Wormald product solutions for the mining industry

 SCBA and Fast Fill Stations

Wormald’s range of Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) includes the Advanced Carrying System (ACS) designed and manufactured by Scott® Safety. Lighter than any other carrying system and offering comfort and flexibility, the ACS is available with a wide variety of facemasks, cylinders and valve styles.

Complementing this system is Wormald’s Fast Fill Station – a transportable recharging facility for Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA).

 While continuing to breathe on the SCBA, it can be connected to the Fast Fill Station, allowing the cylinder to be rapidly recharged to 300 bar in approximately 60 seconds. This can be done in toxic, oxygen-deficient or contaminated atmospheres so that the user can continue to work, fight fires or even escape from an underground mine.

Wormald’s Fast Fill Stations are safe and easy to use, feature a high performance fully automatic 4-stage cascade system and have low through life costs. They can be fitted with 2 to 20 storage cylinders and 1 to 5 fill outlets to suit requirements.

Manual & Automatic Resuscitation System (MARS)

Wormald offers GCE Sabre Medical’s Manual & Automatic Resuscitation System (MARS) as part of its Life Safety & Rescue equipment portfolio and is the exclusive GCE trained service provider in Australia and New Zealand for the system.

Particularly suitable for the mining industry, the Sabre MARS offers both manual and automatic resuscitation modes and is based around two central components – the control module and the patient valve. The gas supply is passed through the automatic channel and delivered to the patient as a specific breathing programme, according to the chosen flow rate.

Water Cannons

Wormald offers the Akron Brass water cannon range, which includes a number of systems specifically designed and built for the mining industry. These include Severe-Duty Electric, Hydraulic, Automated, Semi-automated, Programmable and the Omega Severe Duty range – all of which are built to outlast and outperform other manual water cannons.

A wide range of water and foam nozzles are also available for fire fighting, dust suppression, cleaning and washdown applications.
