Not Normal Wear.
A six ton metal recuperator was being lifted by an overhead crane onto a low boy truck for use in operations in another facilities pit ops. During the lift a 1/2 inch cable separated from the bridle, causing the recuperator to fall from an elevation of three feet onto the concrete floor below.
Damage to the recuperator bottom plate, tubes, and cable are estimated at $34,000. The Rigger Crew Foreman was not notified by the department prior to the lift to verify tag, last required inspection, wire rope size, capacity, condition and assure cable integrity as required in the JTA, as this was a critical piece of equipment. It is believed one leg of the three leg 1/2 inch wire rope bridle was damaged prior to lifting, as it was not fully observable. Protective rubber hose casing used for protection partially covered wire rope slings. Any down time costs by Pit Ops are being accrued.
