I would like to know the best way to minimise dust in a room full of electrical equipments like breakers & relays.

It wont really matter if it is underground or surface but I'm interested in both. I would like to know how other mining operations keep dust out of an electrical component room on the mining equipment like shovels & drills.
 
May be missing the point, though as start: positive pressure and air lock doors etc.

Positive pressure as in pressurizing the room?
