Before delving into calculations, it's key to understand how a mud pump operates. Most modern drilling rigs use either triplex or duplex pumps, which use a series of pistons to create pressure. The fluid is drawn into the pump from a storage tank and pumped down the drill string. After reaching the drill bit, the mud carries cuttings back up to the surface through the annulus (the space between the drill string and the wellbore).

5. Improved Penetration Rates DTH rigs deliver higher penetration rates, allowing projects to progress more quickly. The utilization of air-powered hammers means fewer interruptions compared to other drilling techniques, which rely on continual drilling fluid supply.

1. Increased Efficiency By providing a high volume of air, the CFM 185 enhances the efficiency of pneumatic tools, allowing for faster job completion.

3. Acier inoxydable Pour des environnements particulièrement corrosifs, comme dans l’exploration en milieu marin, l'acier inoxydable est souvent la meilleure option. Bien qu'il soit généralement plus coûteux que l'acier au carbone, sa résistance à la corrosion justifie cet investissement.

Understanding Down-the-Hole Hammer Drilling

(3) If the impeller or the inlet and outlet water pipe is blocked, the impeller or pipe can be cleaned, and if the impeller is seriously worn, it should be replaced. If the filler mouth leaks, press the filler. If the conveying height is too high or the tube loss resistance is too large, the conveying height should be reduced or the resistance reduced.
The horizontal slurry pump should be used for regular maintenance. This can effectively avoid the problem of slurry pump blockage, and if you encounter these problems in the process of using slurry pump in the later stage, you can solve them according to the above steps.

The reason:The suction pipe is not filled with water
Blocked suction line or inadequate valve opening
The inlet pipe of the pump, the meter or the stuffing box are serious
