VIS2000 Inspection System
The Woehler VIS2000 Inspection System is ideally suited to visual inspections on ventilation / air conditioning ducts, chimneys, chambers and flue gas systems along with search and rescue operations into vertical chambers such as mine shafts and wells. The coloured image, bright lighting and the rotatable lens system provides easy handling and precise feedback of the viewed area.
Because of a pan and tiltable camera head, inspections of difficult to reach areas can be acheived with ease. The results of the inspection can be recorded to a CF- memory card in the instrument either as pictures or videos. Because of the modular design, the system can be upgraded at any time for use in aother applications with options such as with miniature camera heads or different length / diameter camera rods.
Product Description
Remote control at your fingertips
The camera head can be remotely controlled through a joystick mounted on the top right corner of the monitor thereby enabling the user to rotate the camera inside its water resistant housing 360 degrees and to move 180 degrees to the left and right. The illumination is achieved through high intensity white LED's and is mounted to the camera head to ensures that the area being viewed is always correctly illuminated. A 'High Beam' function is also available by depressing the joystick to give additional illumination when required. Images are stored in an integrated Compact Flash card for problem free archiving and image transfer.
