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 />

PILe DIaMeTeRS: UP TO 2400 MM <strong>FOR</strong> THe STaNDaRD VeRSION,<br />

2700 MM <strong>FOR</strong> THe SPeCIaL VeRSION.<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 />
