Create crisp, detailed HD video inspections with audio comments, text descriptions, footage, date, and timestamps to submit to your customers without worry. Putting in a full days’ worth of work is easy with the four-hour battery life and charging on-the-go with the provided AC and DC charging leads.
The vCamMX-2+ all-in-one versatile and durable mini-inspection camera system can handle a range of inspections, including residential plumbing, indoor-commercial lines and lateral lines from 40mm to 100mm in diameter. The control module is housed in a rugged ABS injection-molded housing and mounted to a stainless-steel frame. It provides the latest high-definition imaging and recording technology.
The stainless-steel Type-MX reel with lightweight carbon fiber pushrod drum can be used upright or horizontally. The reel’s pushrod is traceable using a utility locater transmitter. The three-frequency locatable sonde allows for precise location and accurate depth measurements.
The vCamMX-2+ offers two user-changeable high-definition camera heads. The free vCam Mobile Controller app allows you to connect to a tablet or phone to record and instantly share files. The system is available in two lengths: 30m and 45m.
The vCamDrain features a Wi-Fi reel controlled by the vCam Mobile Controller (VMC) app. When connected to the reel by Wi-Fi, the VMC app controls the camera lights, distance counter reset, sonde and text writer. The app shows the reel’s Wi-Fi, battery, and charging status. Recording can be done directly to the app and instantly shared or copied to the reel’s USB port.
The stainless-steel 0.70″ (18mm) diameter HD camera with a sapphire lens and ultra-bright LEDs produces a crisp, clear image of the pipe’s interior. The 9mm custom pushrod provides a delicate balance of flexibility and pushing strength usable in lines from 1.5 to 3 inches. The drag-resistant nylon jacketing allows it to navigate multiple bends, tight turns, p-traps, and most toilet traps. Both camera head and spring assembly with built-in 512Hz frequency sonde are field serviceable.
The reel is powered by internal Li-ion batteries, which provide consistent, clean, long-life power. A six-hour charge will provide 12 hours of power with intermittent sonde use.
The vLoc3-Cam is the easiest to use sonde locator on the market today. The omni-directional antenna array allows for approaching the sonde from any position. The directional arrows will guide the user first to the front or rear locate point and then directly to the sondes position.
The vLoc3-Cam includes multiple sonde frequencies making it compatible with the major push cameras and crawler cameras on the market. The Pushrod Trace mode shows a second display geared for tracing the path of the pushrod deployed in the pipe or tracing pipes with an optional portable transmitter.
The vLoc3-Cam comes with two Passive locate modes of Power and Radio which will detect the presence of live power lines, CATV, telephone and some metallic pipes which radiate 50/60 Hz from nearby or overhead power lines. For active locating, with the use of a portable transmitter, the vLoc3-Cam comes with an 83.1kHz frequency for tracing the pushrod. This frequency is also ideal for water and gas utilities which generally are larger pipes with bell housings and gaskets as well as locating ungrounded small diameter drop wires and inducing signals through the soil, onto services when direct connecting is not an option.
The vLoc3-Pro utility locator introduces new innovative tools for locating buried utilities assuring damage prevention whilst gathering information for analysis.
With two sets of screened 3D antennas signal distortion is easily detected and displayed on the bright full colour display. Along with classic locate screens the vLoc3 series locators offer new locate perspective screens of Vector Locate for fully automatic non-walk over locating, Transverse Graph showing both peak and null simultaneously providing immediate measurement of signal distortion, Plan View showing the relative orientation of the cable at any angle, and a new graphical Sonde screen with guidance arrows leading to the sonde location even when it is vertical.
The highly user configurable vLoc3 series contains eight passive locate modes, fault-find mode, SD (showing direction of outgoing current), and a range of configurable frequencies from 98Hz to 200 kHz. Audio and mechanical vibration alerts can also be configured by the user providing warnings for shallow depth, overload, overhead cables, and excessive swinging. Plug-in-play options for the receiver include optional Bluetooth module useable with external GPS devices and EMS foot to locate buried markers.
The vScan utility avoidance tool has been designed to make buried utility detection a simple and cost-effective process. You don’t need to be an electronics expert to get the most out of the vScan‘s features. Main features and operational controls are in keeping with industry standards so minimal training is required.
Together with the dual frequency transmitter, data logging, optional metal manhole cover detector, GPS, and Bluetooth, the vScan is available in various models to suit all applications.
The vScan locator kits are shipped with a spacious canvas carry bag which fits the receiver, transmitter, leads and any optional accessories.
