THE HAPPY MEDIUM FOR GEOTHERMAL ENERGY

The Boxer 150 GT is a stunning mid-size machine that’s incredibly lightweight. The rig can be transported on one single transport, which is what makes it so popular in geothermal energy. This machine is considerably more powerful than the Boxer 120 GT, while being not that much bigger than its smaller counterpart. Its compact size enables it to easily handle sites where space is at a premium. The 150 GT is equipped with upper frame rotation so it doesn’t damage gardens or paving. Its long-stroke outriggers also make it easy to set up on any slope or embankment.

The Conrad Boxer 150 GT has a maximum traction force of 7 tonnes and can drill holes up to 250 metres, making most geothermal energy projects within easy reach. Despite its compact size, this drilling rig can be equipped with 3 or 4-metre pipes. These are controlled via a manipulator making the 150 GT extremely interesting both ergonomically and financially, as it reduces staffing costs.

The Boxer 150 GT hydraulic system is top class. Well-known German brands are used for both the hydraulic drives and control valves. It’s an excellent entry-level machine or for use as a reserve in the total machine fleet.

The Scanreco operating system makes life so much easier for every drill operator. Operators can use the multi-functional controller for quick menu navigation on the eight-inch LCD monitor. The hi-res anti-reflection screen is always easy to read even when the sun’s shining and the updated layout provides a clear overview and amazing functionality.

The Boxer 150 GT can be equipped with various types of water pumps, including a centrifugal, piston or positive displacement pump. This Boxer can also be used with the Preventer for cased drilling.
