Energy-Saving Advantages of DTH Hammers for Water Well Drilling Rigs

News 23 Views
The water well drilling rig DTH hammer cuts energy use significantly.

 

  1. High energy efficiency: Converts 60-70% energy, vs. 30-40% for hydraulic hammers. Saves 20-30% power.
  2. Low fuel use: Small rigs with low-pressure hammers use 1.2L/m. Same-power rotary rigs need 1.8L/m.
  3. Deep well savings: Air loss under 20% in 150m wells. Stable impact avoids energy spikes with depth.

 

A 50-well project saved over 3,000L diesel. The water well drilling rig pairs well with variable-frequency compressors for more cuts.
