Booyco Electronics’ Remcon range of products provides industrial networking, telemetry, monitoring and control solutions and has been designed to function optimally with both conventional and contemporary technology. The innovative Remcon Fire Detection system meets the mining industry’s specific requirement for monitoring multiple gases at precise locations underground. Booyco Electronics has supplied some of the industry’s biggest installations in the gold and platinum sectors, including a system comprising 750 sensors.

The Remcon Fire Detection system incorporates Booyco Electronics’ Smart Sensor that enables a localised display of sensor information. Incorporating this sensor in a “plug and play” format makes system maintenance faster and easier, allowing sensors to be replaced underground without the need for recalibration. The sensor can also accommodate up to 15 different gas types. The equipment used for the Remcon Fire Detection system uses open wire modem technology and can run over long distances. The control room system is able to use any industrial type SCADA software package, such as Adroit, iFix, Citect, InTouch and Wincc. All panels are supplied standard with battery backup, a feature considered critical in today’s mining environment where power supply is not always assured. Panels are IP55 rated, while the industrial enclosures are manufactured from mild steel, stainless steel or polycarbonate materials, depending on the application.

Booyco Electronics is a single source market leader that supplies quality specialised electronic safety equipment, including collision intervention systems. Its range of reliable accurate warning, locating and monitoring systems is engineered to operate in the harsh African conditions.
