Why NevaFail™

High-brightness LED with fail-safe reflective backing

A NevaFail™ panel pairs high-brightness LEDs with a fail-safe retroreflective backing: if power is interrupted, the equipment number stays readable by day, by night and in low light. Operators, dispatch and supervisors coordinate on the same visible reference. Background and standards in LED identification for mining vehicles.

  • Fast identificationThe number reads from a distance, speeding up dispatch and fleet control.
  • Meets the BMA specSupports mining equipment visual ID standards.
  • 95A polyurethane bodyOne piece, resistant to corrosion, impact and vibration.
  • Reassign without replacingInterchangeable models change number on site with the supplied blanks.

Equipment number

Three ways to set the number

A NevaFail™ equipment number is set in three ways: interchangeable digits changed on site, fixed characters cut to order, or fixed letters combined with an interchangeable number. The choice depends on how each operation numbers its fleet.

01

Interchangeable

1 to 3 digits swapped with the supplied blanks, polycarbonate front panel. All sizes.

02

Custom

Fixed letters and numbers for 4 or more digits, in water-jet cut black polyurethane.

03

Hybrid

Fixed letters plus an interchangeable number: for fleets with an area or equipment prefix.

Part numbers

NevaFail™ range by format and digit

NevaFail™ digit height is chosen by machine size and reading distance: 300 mm for mobile plant under 120 t, 400 mm for 120 t and over, and 600 mm for the front of water carts and haul trucks.

FAQ

NevaFail™ FAQ

What is NevaFail™?
NevaFail™ is an LED identification panel for mining equipment made by National Plastics & Rubber in Brisbane, Australia. It shows the number of each haul truck, water cart or mobile machine with high-brightness LEDs and a fail-safe reflective backing, in an IP68 95A polyurethane body that runs on 24 V.
What happens if a NevaFail™ panel loses power?
The number stays readable. Besides the high-brightness LEDs, the NevaFail™ panel has a fail-safe retroreflective backing certified to ASTM D4956, the same standard as road signs, which keeps the equipment ID visible by day, by night and in low light even when power is interrupted.
Which NevaFail™ digit height do I need?
NevaFail™ digit height depends on the machine: 300 mm for mobile plant under 120 t (for example NPR06709-00), 400 mm for machines of 120 t and over (NPR08249-00) and 600 mm for the front of water carts and haul trucks (NPR08564-00 and NPR08673-00). We help you choose it for the reading distance on your site.
Can the equipment number be changed?
Yes, on interchangeable NevaFail™ panels: 1 to 3 digits are swapped on site with the supplied blanks, behind a polycarbonate front panel, without replacing the panel. For 4 or more characters or fixed combinations use the custom model, in water-jet cut black polyurethane; the hybrid pairs fixed letters with an interchangeable number.
What voltage does it run on and how is it mounted?
The whole NevaFail™ range runs on 24 V, the standard electrical system of mining machinery. The triangle format mounts by bolt or magnetic base, the square by bolt, and models NPR06709-00, NPR07147-00, NPR08249-00 and NPR08673-00 take the NPR08659-00 handrail bracket.
Which standards does NevaFail™ meet?
The NevaFail™ panel has a retroreflective backing certified to ASTM D4956, meets the BMA equipment identification specification and is IP68 rated against water, dust and oil. It holds Australian patent application no. 2019903240. National Plastics & Rubber puts every product through an extensive field-testing regime.
How is NevaFail™ different from a reflective number box?
A reflective number box, like the roof boxes NPR makes, only reflects the light it receives. NevaFail™ adds high-brightness LEDs to its ASTM D4956 reflective backing: the number shows with its own light in low light and, if power drops, stays readable as a reflective panel.
Where can I buy NevaFail™ in Peru?
