WaterBox™ – A Pump Designed for Water Hammer Drills
Compact ⬧ Portable ⬧ Diesel-Powered / or Electric Powered ⬧ Variable Flow ⬧ 3,000 PSI
Not all pumps are created equal
Water hammer drills need to run at a constant pressure for optimal operation. Achieving constant pressure means adjusting the flow as the hammer wears, the hole gets deeper and as drilling conditions change. The problem is that the flow of typical diesel water pumps can only be adjusted in a limited way. WaterBox™ has infinite adjustment—allowing you to keep the hammer running at its maximum potential.
Precise, adjustable flow rate
The Borterra WaterBox diesel water pump is “best-in-class” water pump technology. Thanks to its hydrostatic drive and Borterra’s proprietary digital management system, WaterBox allows the driller to dial in the exact flow and pressure they need and then keep on adjusting as the hammer wears in and the hole gets deeper.
A radio-remote colour display shows precise pressure and flow rates at all times. As conditions change, operators can make precise adjustments to maintain maximal penetration rate while ensuring repeatability and precision for each hole drilled.
Optimal power & economy
WaterBox is self-contained in a robust 10′ x 8′ x 8′ box. It is powered with a top-of-the-line EPA Tier 4F (Stage 5) diesel engine / (optional electric motor available) with hydrostatic drive. Our proprietary digital control system manages the pump speed and engine throttle to maximize efficiency and fuel economy without sacrificing available power.
