Construction
The DS-2000 is a winch designed for maximum borehole depths of
2000m utilising 3/16” cable. It is designed with a small footprint made
in a strong steel box construction capable of handling the toughest
conditions and one that will last for many years. The drum is cast
aluminium in construction to provide strength whilst reducing weight. A
powder coated finish protects the winch from the elements and looks
fantastic on any logging project.
Cable Spooling
The DS-2000 incorporates an accurate cable laying system using a very
effective helical cable guide to automatically lay the cable uniformly and
precisely on the drum. Although it is unlikely to be required, a convenient
and simple-to-use manual adjuster is provided. The life of the helical shaft
is increased through the provision of dust gaiters that provide protection
from dust and dirt.
Slip Rings
Only the best Mercury Slip Rings are utilised on the DS-2000, providing
reliable, uninterrupted communication between downhole instruments
and surface acquisition systems. A two way Mercotac slip ring is used for
single conductor cable while a 6 way Moog slip ring is used with four
conductor cable.
Motor and Controller
The winch is powered by an extremely reliable Baldor DC permanent
magnetic electric motor. It is an enclosed fan cooled motor with 20:1
speed range and positive torque. It has short circuit, transient and
overload protection and a rugged IP65 control enclosure. A 240V
variable speed controller ensures smooth control from 1m per minute
up to a maximum mid drum speed of 75m per minute.
Depth and Rate Measuring
Depth is measured by an optical depth encoder with backup provided by
a mechanical depth measurement device - essential on any logging project.
The measuring wheel is machine grooved and provides continuous cable
contact using a spring loaded pressure wheel combination.
Brake
An operator controlled Disk brake provides a positive park or stationary
position.
Warranty
Every winch is covered by a 5 year warranty on the frame and one year
on all other components.
