ECM-370 Air/Hydraulic Drill

The Ingersoll-Rand ECM-370 is the onlydrill on the market that combines thedurability of an air crawler with the benefits ofa self-contained hydraulic crawler in onepackage. This self-contained drill is extremelyproductive, easy to operate, simple tomaintain, and significantly more economicalto operate than other drills.

Self-ContainedEfficiencyThe self-contained ECM-370 drilling package willsave time during setupby eliminating the needto haul a separate air

compressor to each drill site. Shipping andtransportation costs will also be significantlylower.

SimpleOperationDue to thecombination ofthe pneumaticpercussioncycle and thepowerfulhydraulic feed motor, getting a drill string freefrom broken ground is easy. Uncouplingaccessories is also easier with the pneumaticdrifter, and operators can be easily and quicklytrained. The ECM-370 will spend more timedrilling holes and less time trying to free stucksteels! The ECM-370 is a smart choice.

ProductivityThe ECM-370combines the worldfamous VL140pneumatic drifterwith an Ingersoll-Rand air compressor foroutstanding performance. The ECM-370maximizes the air compressor by using allavailable air for percussion and hole cleaningand uses the efficiency of hydraulics for feedand rotation drilling functions. This methoddramatically increases the penetration rateand will save precious fuel and money.

Ease of MaintenanceThe simple,reliable, and lowmaintenancedesign of the airdrifter is preferredby drill ownersthroughout theworld. With theVL140/ HR the

ECM-370 drilling package requires minimumdrifter maintenance.

AvailabilityThe impressive reliability of Ingersoll-Randpneumatic drifters and their ability to take abuseis a known fact. The Ingersoll-Rand ECM-370combines the reliability of a pneumatic drifterwith the proven power and efficiency of a welldesigned, uncomplicated hydraulic system.The high availability of this combination willresult in higher production and profit.

Powerful GradeabilityThe ECM-370 is designed to provide theversatility necessary for tough pioneeringapplications as well as for production work.Theimpressive tractive effort is a direct function ofthe high torque of the final drives, the highcapacity hydraulic system, and the low centerof gravity design. The incredible 18 inch (457mm) ground clearance combined with 5 feet(1524 mm) of boom extension, and 4 feet(1214 mm) of guide extension, tames eventhe roughest terrain.

Unmatched EconomyBy combining fuel efficiency, high productivity,availability and easy operation, the ECM-370enables you to drill more holes in less time.The ECM-370 eliminates the need to own andmaintain both a production drill and apioneering drill. The Ingersoll-Rand ECM-370does it all at a lower cost per foot of hole.

Single Pass Option (ECM-370SP)*Ingersoll-Rand has developed the ECM-370SPfor single pass or PIPELINE APPLICATIONS,where it is beneficial for the operator to controlthe drill from the side. The drill guide is indexed180 degrees for superior visibility and trenchcoverage. All drill controls are mounted on theside of the ECM-370SP. With this configuration,the operator is out of the trench and has boom

movement, tram anddrill controls at hisfingertips. Operatorfatigue is reduced andproduction increases.There is no need toclimb in and out of thetrench between setups.
