8150LS: GEOPROBE SYSTEMS® NEW FULL-SIZE SONIC RIG
More Power Needed from the Head
With a theoretical dynamic force of 50,000 pounds at 150 Hz, and a 2-speed rota- tion with 4,000 ft-lbf and up to 140 rpm, the new GV5 sonic head is a substantial increase in power over the mid-sized Geoprobe® sonic rigs. And, most importantly, it's designed built, and serviced by Team Geoprobe® so you can be confident when you take this head to the field.
Big Horsepower - The 225-horsepower 8150LS is unique in several ways. First, we added positioning functionality. Not only does the drill mast move fore and aft relative to the track base, it also can be shifted left to right, up and down, and run at angles up to 45 degrees off of vertical. Second, we added additional winch options, including a 400-plus foot sand-line. Third, since an 8150LS can go deeper and ac- commodate larger tooling, we added a 14-inch breakout option and a more power- ful rod handler. Fourth, we made extras, like a shifting breakout and weight-on-bit control, standard. And finally, we wanted to make mobilization between interna- tional projects simpler, so we designed the 8150LS to drive right in to a 40-foot- high cube shipping container (door open- ing: 101 inches wide by 92 inches tall).
Design It. Test It. Manufacture It. - None of the Geoprobe® sonic tool- ing design or manufacturing process is outsourced. It's the only way to maintain total control of production. And it's the way we can assure the delivery of high- quality products with the consistency of performance you've come to expect...
