Dust measurement in underground mining
Safety in underground mines is a primary concern for miners and mine operators. Visibility of people and assets is also essential to optimize workflow and maximize output. A transmittance dust measuring device measures dust at medium to high concentrations, alerting operators when defined limits are imminent. This allows sufficient time to increase fan speeds to extract the dust or even evacuate the mine.
