2025 Vermeer® Pipeline Directional Drills D220x500 S3
D220x500 S3 highlights- Versatile enough for large-diameter water and utility installs in urban areas as well as challenging pipeline work
- Reduce number of tool joint connections
- Access up and down the rack with full-length catwalk
- Powerful performance for the job
- AutoTension feature available
Features may include:
Versatility to handle variety of jobs- Operators can adjust the drill from 30,000 ft-lb to 52,600 ft-lb (40,675 Nm to 71,316.1 Nm) of rotary torque, with max torque being highly advantageous when turning large-diameter reamers and hole openers for installing large-diameter product.
- Full-length catwalk provides access to the entire length of the rack for ease of wire lining and assisting in the rod loading process.
- Rod stager option helps improve overall efficiency by staging rods in advance and cycling rods with a touch of a button.
- Choose an excavator-style cab (cab on) for fast, compact setup and view of open-top vises, the rack and the rod loader or a stand-alone operator’s station that helps provide optimal operator comfort and room for the steering hand.
- Both the cab and operator’s station include the same dual multifunction joystick controls found on all Vermeer S3 horizontal directional drills.
- The high carriage speed aids in fast rod cycle time when adding or removing drill rods and helps cut down on cycle time when tripping out of the borehole.
- Enhanced water course system features four 1.5-in (3.8-cm) mudlines and a 3-in (7.6-cm) head shaft, allowing high volumes of fluid to be pumped downhole.
- VermeerOne™ Platform isn’t just a tool or platform. It’s an experience — one designed to simplify equipment management, empower users with real-time data to make smarter decisions, and help maximize productivity and profitability.
