Hole digger for biogas
Hydraulic hole digger TRH 1500 BG for biogas purposes. The TRH 1550 BG is characterised by its high power of 64500 n/m, allowing drilling in challenging soils and at extreme depths (up to 30 meters).
The hydraulic auger TRH 1550 is suitable for large tonnage excavators ranging from 25 to 50 tonnes. This excavator-mounted auger has the particularity of being used in drilling wells designed to capture and treat biogas. This gas, emitted from the degradation of household waste in landfill sites and construction and demolition waste facilities, is then reused for energy and electricity production, and even fertilizer.
This high-power drilling auger is equipped with a compact engine block that allows it to penetrate up to the coupling hitch point for drilling up to -24 meters.
Designed for very challenging soils, it can accommodate reinforced augers or cleaning augers up to 1500 mm in diameter.
Robust, the spiral thickness is the same throughout its length.
Made of anti-abrasive steel, the auger facilitates material evacuation. Spiral extensions allow drilling up to 35 meters deep.
Mounted on a suspension cardan, the biogas excavator-mounted drill is pendular, allowing for a well-vertical drilling even on slopes.
Robust and powerful, the TRH 1550 auger ensures high reliability and quality work!
