CPS 550-200 portable air compressors mounted on excavator drills
A perfect match for high performance drilling
India is ranked 2nd among the world’s coal producing countries. Conventional drills with truck mounted compressors were used in the past for over-burden (O/B) drilling in coal mines. Excavator drills mounted with portable air compressors are now the new heroes in coal mines to meet DGMS (Directorate General of Mines Safety) norms for better stability and safe operations.
Higher productivity is also achieved, as with excavator mounted compressors more holes can be drilled at one time as compared to compressors on truck mounted drills.
In coal mines….equipment durability, high fuel efficiency, drilling productivity and no major maintenance issues are important requirements for smooth drilling operations. The CPS550-200 compressor meets these standards and gets the job done!
“The CPS550-200 perfectly synchronises with excavators to deliver efficient drilling performance. With truck mounted compressors, if the drilling performance is 70 meters per hour, with the excavator mounted CPS550-200, there is an additional 10 meters per hour achieved”.
The CPS550-200 portable diesel compressor has been working efficiently for JRR Projects LLP for over 8000 hours without any significant breakdown.
I appreciate the Chicago Pneumatic sales and service team for their on-time response and aftermarket support. In my experience, the CPS550-200 is the most ideal compressor for coal mining excavator mounted drilling.
