Damage Prevention: Pipe Inspection Crawler

The ROVVER 900 is an inspection crawler designed to give users the power to inspect through rough terrain and an adjustable viewing height range. For optimum large diameter (9-60 in.) pipe inspection, the crawler's pendant-controlled lift platform adjusts the camera height from 6 in. to 12 in. The camera can stay centered in the pipe for optimum magnification and undistorted inspection in any viewing direction. This all-wheel drive rugged crawler is high-powered to move easily over debris and around multiple elbows. The remotely operated clutch can release the wheels, which allows the operator the pull the crawler back free-wheeling. Applications include wastewater and storm water lines, oil and steam lines, loose parts retrieval, and service water intake lines. Features include:

•Adjustable platform lifts camera above liquids/debris and provides a view from the center of the pipe
•Lift platform provides inspection height flexibility
•High-powered steerable crawler to move easily over debris and offsets
•Expanded field-of-view for more detailed inspections
•Quick disconnect allows for easy use, low maintenance and time savings
•Hand-held pendant for user-friendly control of lift platform, lighting, focus, direction and speed
•Rack-mount control unit can integrate into operator's existing vehicle
•Waterproof for humid, damp and underwater environments
•Lightweight for easy insertion and removal
•Backward compatible with ROVVER 400 and ROVVER 600 crawlers, cameras and cables
