Bergstrom Introduces New Heavy-Duty Air Conditioning Systems for Mining at MINExpo 2016

Mining professionals from around the world attending MINExpo International^®, held from September 26-28 in Las Vegas, got their first look at new HVAC systems from Bergstrom that are designed for the mining industry.

The new products – the BES2600LH and the DBAC-100, 101 and 200 – are OEM-quality, durable and cost-effective solutions for mine operators who are looking for hydraulically-driven or electrified no-idle solutions for mining vehicles.

“We’re very excited to launch these new product lines here at MINExpo. These are cost-effective HVAC solutions for the harsh environment mining vehicles are used in,” said Tom Fisher, engineering manager of Bergstrom Electrified Systems division. “Whether it’s 45°C in the Southwest or -25°C up north, operators will be comfortable. Most importantly, with Bergstrom on your side you can count on quality systems that are extremely reliable.”
The BES2600LH is a brand new hydraulically-driven unit designed to keep operators of a variety of mining vehicles comfortable.

The roof-mounted system contains a heavy-duty hydraulic compressor unit and weighs just over 110 kg. It boasts an industry leading performance capacity of 27 kJ/h (25,932 BTU/h) for cooling and 36 kJ/h (34,120 BTU/h) for heating. The unit has a rugged steel base that offers superior durability and protection to perform in the most punishing environments.
Bergstrom’s triple crown DBAC product line is an electrified air conditioning system engineered for the harshest conditions. It was originally launched in Europe by Dirna Bergstrom, a Bergstrom subsidiary, and is now available to U.S. customers.

The DBAC product line offers a choice of 3 different evaporators to service any vehicle configuration. The evaporator styles include a thin, vertical wall or floor-mounted system, a universal tower-style system or a horizontal under-the-seat or headliner system. The driving force behind the versatile evaporators is a heavy-duty steel constructed case that encapsulates the electric compressor, dual fan powered condenser and receiver drier. The DBAC systems are available in 12 V or 24 V and generate 7.2 kJ/h (6,824 BTU/h) and 11.5 kJ/h (10,919 BTU/h) respectively.

“The introduction of these new products is part of Bergstrom’s continued innovation efforts,” said Gus Anton, North American Division president of Bergstrom. “We’ve recruited many of the industry’s top engineering professionals and equipped them with state-of-the-art equipment and facilities. This allows us to respond to changing market needs and continuously improve existing solutions.”
