2025 Caterpillar Mobile Equipment Charger MEC500
A first of its kind for the mining industry, the Cat® MEC500 Mobile Equipment Charger is a standalone fast charging system designed to charge quickly and safely wherever it’s needed.
Features may include:- Capable of being dragged on its skid base – or lifted in a bucket or by forks. The unit can be lowered down a mine shaft using military-grade lift eyes.
- Ready for high vibration, seismic and shock loading – the unit is isolation mounted to the skid base, and the Electronic Control Modules (ECM’s) are also iso mounted.
- Rated to IP66 under IEC standard 60529, the MEC500 protects critical components from both dust and water, including doghouse sections where electrical input and output connections are made.
- Built-ins: sealed air conditioning, dehumidification, an integrated Cat radiator, and two on-demand fans support cooling.
- Cat patented charging cable (available in lengths of 10 or 15 m/33 ft or 49 ft) is metal jacketed for extra mechanical and electrical protection.
