DeLMag RHV 40 ROTaRY<br />
DRILLINg RIg<br />
The engines of the units comply with<br />
European emission standard EU stage IIIB,<br />
which comes into force in 2011.<br />
THe RHV 40 ROTaRY DRILLINg RIg WaS DeSIgNeD <strong>FOR</strong> LaRge<br />

The RHV 40 has a torque capacity of 400 kNm and is characterised by high<br />
stability and good torsional stiffness. The leader can be tipped forwards and<br />
consists of two sections. For transport, the upper leader section plus kelly bar,<br />
rotary table and counterweight are removed and transported on a second<br />
low-loader. The complete setting-up procedure is carried out solely with the<br />
on-board equipment, no additional plant is required.<br />
The RHV 40 is mounted on ABI’s own T 122 D carrier. The machine can be<br />
supplied with either a Scania or a CAT engine, which develop 405 and 403 kW<br />
respectively. The engines meet European emission standard EU stage IIIB and<br />
American standard US EPA tier 4 interim. However, the machine can also be<br />
fitted with engines that comply with EU stage IIIA or EPA tier 3.<br />
Besides traditional drilling with a kelly bar, this powerful rotary drilling rig is also<br />
suitable for CFA drilling or lined holes using the DELMAG twin rotary head or the<br />
VDW (“in front of the wall”) drilling system. n<br />
LEADER-GUIDED MRZV-VV<br />
VIBRATOR WITH<br />
COMBINATION CLAMPING UNIT<br />
The new, powerful MRZV-VV generation of variable vibrators is being<br />
launched onto the market together with the new combination clamping<br />
unit with sliding and rotating individual clamps.<br />
With the VV vibrators it is not only the eccentric moment<br />
that is adjustable, but also the oil flow and the hydraulic<br />
motor. This means it is still possible to work very efficiently<br />
even at a low r.p.m. with a high eccentric moment and<br />
hence a high feed rate, for instance. The other variation<br />
involves reducing the vibration load on the environment by<br />
working at a very high r.p.m. Irrespective of whether<br />
working very efficiently or very gently or somewhere in<br />
between these two extremes to suit the particular building<br />
site, the power provided by the carrier machine is used<br />
almost to the full over the whole r.p.m. range.<br />
This optimum use of the power available opens up new<br />
opportunities. Comparable driving tasks can now be carried<br />
out using machines with a lower driving power, or more<br />
difficult tasks with the same driving power. This cuts<br />
investment and running costs and at the same time lowers<br />
the impact on the environment by sparing resources.<br />
Deploying the new MRZV-VV vibrators with the combination<br />
clamping unit enables very efficient working. Various double<br />
Z- and U-sections and tubular piles can be driven using the<br />
combination clamping unit. Setting-up is carried out manually<br />
without the need for any assembly work. The double<br />
clamping unit is currently offered in two sizes: a small<br />
version for a centrifugal force of up to 800 kN, and a large<br />
version for max. 1250 kN. The smaller combination<br />
clamping unit can handle tube inside diameters between<br />
460 and 760 mm; the larger version is for tubes with an<br />
inside diameter of 660–1090 mm. n<br />
The benefits of MRZV-VV vibrators<br />
• Adjustable eccentric moment and<br />
r.p.m.<br />
• Constant centrifugal force over a<br />
wide r.p.m. range<br />
• Greater amplitude than conventional<br />
leader-guided variable vibrators<br />
• Lower running costs thanks to<br />
optimised power output over a wide<br />
r.p.m. range<br />
• Low ground vibration thanks to<br />
high speeds up to 2600 r.p.m.<br />
• Max. centrifugal force even at a low<br />
r.p.m.<br />
• Same driving tasks with a lower<br />
power output from the base<br />
machine<br />
The benefits of combination<br />
clamping units<br />
• Suitable for Z- and U-sections in the<br />
form of double piles, also tubular<br />
piles<br />
• Faster section changes, manual<br />
setting-up possible<br />
• Less wear on the heads of the<br />
sections<br />
• Accurate positioning of piles<br />
