Description

The National Coal Mining Museum for England is aware of the need to update and convert our hydraulic winder to an electrical system. The existing hydraulic winder system is plus-thirty years old and the valves are now obsolete. The braking system at present is such that dynamic braking is achieved using the hydraulic circuit prior to mechanical brakes being applied, in instances of issue or failure with the hydraulic system this can leave the cage temporarily under the action of gravity while the mechanical brakes are applied.

Additionally the electrical system is similarly old and potentially obsolete, as a result the National Coal Mining Museum for England would welcome interest from providers able to upgrade and update the electrical system, safety panels and electrical interfaces in addition to the winder proper.

We invite suppliers, contractors and interested organisations to advise us as to costs, expected achievements and translation estimates - grounded in factual analysis and projections - of what could be expected through any winder conversion project thus undertaken.
