READ BELOW FOR SOME ADDITIONAL AI INFORMATION FOUND The Fecon EX300S Explorer is a rubber track crawler drill rig, designed for seismic, geothermal, and test drilling, featuring a 46 hp Kubota engine for the rig, a 99 hp Kubota for its Ingersoll Rand 300 CFM / 200 PSI compressor, two-speed hydrostatic travel, 14-inch rubber tracks, and a 10-foot drill steel capacity. It has a lightweight design at approximately 10,000 lbs, making it suitable for limited-access drilling. Base machine weight: 10,379 lbs (4,707 kg). Dimensions (L x W x H): 194" x 73" x 94" (4,298mm x 1,854mm x 2,387mm). Travel transmission: 2-speed hydrostatic. Travel speed (low/high): 0-7 mph (0-11.3 kph). Counter-rotating tracks: Yes. Swing lower rolls: Yes. COMPRESSOR Engine make/model: Kubota diesel. Horsepower: 46 hp (34.3 kW). Maximum RPM: 2800. Air compressor: Ingersoll Rand 300 CFM / 200 PSI. Rubber track width: 14" (355mm). Ground clearance: 12" (304mm). Ground contact: 78" x 14" (198mm x 355mm). Gradeability: 25 degrees. Drill push down: 5,700 lbs. Drill pull back: 9,500 lbs. Drill steel: 10 ft length, 2.5" diameter. On-board drill rod capacity: Yes. Depth: It is rated for up to 300 feet (about 91 meters) of depth, though typical seismic "shot holes" are in the 20–30 foot range. Drill rods: The EX300S uses 10-foot long, 2.5-inch diameter drill rods. It comes equipped with on-board storage capacity. Push-down and pull-back force: The hydraulic system can generate 5,700 lbs of push-down force and 9,500 lbs of pull-back force. Variable speed: The drill stem has a variable RPM range of 0–250 rpm. Hydraulic breakout: A hydraulic breakout system for the drill rods is included at both the top and bottom of the mast. Auger drilling: The rig is equipped with auger rods to drill through soft ground. Percussion drilling: For hard or rocky ground, the unit can use an on-board air hammer, powered by a robust Ingersoll Rand compressor. The compressor provides 300 cubic feet per minute (CFM) of air at 200 pounds per square inch (PSI). Rotary drilling: A drill mast, powered by a 99 hp Kubota diesel engine, allows the EX300S to perform rotary drilling. The EX300S is well-suited for geotechnical work, which involves testing and analyzing soil and rock conditions to determine suitability for construction. Its capabilities in this field include: Site investigation: Drilling test boreholes to assess subsurface conditions for roads, bridges, and buildings. Foundation analysis: The ability to perform auger and percussion drilling to collect soil and rock samples for laboratory testing and foundation design. Remote access: The low-pressure rubber tracks allow the rig to access remote or environmentally sensitive sites that larger, heavier equipment cannot reach. The machine's compact design and all-terrain traction make it a practical choice for smaller-scale geothermal loop installation, especially in residential or light commercial settings. Minimal disturbance: The rubber tracks prevent damage to existing landscaping, lawns, and paved surfaces. Maneuverability: The rig can navigate tight or confined spaces on a property to reach the optimal drilling location. Versatile drilling: It can handle the varied ground conditions often encountered when drilling for geothermal ground loops. The EX300S is used for various drilling needs in the energy and construction sectors. Right-of-way clearing: Before construction begins on new power lines or pipelines, the EX300S can clear the way and perform exploration drilling. Site preparation: It aids in clearing and preparing sites for various infrastructure projects where drilling is needed. Oil and gas exploration: The EX300S is utilized for exploration activities related to oil and gas infrastructure.
