ELGi unveils air-compressor for granite, marble mining operations

ELGi Equipments unveiled a brand new trolley-mounted compressor model - PG75E-12.5 at the 10th edition of India Stone Mart 2019, in Jaipur, Rajasthan. ELGi has also displayed its entire range of trolley-mounted compressors best suited for granite and marble mining applications: PG550-200, PG450-200, PG22E-7 and PG75E-12.5 models. ELGi?s portable compressors are available in single and two-stage models. These compressors find wide range of application across the cable laying, blast-hole drilling, exploratory drilling, construction, coal and marble mining, sandblasting, stone mining and crawler drilling. The portable screw air compressors feature energy saving eta-V profile air-ends, resulting in significant savings in energy costs. Fitted with international warranty engines, every ELGi portable air compressor ensures better fuel economy and lower emissions, all while providing uptime and durable performance at a low cost of ownership, coupled with longer service intervals and easy maintenance, according to the company.

?ELGi has a legacy of providing reliable compressed air solutions to the mining industry for over four decades,? said Ramesh Ponnuswami, Executive Director, ELGi. ?Our compressors score high on reliability as they deliver the required drilling rate to the drilling units, and are very fuel-efficient too. Since they have to work in dusty areas and high ambient temperatures, every compressor has been fitted with pre-cleaners and a filtration system that prevents dust from entering the compressor and the engines. With a robust industrial grade steel enclosure and powder coated canopy, our compressors offer maximum corrosion resistance and durability. ELGi?s portable compressors are manufactured locally and are therefore available on-demand and provide for ease of use via our ELGi parts and product support through tailor-made warranty programs,? he added.
