Project Name: PT Dexin Steel Indonesia – Steel Plant Electrical Systems
Product Scope: Cable Trays, C-Profiles (Strut Channels), Metallic Conduits (EMT/Rigid Conduits)
Project Status: Completed | Commissioning Year: 2024
Client/Owner: PT Dexin Steel Indonesia
EPC Contractor/Procurement: MCC Indonesia (Metallurgical Corporation of China Indonesia)
Supplier: Burkaf
PT Dexin Steel Indonesia is one of the largest steel production bases in Indonesia, located in the Morowali Industrial Park in Central Sulawesi. This project is a key capacity cooperation initiative between China and Indonesia under the Belt and Road Initiative, with an annual production capacity of millions of tons, supplying critical steel materials for infrastructure development in Indonesia and Southeast Asia.
Burkaf partnered with MCC Indonesia (Metallurgical Corporation of China Indonesia) to provide cable trays, C-profiles (strut channels), and metallic conduits for the electrical system of this steel plant, meeting the demanding requirements of high-temperature, dusty, and heavy industrial environments.
High-Temperature Environment: Production areas of the steel plant (such as steelmaking and rolling mills) experience high ambient temperatures, with some areas subject to thermal radiation, demanding excellent heat resistance and thermal stability from cable trays and conduits.
Dust and Contamination: Steel production generates significant dust and pollutants, requiring cable support systems to have good sealing and dust resistance to prevent dust accumulation that could affect cable heat dissipation or create safety hazards.
Heavy Industrial Mechanical Vibration: Heavy equipment such as rolling mills and fans generate continuous vibration, demanding sufficient mechanical strength and vibration resistance from the cable tray and support system.
High-Current Power Cable Routing: Steel plants have substantial power loads, with large cross-section power cables in high volumes, requiring the cable tray system to provide ample load capacity and rational routing space.
Coordination with MCC: As a world-renowned metallurgical engineering EPC contractor, MCC imposes strict requirements on supplier technical standards, quality management, and project delivery.
Burkaf provided a combined solution of cable trays, C-profiles, and metallic conduits to fully address the unique demands of the steel plant electrical system in harsh industrial environments.
1. High-Temperature Design for Thermal Load Environments
Burkaf cable trays utilize heat-resistant materials and hot-dip galvanized finishing, maintaining structural strength and electrical continuity without softening or deformation during long-term operation in high-temperature workshops. Metallic conduits provide additional high-temperature isolation protection for cables.
2. Dust Protection and Sealing Performance
Tray covers effectively prevent dust from settling on cable surfaces, reducing dust accumulation risks. Metallic conduits provide fully enclosed protection for critical branch circuits, ensuring cables remain free from contamination and mechanical damage in dusty environments.
3. High Mechanical Strength for Vibration Resistance
Burkaf trays and C-profiles feature thickened steel and high-strength connection designs, capable of withstanding continuous vibration from heavy equipment operation, ensuring long-term stability of the cable support system. C-profile support systems provide reliable hanger and floor-mounted support solutions.
4. High-Capacity Routing for High-Current Power Systems
The cable tray system provides ample routing space and rational分层设计, supporting orderly arrangement of large cross-section power cables for easy heat dissipation and maintenance. Standardized accessories ensure standardized installation.
5. Meeting MCC's Strict Standards
Burkaf products successfully passed technical reviews and quality inspections by MCC Indonesia, with complete product documentation, test reports, and quality traceability documents provided, demonstrating the capability to serve major metallurgical engineering EPC contractors.
6. Reliable Delivery and On-Site Coordination
The project was successfully completed in 2024, with Burkaf achieving batch-by-batch on-time delivery and consistent product quality, supporting the on-site construction schedule with no project delays caused by material issues.
The PT Dexin Steel Indonesia steel plant was successfully commissioned in 2024, achieving designed production capacity.
The Burkaf cable tray, C-profile, and metallic conduit system operated reliably in the harsh environment of high temperature, dust, and vibration, with no electrical failures attributed to the cable tray or conduit system.
Received recognition from MCC Indonesia and the client for product quality and delivery performance.
The successful implementation of this project demonstrates that Burkaf products meet the stringent demands of the steel and metallurgical industry—an extreme industrial environment. The product characteristics of high-temperature resistance, dust protection, and vibration resistance, combined with high-capacity routing design, provide safe and reliable electrical infrastructure support for heavy industrial production.
