- 3500W Rated Power Input — The CDC200S is driven by a robust 3500-watt motor that delivers consistent torque and cutting force through the toughest substrates, including reinforced concrete, dense stone, and compacted asphalt, without stalling or overheating under sustained load.
- 200mm Maximum Drilling Capacity — With a 200mm (8-inch) core drilling diameter, this machine handles large-bore applications such as HVAC ducting, drainage pipe penetrations, and structural anchor installations — tasks that smaller drills simply cannot perform.
- 700 RPM No-Load Speed with Precision Control — Operating at a controlled 700 RPM no-load speed on a 50/60Hz, 220-240V supply, the machine maintains steady rotational force that minimises surface cracking and produces clean, accurate cores every time.
- Double Insulation Safety Design — The CDC200S features a double insulation construction that physically separates all live electrical components from the outer casing, eliminating the risk of electric shock even in wet or damp working environments — a critical safety standard for professional job sites.
- Integrated Water Cooling System — Supplied with a dedicated pipe connector and water pipe, the machine supports continuous water feed to the core bit, reducing heat build-up, extending bit life, and suppressing dust during drilling — essential for compliance with site health and safety requirements.
- Auto-Stop Carbon Brush Set Included — The machine ships complete with an auto-stop carbon brush set, hex wrenches, an open-end wrench (8x10mm), pipe connector, water pipe, and a guide book, ensuring the operator has everything needed to begin work immediately without sourcing additional accessories. The unit weighs 25kg and is fitted with a Type G British 3-Pin plug for direct use in UAE and UK standard sockets.
General Purchase & Comparison Queries
What plug type does the CDC200S come with, and is it compatible with UAE sockets?
The Ideal ID CDC200S is supplied with a Type G British 3-Pin plug, which is the standard plug type used across the UAE, UK, and other Gulf markets. It operates on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz supply, making it fully compatible with standard UAE mains power without the need for an adaptor or converter.
How does the CDC200S compare to smaller core drills on the market?
The CDC200S is a heavy-duty professional core drill rated at 3500W with a 200mm maximum drilling capacity — significantly more powerful than entry-level or mid-range core drills typically rated between 1200W and 2200W with capacities under 132mm. Its double insulation, integrated water cooling system, and auto-stop carbon brush set place it firmly in the professional contractor category, designed for sustained, high-volume drilling rather than occasional DIY use.
Does the machine come ready to use, or do I need to purchase accessories separately?
The CDC200S ships as a complete working kit. In the box you will find the machine, a guide book, an auto-stop carbon brush set, two hex wrenches, an open-end wrench (8x10mm), a pipe connector, and a water pipe. No additional accessories are required to begin drilling — simply connect your core bit, attach the water supply, and start work.
Product-Specific and Usage Queries
What is the maximum hole diameter the CDC200S can drill?
The ID CDC200S supports a maximum drilling capacity of 200mm (approximately 8 inches) in diameter. This makes it suitable for large-bore applications including HVAC duct penetrations, drainage pipe installations, cable conduit runs, and structural anchor points in concrete, stone, and asphalt.
Why does the machine operate at only 700 RPM — is that sufficient for concrete drilling?
For core drilling in hard materials like concrete and stone, a lower RPM is actually optimal. The 700 RPM no-load speed of the CDC200S ensures that the diamond core bit maintains consistent contact pressure without generating excessive heat or causing surface fractures. Combined with the water cooling system, this speed delivers clean, precise cores with minimal material damage — a characteristic that distinguishes professional core drills from standard rotary hammer drills.
Is the water cooling system mandatory during operation?
While the machine can physically operate without water, using the water cooling system is strongly recommended for all concrete and stone drilling applications. The water feed serves three critical functions: it cools the core bit to extend its service life, lubricates the cutting surface for smoother penetration, and suppresses silica dust generated during drilling — a health and safety requirement on most professional construction sites. The included pipe connector and water pipe make setup straightforward.
Problem/Solution-Oriented Queries
The machine is not drilling as efficiently as expected — what could be the cause?
Reduced drilling performance is most commonly caused by worn carbon brushes or a blunt core bit. The CDC200S includes an auto-stop carbon brush set — when the brushes reach the end of their service life, the machine will stop automatically to prevent motor damage. Replace the carbon brushes using the included hex wrenches. If performance remains poor after brush replacement, inspect the core bit for wear and ensure the water supply is flowing correctly to maintain bit temperature and cutting efficiency.
What should I do if the machine trips the circuit breaker during use?
The CDC200S draws up to 3500W (approximately 15-16A) at full load. If the machine is tripping a circuit breaker, ensure it is connected to a dedicated 16A or 20A circuit and not sharing the supply with other high-draw equipment. Avoid using long or undersized extension cables, as voltage drop can cause the motor to draw higher current. If the breaker continues to trip under normal load conditions, have the machine inspected by a qualified electrician or contact your Ideal Power Tools dealer.
How do I prevent the drill from wandering or producing an off-centre hole?
Accurate core drilling requires a stable starting point. Mark the centre of the intended hole clearly and use a guide or drill stand where possible to keep the machine perpendicular to the surface. Apply firm, even pressure at the start of the cut to allow the core bit to seat itself before advancing. Ensure the water supply is active from the beginning to reduce friction and heat that can cause the bit to deflect. For vertical or overhead drilling, a purpose-built core drill stand is strongly recommended for both accuracy and operator safety.
