Line Power/Electric Motor Repair & Sales
At this year’s Bluefield event, Line Power will feature the latest in mining power equipment. On display will be the next generation of the Line Power Down Time Saver, the DTS II feeder circuit protector. DTS II is the second generation of the DTS Down Time Saver series of feeder and motor circuit protectors. The introduction of the original DTS feeder circuit protector revolutionized the mining electrical products industry by placing all the components of a feeder circuit in one draw-out tray that can be drawn out for troubleshooting or quickly replaced, minimizing down time.
Now, with hundreds of DTS units in service, Line Power continues its success with the DTS II, incorporating all the features of the original DTS in a smaller and lighter package. The DTS II is 30% smaller and 25% lighter than the original Down Time Saver and features red and green ready indicators, safety shutters on power stabs, drawer-in-a-drawer arrangement for access to control circuits and a visible disconnect with automatic grounding.
Electric Motor Repair & Sales, a sister company to Line Power, will also be exhibiting at the Bluefield Coal Show. Since 1958, EMRS has been the area’s largest continually owned electric motor repair facility in the southwest Virginia/northeast Tennessee area.

NL Technologies
NL Technologies has added two new features to its digital network, including real-time data acquisition from mining equipment for both longwall and continuous miners.
The NL Digital Compact Node can be added to almost any piece of moving machinery, allowing it to become part of NL’s network, and includes input capability on the equipment side to capture machine-generated data.
This feature allows mines to use equipment more effectively by ensuring timely preventive maintenance while maximizing factors like load capacity. It also allows for corrective action for operators running equipment outside of specifications, and a supervisor can be alerted when new operators attempt to do this.
The company has also added mobile collaboration to its network through intelligent video conferencing end points. Essentially, hand-held video cameras incorporate voice, video and telestration (just like NFL football) into an IP65 device that is approved for use in Class 1 Div 2 gassy environments. It can even withstand multiple drops to concrete from 3 feet.
The real benefit of the technology is that a maintenance person or onsite technician can remotely engage an expert anywhere in the world. The device is being used in diverse locations, including mines at 14,000ft in Chile and nuclear power plants in Canada.
The camera has features designed specifically for the industrial market and has a high-intensity LED ring so that lighting is never a problem.
You can connect an external microphone to pick up things like bearing noise, and a borescope to extend the video capability into hard-to-reach places.
NL Digital products are available through Becker Wholesale Mine Supply anywhere in the country.
