built for an iron ore mine in Northern WA. These tanks are specifically engineered to provide potable water to the mining camp.

Designed to withstand the rigors of mining operations, our steel fabrication team housed the tanks in heavy-duty Duragalv industrial-duty frames for enhanced durability and protection. These frames feature forklift pockets for easy maneuvering and load-certified lifting points for effortless relocation, making the system mobile and adaptable to shifting operational needs.

At the heart of this potable water system is a Davey HP45-05T, 240V pressure pump, delivering a maximum flow rate of 70L per minute. But what truly sets this system apart, however, is its UV Steriflo kit. This kit comes equipped with a UV chamber & lamp, a 20-micron pleated filter, and a 1-micron filter.

The UV Steriflo system employs ultraviolet disinfection technology to eliminate harmful bacteria, viruses, moulds, yeasts, and protozoa without the need for chemicals. This non-chemical, non-heat application ensures a cleaner, safer water supply with reduced maintenance demands. By filtering out particles and using UV to disinfect, the system provides a continuous supply of potable water with minimal hassle, meeting the strict safety standards required on mining sites.

To meet the specific operational needs of our client, we installed a 50mm outlet on each tank, allowing them to run a balance line connecting the two tanks. This additional feature ensures flexibility and operational efficiency as the tanks can work together seamlessly, distributing water as needed across the site.

Each tank also comes equipped with mechanical level gauges, allowing for easy monitoring of water levels, ensuring there is no interruption to the camp’s water supply.

By combining robust construction with advanced filtration and UV disinfection technology, we have delivered a portable water solution that meets the tough demands of the mining industry. With easy relocation, enhanced durability, and a chemical-free water purification system, these 23,000L portable tanks will provide our client with a reliable source of potable water, ensuring the mining camp’s safety and operational efficiency.
