AIT is pleased to introduce the Ritec axial push rod camera system to our
industrial customers for a variety of plant inspections.

High resolution and well engineered push rod camera designed for inspecting
pipes and tubes that are 1.5 to 12 inches (40mm to 300mm) diameter. This is
the best choice for serious industrial inspections where resolution and durability
are a must. 100 or 165 Ft push rod reels with several options are available.
Applications for the new Ritec Axial push camera include:

Inspection of boiler tubes: Boiler tubes need to be checked for scale, deposits,
cracking and other defects. The most reliable method is an industrial pipe
inspection camera.

Inspection of floor drains: Food plants need to check floor drains for cleanliness
and blockages or food borne bacteria can grow. Pipe cameras or drain cameras
allow for quick inspection.

Process lines need to be inspected for condition. A pipe camera allow fast
inspection of long industrial line to check for pitting, corrosion, erosion,
cracking, scaling and other problems.

Cleaning Validation can be performed at pharmaceutical and chemical plants
with a pipe inspection camera. Process lines at these plants need to be cleaned of
previous product ingredients or the next batch may be contaminated. A push
camera is used to ensure no residue is remaining after cleaning.

Steam feed lines need to be inspected for interior condition. A pipe camera can
see scale build up, pitting, corrosion, cracking and other defects.

Foreign Material Exclusion (FME) programs benefit from the capability of a pipe
camera to locate foreign objects, loose parts and other debris in industrial
piping. Once the pipe camera locates the foreign material it can then be used to
direct retrieval tools to remove the objects without tear down
