New RX95 Video Inspection Crawler Travels into 4” Sewer Laterals, Relined 6” Mains and Industrial Process Piping

Designed to inspect pipes and passageways as narrow as 4", the new RX95 from
Envirosight is the latest addition to the industry-leading ROVVER X line of video
inspection crawlers. As with all ROVVER X crawlers, it is based on a compact,
maneuverable footprint designed to overcome obstacles, and it incorporates a
digital control architecture that makes it infinitely upgradeable. The RX95 works
with any ROVVER X camera, controller and reel, so adding small-diameter
capability is only an incremental investment for existing ROVVER X customers.
"For the environmental sector, narrow-diameter equipment is key to inspecting
6" relined pipe and 4" long-run laterals," says Richard Lindner, President of
Envirosight. "In these applications, the RX95 offers affordable add-on capability
for any ROVVER X operator."
"For industrial customers, narrow-diameter pipes are even more commonplace,"
he continues. "Because the RX95 is available with an ultra-portable manual reel
and handheld control pendant, it can be deployed even in the most difficult areas
—like scaffolding, lifts and catwalks."
As with all ROVVER X crawlers, the RX95 offers steerable six-wheel drive for
maximum maneuverability; onboard sensors for tilt, roll, pressure and
temperature; and a built-in selectable 412/640Hz sonde for easy locating.
Interchangeable wheels and other modular accessories adapt it to a wide range
of pipe conditions, and pairing it with the ROVVER X long-range cable reel yields
an impressive travel range of 1640’. In addition to working with the standard
ROVVER X pan/tilt/zoom camera, the RX95 is also available with low-profile
pan/tilt and axial cameras (either is required for 4" applications), along with
ultra-portable manual reels in 330’ and 660’ lengths.
About ROVVER X
ROVVER X is the one pipe inspection system that lets an operator do everything—
control inspections, view and record digital video, log observations, generate
reports, and link directly to asset-management software. All this capability is
packed into a simple three-piece layout, with no CCU or other components to
clutter the workspace.
Though remarkably self-contained, ROVVER X is built on an expandable digital
backbone. Not only can an operator add side-scanning and laser profiling, he or
she can view data from onboard sensors, automate tasks with macros, and
measure defects onscreen. And future capabilities are limitless—ROVVER X’s
firmware updates automatically to the latest features, and its architecture is
ready for any accessory—even ones that don’t yet exist.
Advanced technology aside, ROVVER X is built for the rigors of sewer inspection.
Twelve wheel options—plus camera lift, carriage and illumination accessories—
mean ROVVER X transforms in seconds to inspect any size line. Its six-wheel
drive with proportional steering navigates past obstacles, and overlapping
wheels climb offsets better than tracks. Powerful motors and a geared drive train
maximize range and pivot capability, even with carriage and 10" knobby tires
installed.
Ultimately, however, reliability and productivity have made ROVVER the number
one crawler brand worldwide. ROVVER X continues this tradition with
unsurpassed video resolution and 50% more illumination, leaving no detail
hidden. Its powerful reel monitors cable tension optically to prevent slack and
minimize resistance, allowing one-man operation. And self-diagnostic
capabilities, plus access to operating history, only enhance the uptime of the one
crawler that already leads the industry.
