August 2007
Drilex Environmental has purchased and taken delivery of a new Geoprobe
6620DT. The new Geoprobe has added
features including an overhead mast with a hydraulic winch, the GA3000
Auger Head attachment, and the DH100 Drop Hammer. These new features allow the Geoprobe to
become more versatile offering clients more for their projects. The Geoprobe’s added overhead mast
with the hydraulic winch is designed to relieve operator fatigue and cut
down on task time. It also allowed
for the addition of the GA3000 Auger and DH100 Drop Hammer. The GA 3000 Auger Head attachment
actually spins augers for well installation and the DH100 provides the
client with Standard Penetration Tests.
