Options
- We also offer (at additional cost) an optional cable
extension of 275 feet (84 meters) with storage reel, a splice clamp, and connectors. This
provides a maximum operating capability of 1,100 feet (335 meters)
- Motor Drive Option is available (at additional cost) to
power assist the winch. It comes with a speed & direction control unit and its own
power supply. The motor drive provides for smoother videos while lowering the camera. It
will also raise the camera, if there is less than 20 lbs of weight down the hole.
- A Motorized Side-Looking Mirror Option is available (at
additional cost) to provide a 360 degree side view of the bore walls in as small as 1
1/2" bores. The elliptical mirror rotates in 30 degree steps with a 2 second
stop at each step which provides a rotation free view at each step. The attachment
can be positioned close to the camera lens for a large side-view window in the video frame
or it can be slid away from the lens for a small side-view window allowing you to see
farther down the bore. The attachment is equipped with a dual-bulb light
source. A 24 white LED Ring-Light is also provided for use in 3" to 12"
bores. This light provides a more direct light source for looking into screens, voids
and fractures. The 9 LED Ring-Light that comes with system can also be used with the
Motorized Side-Looking Mirror attachment. A 'Y' power adapter is supplied so that both the
Motorized Side-Looking Mirror and a ring-light can be powered at the same time.
(Motorized Side-Looking Mirror attachment can be used on all previous micro cameras)
- A Dual Dive Light Option is available (at additional
cost) for use in large diameter bores. The attachment uses 2 dive lights that
contain their own battery power source and can be used in conjunction with other light
attachments. The lights are rated at 2000 foot pressure and will operate for
approximately 4 hours on a fresh set of 4 AA alkaline batteries. The attachment
clamp holds both dive light and allows them to be positioned anywhere along the body of
the camera.
