DTH Hammer to a depth of 140 ft. (42.7 m) without reloading the carousel and to greater depth with reloading.  Drill is designed to flexibly switch between Production, Pre-Split or Drain hole drilling and (with options) Reverse Circulation sample drilling. <\/p>\n<p>FEED ASSEMBLY<br \/>\nMast overall length is 32 ft. 7 in. (8865 mm) and 24 ft. (7315 mm) head travel. Hoisting and pulldown power provided by a chain feed system that uses a powerful hydraulic cylinder. <\/p>\n<p>CAROUSEL<br \/>\nThe carousel holds six rods 20 ft (6 m) long . All functions are hydraulically operated. <\/p>\n<p>AIR SYSTEM<br \/>\nDiesel driven Sullair Compressor producing 900 CFM (25.5 m3\/min) at 500 psi (34.5 bar) @ 1800 rpm, or 1050 CFM (29.73m3\/min) at 350 psi @ 2100 rpm, air filtration independent of engine air. Complete with safety shutdown. <\/p>\n<p>POSITIONING<br \/>\nFeed is mounted on a boom with a swing of 35\u00b0 to the right and 30\u00b0 to the left. Can be positioned for drilling horizontally from 4 ft. (1220 mm) to 12.5 ft. (3810 mm) above the grade. Can also be tilted 30\u00b0 left or right of the drill.<\/p>\n<p>CONTROLS<br \/>\nElectric\/Hydraulic controlled through the Programmable Logic Controller. Satellite hydraulic valves are located at the side of the drill for tramming and set-up and on the mast of the drill. <\/p>\n<p>POWER<br \/>\nCAT 3406E (C15) turbo charged after cooled diesel engine, 500 Hp &#8220;IND C&#8221; continuous set at 1800 to 2100 rpm <\/p>\n<p>UNDERCARRIAGE<br \/>\nCat\u00ae special tracks are mounted on an undercarriage designed jointly by Cubex and Caterpillar.
