Schauenburg Caplamp Charging Rack | Mining Lamp Rooms

Power Every
Shift Reliably

A high-density caplamp charging solution engineered for demanding mining and lamp room environments. Designed to ensure every lamp is charged, safe, and ready for every shift.

Built for South African Mining Conditions

Schauenburg Systems’ Caplamp Charging Racks are engineered specifically for the demanding mining environment in South Africa, where safety, reliability, and operational efficiency are critical. Manufactured from durable coated spring steel and designed to operate in extreme temperatures ranging from –20 °C to +50 °C

These charging racks deliver long-term performance even in harsh, high-humidity conditions common in local lamp rooms and support facilities.

With models available in 30-way, 60-way, and 120-way 200-Way configurations

The system provides high-density charging capacity while maintaining ample spacing between ports for safe handling and easy maintenance. The improved charging circuit, and integrated protection features—such as overcharge and short-circuit protection—ensure highly efficient, stable, and safe charging cycles for users Caplamps

Features

High-Density Charging

Supports up to 200 Caplamps in a compact footprint to reduce lamp room congestion.

Each rack row can be serviced without shutting down the entire system.

Ensures stable, efficient charging even with fluctuating power supply conditions.

Built-in overcharge and short-circuit protection safeguards lamps and users.

LED indicators provide immediate charging status visibility for operators.

Manufactured from coated spring steel for long-term durability in harsh environments.

Problems Solved in the Underground Environment

1. Unreliable or Inefficient Charging Infrastructure
Many operations rely on aging or inconsistent charging systems. Schauenburg’s PWM-controlled, high-efficiency power circuitry ensures stable charging performance even under fluctuating grid conditions, improving lamp readiness and battery longevity.

2. Lamp Room Congestion and Operational Bottlenecks
High-capacity racks with up to 200 charging points reduce physical footprint while preventing congestion during shift changes and ensuring lamps are always charged and available.

3. Maintenance Downtime
Each row on the rack can be maintained independently without switching off the entire rack. This design eliminates unnecessary downtime and supports continuous underground operations.

4. Safety and Compliance Risks
With built-in protection mechanisms, reliable grounding requirements, short-circuit protection, and visual LED indicators for charging status, the racks support safe lamp-room operation and reduce the risk of equipment failure in constrained Lamproom spaces.
