KAL500 eco-drill specifications:

Power-plant

The KAL500 is powered by a highly efficient MTU Series 2000 905hp V12 engine. An oversized engine capacity was chosen to power the KAL500, because lower engine loads provide:

  • Fuel consumption levels as low as 60 litres per hour. This greater fuel efficiency is because our competitors use smaller engines operating at higher loads.
  • Increased service engine life (Anticipated 20,000hrs life between overhaul)

As a preferred supplier for Globe Drill rigs, MTU has consistently provided an excellent power-plant, along with outstanding back-up service.

Air Compressor

Air supply is provided by a direct coupled Sullair 500psi compressor.

The compressor operating pressure range is variable from 350psi to 500psi and variable cfm output from 900cfm to 1350 cfm providing maximum flexibility for the different drilling conditions and methods operator.

Globe Drill's unique compressor control system reduces cfm and pressure rating, as the compressor unloads, or the air is switched off which greatly reduces the compressor bearing loads and energy requirements, This results in extended air end life and contributes to overall operating costs.
