Advanced / Specialist Non-Destructive Testing
Remote Visual Inspection (RVI)
Remote Visual Inspection or Testing, also known as Video Scope Inspection, uses a variety of probes, camera systems, scopes, robotics, and recording devices.
IRS can perform internal tank inspections using remote visual cameras and robotics. Our imaging technology is a Pan, Tilt and Zoom camera with a standard 110-foot cable lengths allows the camera head to be submerged to depths of 100-feet. It has 360-degrees of Pan and 110-degrees of Tilt movement. The camera module boasts a 40:1 variable zoom.
Main benefits of RVI:
- Significant time/cost savings from negating the need for expensive plant ‘strip-downs’
- Significant time/cost savings in future targeted monitoring programs
- Time/cost savings from reduced breakdown situations through the identification and evaluation of internal condition by planned RVI schedules
- Extend plant life through improved knowledge of erosion/corrosion/deposit profiles
- Satisfy the requirements of plant insurance companies.
