Shell Coal’s Moranbah North Colliery received the first longwall electrics to be designed and manufactured by Ampcontrol. The project included a non flameproof substation and a flameproof DCB, Control & Monitoring Unit, Tailgate Unit, cables and lighting.

Today, the Longwall Mining industry is a significant customer. Ampcontrol supplies state of the art longwall mining and flameproof systems to meet the needs of the world’s largest mines. The reliability, modular construction and compatibility with other equipment, makes these systems a popular choice.
