The so-called eDumper is now in operation and brings raw material from the stone quarry &#8220;La Tscharner&#8221; in Switzerland to a deeper located conveyor system. At the end of each day, the eDumper is plugged into a 600V\/100KW connector from <a href=\"https:\/\/the-rsgroup.com\/rauscher-stoecklin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rauscher &amp; Stoecklin<\/a> to recharge or to feed the grid with the generated energy.<\/p>\n<p>The project, finished in April 2018, had some exciting challenges on the way. One of them was the construction of the biggest battery in the world. For Rauscher &amp; Stoecklin, this project was an unusual application. It was the first \u201ceMobility\u201d project, thus Rauscher &amp; Stoecklin invented for the male plug system a state-of-the-art finger touch protection. This resulted in having <a href=\"https:\/\/the-rsgroup.com\/products\/industrial-electrical-connectors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">male and female connectors<\/a> with IP4X protection, that ensures maximum safety.<\/p>\n<p>Some specifications about the project:<br \/>\n\u2022 121 tonnes total weight loaded<br \/>\n\u2022 800 PS performance<br \/>\n\u2022 50&#8217;000 l\/year diesel savings<br \/>\n\u2022 130 t\/year CO2 savings<br \/>\n\u2022 3 million CHF project costs<\/p>\n<p class=\"quotation\">R&amp;S has many years of experience in the mining industry. The connectors can handle the rough environmental conditions such as heat, dust, and icing. In our project, these aspects, as well as the safety of our personnel, were the top priorities and the reason we chose R&amp;S as our partner on our side \u2013 and we are happy to have done so.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Andreas Sutter, eMining project manager<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #5587c8;\">About Rauscher &amp; Stoecklin<\/span><br \/>\nRauscher &amp; Stoecklin is part of the Swiss-based R&amp;S Group, a leading provider in selected niches for power products.
