Mining
Eaton meets the harsh and demanding environments of the mining and minerals processing industry with reliable products and solutions designed to operate in these challenging applications. Our unique approach to managing the power system as a strategic, integrated asset provides enhanced safety for workers and a power system that is more reliable, efficient and safe.
Reliability - Harsh Duty Cycle Component Solutions - Our components offer high mechanical duty cycle ratings with a wide range of capabilities to flexibly plug and play with not only Eaton components, but with other suppliers’ control components as well. Eaton also offers a variety of customizable power backup systems to keep the mining control and information centers operating continuously through utility power brownouts and blackouts.
Efficiency- Meeting Multiple Global Standards - Eaton’s globally certified components offer the ability for one global design with just one part number, enabling cost-effective operation over the total life cycle of the product.
- Customized, Cost-Effective Assembly Solutions - Custom equipment can be integrated to perform a wide range of control and automation functions. And, Eaton’s electrical business was first in offering the Integrated Facilities System concept, a totally integrated power control and management solution shipped in one enclosure, configured and pre-tested for quick installation and commissioning.
- Aftermarket Service Solutions - Eaton’s Electrical Services and Systems (EESS) team is available to not only support the design and testing of your electrical equipment, but for installation, commissioning, maintenance and aftermarket-upgrade of your equipment in the field - whether your equipment utilizes Eaton components or components from other manufacturers.
Safety - Focus on Personnel & Environmental Safety - Eaton's electrical protection components also offer arc-fault reduction capabilities that dramatically reduce exposure to electrical shock and arc-flash safety hazards, as well as reduce the possibility of explosions within mines. Power distribution equipment can be safe-locked with arc-flash reduction capabilities as well.

Eaton’s Electrical Services & Systems (EESS) Eaton’s Electrical Services & Systems team of engineers offers a comprehensive portfolio of services tailored for every stage of a power system’s life - design, build and support. |
 |
Systems analysis and design Eaton engineers create a comprehensive view of the entire power system. With that information, flexibility is strategically built into the system, so that the power system can adapt to changing requirements. |
 |
Energy Solutions Eaton engineers identify wasteful patterns in total energy consumption from all sources - electricity, steam, gas and compressed air - and recommend more efficient solutions to reduce overall energy use. |
 |
Training Eaton offers training for workers to teach them how to spot danger and avoid it. With this knowledge, workers can do a better job of protecting themselves. |
 |
Arc flash hazard analysis This service identifies places in the power system where there’s risk of an arc flash. Once the dangers are known, they can be managed. |
 |
Turnkey solutions Installation of a modern Eaton system offers improved system service, plant availability and plant operation costs. This turnkey approach enhances the protection of generators and turbines - saving millions of dollars. |
