D25KS
The D25KS is equipped as a down-the-hole (DTH)
hammer drill, including a high pressure air compressor, air
line lubricator and fine feed control. It is commonly used
in large quarries and in gold and other metals mines. It is
the drill of choice among many contractors.

Drilled depths up to 27 m (88')

Pulldown 124 kN (27 800 lbf)

Bit load up to 143 kN (32 000 lbf)

D245S
The D245S comes standard as a rotary drill, with a low
pressure compressor and stronger hydraulics for pulldown.
Its most popular application is coal mining.With optional high
pressure air, the D245S is a versatile combination machine
to rotary drill in overburden and hammer drill in aggregate
or ore.
127 to 203 mm (5" to 8") diameter holes

Drilled depths up to 45 m (148')

Top performance
from compact drills
Rigid lattice style masts and heavy duty pulldown chains are part of
the package that make Sandviks D25KS and D245S blasthole drills top
performers in a class of their own. The angle drilling option is one of
the many features that drive this performance in an impressive range of
applications. The mast can be set in 5 increments, from 0 to 30 for
drilling angle holes.

PRODUCTIVE OPERATORS ENVIRONMENT

Excellent visibility of the drilling operation
Higher productivity with quicker holespotting
Fast set-up for drilling
Comfortable environment with shock mounted cab
Roller sunshades to reduce glare
Thermal insulation and noise reduction to 85 dBA
Drill controls arranged logically on the console
Ease of operation
Intuitive fast learning
Air conditioning/heating/pressurizing unit for
operator comfort
FOPS approved in compliance with mining safety requirements
Extended cab provides ample work space for a trainer

These drills have solid engine and compressor options that provide the
right combination for each drilling condition. The engine and compressor range allows for optimized hole flushing and the most power for
down-the-hole (DTH) drilling. Operating at lower speeds and load
factors assures longevity. Additional factors like load sensing and fan
speed controls add performance.

EFFICIENT HYDRAULICS
Closed loop system for rotation, feed, track and fan circuits
Lowers operating costs
Reduces power consumption
Large 511 L (135 gal) pressurized hydraulic oil reservoir
Reduces the number of oil cycles
Lowers oil temperatures
Extends service intervals
3 m (3 micron) filtration
Cleaner system
Extends component life
Lowers maintenance costs

The effective handling of drill pipe

contributes to shorter cycle times
and getting more holes drilled .

Sandvik hydraulic systems manage

power operation with few moving parts,
produce abundant power, work under
extreme operating conditions, and are
self lubricating.

Increasing the drillers comfort and

functionality, supports a safer environment and contributes to greater
work output.

Delivers top slewing power for faster holespotting
Fixed axle under the mast pedestal
Equalizer axle at the other end of the tracks
Effective side to side movement
Reduces stress on the frame for longer frame life
More fatigue resistance and increased mobility

OPTIMIZED POWER DELIVERY

Diesel engines, matched for high or low pressure
compressors and required volume
Long life and lower fuel consumption
Tier III C15, C18 or QSX15 engines rated 354 - 470 kW (475 - 630 hp)
Most effectively operating at 1800 rpm
Provide optimum power at lower cycling times
and better efficiency
Full range of compressors producing
25,5 - 34,7 m/min (900 - 1225 SCFM) @
6,9 or 24,1 Bar (100 - 350 psi)
The compressor is mounted directly to the flywheel housing

in line with the engine for efficient power transfer
54C (130 F) ambient temperature cooling system
Direct drive fan
Fan is hydraulically delayed during start-up of engine
for maximum torque
An optional cold weather package lowers the temperature range
for frigid conditions up to arctic weather

Moving and set-up are important parts of the drilling cycle.

To overcome the rugged terrain in a mining environment,
Sandvik drills deliver top performance from strong, structurally sound undercarriages and heavy duty frames.

Even the best systems fail from time to time.

Operators need a well designed work deck
area. These drills offer the quick access that
gets you up and running.

Great versatility
for top production
Compact drills deliver
top performance
BUILT TO LAST!

EFFECTIVE PIPE HANDLING

The pipe size for the D25KS and D245S is 9,14 m (30) long pipes
in diameters 89 -140 mm, (3-1/2 to 5-1/2) in alternative loaders
As an option, both an inside and outside loader are available
Flexible hole sizes
Extended depth capacity
Ability to carry two pipe sizes for special applications.
Pipe loading is controlled from the operators cab

Holding wrench and optional hydraulic auto tong wrench
and pipe thread greaser:
Help to break loose tight pipe joints

Hydraulic loader swing and indexing:
Simplicity of very few moving parts in the loader
Higher productivity
Lower maintenance and drill pipe cost
