The Strata ERCM is a modular emergency refuge chamber that consists of multiple attachable sections that can be assembled either before or after delivery. Delivering the chamber in sections helps to address any possible handling and shaft size restrictions. The modular design also provides greater flexibility by allowing operators to order chambers to their existing requirements and add more capacity later. The result is a cost-effective unit that can be modified over time to meet any changing needs of the project, site, and size of the workforce.
Each segment is bolted together either at the Strata facility or on location to create a secure, air-tight seal that matches the high functionality and quality standards of Strata’s traditional single-unit refuge chambers. Every Strata refuge chamber is designed with built-in flexibility to meet local and industry-specific requirements.
“Strata designers have years of experience working closely with customers to understand the essentials needed for an emergency refuge chamber (ERC). With this knowledge, Strata has designed a cost-effective, modular chamber that is designed to accommodate fast delivery and optimized handling,” said Dave Maust, General Manager of Refuge Chambers at Strata Worldwide. “Units can be sitting for long periods with the hope of never needing to be used, but always remain ready. Safety is our highest priority, so we make sure all our ERCs are robust, compliant, and long-lasting.”
