Description
The IPLEX G Lite-W videoscope, the wind version of the IPLEX G Lite has features designed specifically for wind tower inspection, such as:
• A sealed, oil-clearing tip adaptor to see more clearly in oily environments
• Optics designed for wind tower gearbox inspections
• 4 mm scope to fit into tight spaces
• Bright LED guide tube (optional)
• Oil-resistant insertion tube coating, making it easy to clean
Designed to meet IP65 standards and built to pass U.S. Department of Defense testing (MIL-STD), the IPLEX G Lite-W videoscope is up to the challenge of working at height in a wind tower nacelle for maximum uptime. The insertion tube’s durable articulation mechanism helps protect the scope when inserting it in tight spaces where it can be easily damaged.
The IPLEX G Lite-W videoscope has specially designed optics that balance the need to view areas of the wind turbine up close, such as bearings and gear teeth, as well as look for defects in large spaces while being small enough to fit into the space between the turbine’s bearings to look for damage.
The optional LED guide tube is engineered for wind turbine inspection. Its ample illumination enables you to spot defects faster in large, dark spaces—like a gearbox—reducing the time needed to obtain good images. When you have tomaneuver, the semiflexible guide tube makes it easier for you to position it where you want to capture the images you need. Using just one hand, you can easily control the 4 mm scope and maneuver it to view difficult-to-reach areas of the gearbox.
Weighing only 1.16 kg (2.56 lb), the compact IPLEX G Lite-W videoscope is easy to transport to challenging locations, like the top of the nacelle.
