Overview
In detail
How it works
The system transmits signals over very long cable runs and is controlled by the same control module used across the Groundview series. The module displays and captures footage to USB, includes a full onscreen keyboard for typed notes, and a microphone for verbal commentary.
Camera options
Four interchangeable video cameras are available, including motorised pan-and-tilt heads in three diameters (45 mm, 55 mm and 65 mm), a twin-camera dual-view head (down and side view), and an optional slim dual-view camera.
Deployment
The hand-winch model is robust, portable and suited to commercial use. It is used for deep downhole and shaft inspections: checking casing integrity, lost equipment recovery, verifying downhole pump operation, locating contaminants, confirming downhole instrumentation installations, and search and rescue in wells, bores, groundwater boreholes, mine shafts and open water.
