Gardner Denver’s GD 250HDD Pump Enters Horizontal Directional Drilling Market
(UC) – Gardner Denver High Pressure Solutions (HPS) has launched its new GD 250HDD pump to serve a range of horizontal directional drilling (HDD) applications.
The GD 250HDD pump expands Gardner Denver’s pump offerings into the wider HDD space for the first time.
The pump features a rod load rating of 50,000 lbs and is designed to run at much slower speeds while matching or exceeding the performance of existing pumps.
The GD 250HDD can produce 300 gpm at 1400 psi while operating under 200 rpm. At this slow run speed, the pump can deliver the same output, flow, and pressure with less violent actions, wear and friction. By delivering fewer strokes, consumable life is extended.
The GD 250 HDD packs a huge amount of power in a very small dimensional envelope, which makes it ideal for the HDD market,” said Ryan Huseman, lead engineer on the project.
Additionally, all the of the bearings on the GD 250HDD feature a pressurized lubrication system.
Weighing less than 4,000 lbs, the GD 250HDD has a maximum flowrate of 460 gpm and the ability to reach pressures up to 3,000 psi. This triplex pump offers a 5 in. stroke, 50,000 lbs rod load rating and 250 breaking horsepower (BHP).
