Miner Cap Lamp Works with Tracking Tags
NLT recently introduced its second-genera-tion all-in-one mining cap lamp, the
Genesis. The lamp's design includes the
ability to integrate tracking tags while keep-ing the battery and light source in a single
enclosure. Mine operators can choose from
a number of standard RFID or Wi-Fi tags,
powered by the cap lamp's high-capacity
battery. Using the same contemporary
design as NLT's Polaris lamp (shown here),
the Genesis provides a light pattern that's
consistent with all NLT lamps, providing a
focused spot. The Genesis is currently
being field-tested and will be available in
October 2012, and an intrinsically safe ver-sion approved for use in coal mines is also
in the product pipeline.
