Summary:
The introduction of these PRC Trailer Units, highlighted by superior air quality management, adherence to safety standards, and the ease of mobility, represent a significant leap forward in industrial equipment. The integration of Sy-Klone’s innovative air filtration technologies and a fast tracked supply of these units through Rig Sales Australia, ensure that industries can achieve not only regulatory compliance but also a higher standard of health, safety, and operational efficiency. As industries continue to evolve, the role of technology in enhancing workplace safety and environmental sustainability becomes increasingly crucial. The Rig Sales Australia PRC Trailer Units, with their focus on clean air, safety, and mobility, are at the forefront of this important shift, paving the way for a healthier, safer, and more efficient mining.
Whether it’s ensuring the wellbeing of workers through cleaner air or providing the flexibility needed in dynamic operational environments, the advancements in PRC Trailer Units are redefining industry standards.
A concept around providing absolute environmental protections to the employees in the mining industry that marries up with modern day equipment functions saw the beginning of an innovative design, and now a working product here in Australia. The PRC-Trailer Unit allows remotely operated machinery to be controlled within the confines of an air purified and temperature-controlled cabin mounted on a robust trailer. The PRC-Trailer can be placed in the most remote locations with ease.
Air Quality: A Breath of Fresh Air
Rig Sale Australia’s focus on delivering units that are equipped with the latest technologies for air quality and safety demonstrates their commitment to the well-being of operators and the environment. By partnering with innovators like Sy-Klone, Rig Sales Australia ensures that their clients have access to equipment that meets the highest standards of efficiency, safety, and operational excellence.
In any industrial setting, the importance of air quality cannot be overstated. Poor air can lead to significant health issues for workers and can also affect the efficiency of machinery. PRC Trailer Units equipped with air purification systems by Sy-Klone, are at the forefront of addressing these challenges. Sy-Klone’s advanced air filtration systems ensure that the air within the PRC units is clean, reducing the risk of airborne contaminants affecting workers. This commitment to air quality not only complies with environmental regulations but also promotes a healthier workplace.
Sy-Klone: Innovating for Cleaner Air
Sy-Klone International is a name synonymous with cutting-edge solutions for air quality. Their RESPA® Cabin Air Quality Systems, when integrated into PRC Trailer Units, significantly enhance the safety and comfort of operators. By providing clean, filtered air, Sy-Klone systems protect workers from the myriad of health risks associated with poor air quality, thereby underscoring the importance of advanced air filtration in industrial equipment.
While the Trailer Unit is not designed as refuge in a life and death emergency situation it does provide safety with its Sy-Klone air purification in the pressurised cabin. The significance of this is that when the door is opened on entry or exit, the air pushes out to ensure dust particles are repelled from entering the cabin. In an environment like mining, road works and so forth, dust particles are disturbed in large volumes. Inhaling these particles has seen a significant rise in health issues including silicosis.
Complimentary to the clean air is the air conditioning inside the cabin to protect operators from the extremes in temperature we are all familiar with across Australia. Heat stroke and dehydration can be fatal and even a mild case can take some time for full recovery. Operators suffering in harsh climates are unable to focus to full capacity, and given their isolation at times this brings its own safety concerns.
Safety: Prioritizing Well-Being
The safety of workers is paramount in any operational setting. PRC Trailer Units are designed with numerous safety features that prioritize user well-being. From ergonomic designs that minimize the risk of physical strain to advanced systems that prevent chronic health issues, these units embody a commitment to safety.
Equipped with a FOPs roof for added protection in mine sites, these trailers boast a certified 12/24/240 volt electrical system meeting Australian and BMA standards and are wind-rated to withstand 160km/h winds. Designed to thrive in harsh environments, the trailer units prioritise operator safety by offering a clear view of remotely operated equipment.
Ease of Mobility: Taking Efficiency Anywhere
One of the standout features of the new PRC Trailer Units is their remarkable ease of mobility. Designed to be highly portable, these units can be quickly and easily relocated to where they are most needed, thus maximizing operational flexibility. This mobility also allows for rapid response to varying site requirements, making them indispensable in dynamic industrial environments where time and efficiency are critical.
Debut at Saraji Mine Queensland
“On Friday the 13th of September 2024, the first fully certified and BMA approved PRC-Trailer Unit made its journey to the Saraji Mine site in north Queensland. Rig Sales Australia finally achieved their Michelin Star equivalent for the mining industry”
– Sarah Coombs
After finessing the first unit Rig Sales are well equipped to speed up the process and expedite delivery of the next 13 units currently ready to arrive in Queensland for BMA. With a big thanks to the talented staff at Dynamic Equipment Solutions, NB Industries and Major Electrical in Mackay, Rig Sales Australia have passed the very stringent but necessary testing for use at Saraji site.
“Starting at the top means we have learned every curve ball that can come at us. With another unit heading over to Saraji this week I am confident we can deliver these units with ease in the future and the production time will be a fraction of the time spent on the prototype.”

The design of PRC-Trailer Units emphasizes ease of mobility, allowing them to be quickly and easily transported to various job sites. This mobility facilitates flexible deployment wherever they are needed, greatly enhancing operational efficiency. Sites can adapt to changing project scales or locations without the need for multiple stationary units. The ability to move PRC-Trailer Units on demand minimizes delays, supports continuous operation across different sites, and directly contributes to a more efficient and productive workflow.
The incorporation of Sy-Klone air filtration systems into PRC-Trailer Units offers significant benefits, primarily centered around improved air quality. These systems effectively remove dust, pollutants, and other airborne contaminants, ensuring a healthier and safer environment for workers. With advanced filtration techniques, they also extend the life of the machinery by preventing the ingress of harmful particles. This results in enhanced operational efficiency, reduced downtime due to equipment maintenance, and compliance with health and safety regulations.
