Heap Leaching Elution Heaters for Mining Applications

Rugged Hot Water Pressure Washers and Steam Cleaners for Mining Operations

Loaders, drills, excavators, crawlers, dump trucks, graders, draglines, and conveyors take a lot of abuse with continual use and get extremely dusty, muddy, grimy, and greasy on the mine site. They require periodic cleaning to keep them in top working order and most importantly safe.

Cleaning equipment at mine sites has some unique challenges. The equipment is usually very large with many moving parts and requires grease and hydraulic fluid to work properly. Most mine sites are located in remote locations with challenging terrain, and some are located at high altitudes above 10,000 feet. Some mines require cleaning equipment that has an explosion proof rating for hazardous location.

Mining operations require industrial hot water pressure washers and steam cleaners that are constructed of heavy duty components that make the units durable and reliable in severe and demanding conditions. Hot water pressure washers need to provide the best water temperature, flow, and pressure rating for the task. Industrial steam cleaners need to provide 320°F steam to easily remove service fluids and grease, such as Moly grease, from equipment. 

Sioux manufactures a full line of pressure washers, steam cleaners, and combination units that are engineered to solve some of the most challenging cleaning problems encountered in mining operations.
