IntelliZone™ System Introduction

Engineering Safety • Advancing Automation

Objective

The intent of IntelliZone™ Proximity Detection is to provide a practical, mine-duty system that will automatically warn personnel when they are entering a potentially hazardous area around a machine. The system must be able to disable some or all machine functions if a particular zone is breached.

System Overview

The Matrix IntelliZone™ Proximity Detection System assists with training personnel to stay clear of dangerous zones present around potentially hazardous equipment. The System is designed for use on mobile equipment such as continuous miners, mobile haulage, and other light and heavy vehicles. The System is typically configured for two operational awareness zones: a “shutdown zone” (red) can be defined closest to the equipment and a “warning zone” (yellow) can be defined to extend a moderate distance from the equipment. When an IntelliZone™ Locator is detected within the red zone, the System will prompt the equipment to immediately shutdown some or all of its functions. When an IntelliZone™ Locator is detected within the yellow zone, the System will prompt the equipment to reduce its speed or influence other changes in operation. If a Locator is detected within either zone, the System will initiate highly-visible flashing lights and an audible alarm on the Locator and Drivers to warn personnel of potential hazards.

Additional IntelliZone™ awareness zones can be configured as needed and are customizable to specific equipment and applications.

Standard Miner Configuration

Consists of a shutdown zone (red) and warning zone (yellow), as well as operator zone (green) while cutting. These zones are configurable through software.

IntelliZone™ System Introduction

Expanding Mobile Equipment Zones

Directional Mobile Equipment Zones

On mobile equipment, zones can be configured to react to the equipment’s direction. This prevents the machine from being shut down by personnel walking behind it.

On mobile equipment, zones can be configured to expand as the machine accelerates. Oversized zones are no longer required on faster moving equipment.

Troubleshooting

These issues have been observed by Matrix Technicians.

Inspections

 Locators should be inspected for physical damage before every shift. Locators should also be tested above ground

before every shift.

 Drivers should be inspected for physical damage before every shift.

Operator Dissociating Issues

 RF is CRITICAL to the operation of the system. If the zones are not consistent or the Locator is not tracking well

check RF cables and antenna.

 If the operator moves too far from the machine, he will have to re-associate to use the piece of equipment. The opera-

tor will see the green LEDs flashing on the Drivers when he is NOT the operator.

 If the operator is having to re-associate often, there is likely an issue with the RF antenna or cabling.

Power Supply

 If the system is not powering up, check 72VDC and 24VDC power in the interface board.  If no voltage found on the interface board, check 3A glass fuses in the Power Supply XP box.

The System is designed for use on mobile equipment such as continuous miners, mobile haulage, and other light and heavy vehicles. The System is typically configured for two operational awareness zones: a “shutdown zone” (red) can be defined closest to the equipment and a “warning zone” (yellow) can be defined to extend a moderate distance from the equipment. When an IntelliZone™ Locator is detected within the red zone, the System will prompt the equipment to immediately shutdown some or all of its functions. When an IntelliZone™ Locator is detected within the yellow zone, the System will prompt the equipment to reduce its speed or influence other changes in operation. If a Locator is detected within either zone, the System will initiate highly-visible flashing lights and an audible alarm on the Locator and Drivers to warn personnel of potential hazards.

Additional IntelliZone™ awareness zones can be configured as needed and are customizable to specific equipment and applications.

Emergency Stop Override

The IntelliZone™ Proximity Detection System features an ESO (Emergency Stop Override). This function is only to be used in Emergency situations where the Proximity System must be bypassed. For Continuous Miners this feature is activated with the machine’s remote control. This mode has limited functionality in that it will only allow low speed tram. It is important that all miner operators and/or other personnel that come into contact with the system daily know how this process works in the event of an emergency.
