DM250 Water Well Drill Rig

The durable, mechanical controls neatly laid out on the control panel include engine monitoring, a safety E-stop, hydraulic pressure gauges, holdback control, friction control levers for mud pump and rotation circuits, and electronic throttle controls. Simple operation makes it easy to train new operators. 

Rollers for top head carriage on DM250 create quiet, smooth head travel with simple maintenance.

• long-lasting rollers are easily adjusted.
• rollers permit fast and safe top head travel.
• easy maintenance keeps rig  performing like new.

Minimize time spent standing around waiting on cuttings to rise to top of hole thanks to the top head travel speed on the DM250. The fast travel time up and down the mast increases the uphole velocity pulling mud and cuttings up out of the hole. So rather than wasting time waiting on cuttings to come up out of a 300-foot deep well, you can move on to the next step.

• significantly cut time to clear cuttings from hole with top head travel speed.
• minimize time spent clearing mud and cuttings from hole to maximize production. 
• trade less time standing and waiting for more time drilling and making money.

The DRILLMAX^® DM250 by Geoprobe^® can be set up with centrifugal or piston mud pump and development air to meet your job needs. Mud pump and air compressor options include 3L8, 5x5 duplex, centrifugal pumps and 85cfm development air compressor.

Using the helper side controls to operate the jib and winch functions controls, the helper loads the drill pipe in the single road loader. This makes the DM250 easy to operate with a two-man crew.

The DM250 drill truck table assembly has clearance for 12-inch PVC casing. Table opening positioned outside rig permits placing casing without body contortions.

• easily access table opening positioned at back of rig rather than struggling to reach inside rig.
• contact casing while remain at control panel.
• remove bushings to set up to 12-inch casing.

F600 model comes standard with a hydraulic table, featuring:

• Bushing closest to mast incorporates hydraulic movement.
• Table slips to clamp and hold up-to 6-inch steel casing tight.
• Eliminates chattering pins in coarse sands and gravel for quieter job site.

The holding fork and hydraulically-operated, adjustable breakout wrench make tripping out fast and safe.

Compact size and easy mobility mean getting to and into jobs fast and moving on to the next - whether off-road or a limited-access residential area - without worrying about having a CDL. Drillers enjoy the creature comforts of the factory 4X4 chassis, including air conditioning, cruise control, and bluetooth while minimizing fuel costs achieving 15 mpg on average. Clean layout of the deck, complete with access panels, makes for easier maintenance of securely routed hydraulic hoses from above the rig.

The newest model DM250 on Ford F600 incorporates a number of those requests, including:

INCREASED REAR OUTRIGGER STROKE by 10 inches, providing more clearance to push and pull conductor pipe.

BETTER GROUND CLEARANCE provided by pads sitting 4.5-inches higher and split shaft sitting higher, improving ability to access job sites.

IMPROVED HYDRAULICS including:

• increased cooling capabilities.
• adjustable holdback improving control of down-the-hole hammer when driving casing and finer adjustments to see formation change when completing gravel pack wells.
• improved auxiliary hydraulics for increased flexibility when choosing rig options.

Safe carousel option promptly pays for itself carrying 160-feet of 3-inch drill pipe.. Eliminate worry whether helper will call in sick when you choose carousel option that shows up everyday. 

• create opportunity to task helper with other site chores or run a one-man operation. 
• pipe locks into position within pod canceling chance pipe falls out.
• rotate carousel to place indicator arrow between grooves on base, push handle, and lock carousel into position for safe travel.
• mechanical alignment of top head with rods using indicator arrow and grooves on base eliminates need for electrical sensor that could malfunction.

40-gallon on-board grout mixer runs off of rig hydraulics, saving fuel compared to running an extra engine.

Centralizer tray simplifies storage on rig and provides user-friendly access. Or choose a small rod box to transport an additional 100-feet of 3-inch drill pipe to back feed into carousel instead of a adding a centralizer tray.

Drillers across the country using the DM250 for their water well and geothermal work have been fueling our engineers with ideas and suggestions for improvements. In ongoing efforts to make drilling faster, easier, and safer the newest model DM250 on Ford F600 incorporates a number of those requests, including:

• STANDARD HYDRAULIC TABLE 
• INCREASED REAR OUTRIGGER STROKE by 10 inches, providing more clearance to push and pull conductor pipe.
• BETTER GROUND CLEARANCE provided by pads sitting 4.5-inches higher and split shaft sitting higher, improving ability to access job sites.
• IMPROVED HYDRAULICS including: increased cooling capabilities, adjustable holdback improving control of down-the-hole hammer when driving casing and finer adjustments to see formation change when completing gravel pack wells, improved auxiliary hydraulics for increased flexibility when choosing rig options.
