The VUMAN E3 series system by viZaar Industrial Imaging AG
Designed from the very beginning to meet or exceed any long-range inspection requirement with maximum performance and minimum disruption, it is the ultimate long range inspection system
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS:
Remote Focus Technology A unique and patented design that incorporates an electrically driven, remote controlled, variable focus lens into the tip of the probe. This enables focusing on any defect possible (0.02mm to infinity) and completely avoids the need to withdraw the probe to change the lens in order to inspect a different area. Over the course of a full inspection, this can save significant time and reduces the overall complexity of the inspection.
Interchangeable Probes A unique feature allowing quick and simple exchange of probes with the base unit if your inspection application requires the use of different diameters or lengths of probes. This avoids the need to carry multiple base units, ensures modular repair capability and allows for an overall cost effective solution. In the event of use within a contaminated environment (i.e. chemical, nuclear, food, pharmaceutical), it also allows for the probe to be removed or disposed of without having to clean or dispose of the entire system.
VUSCREEN Control Unit A fully integrated, ergonomic and robust control unit for the VUMAN system. It can be stowed on the system within the housing, mounted on the integrated telescopic pole or used as a portable device (with neck strap). Featuring a resistive, true colour, 10.4” touchscreen TFT with LED backlight and native resolution of 1024 x 768, viewing and use of the system is simple, straightforward and suitable for long duration inspection. Next to the screen are mounted the remote focus and illumination sliding adjustment bars (which are infinitely adjustable), the integrated joystick for X-WAY articulation control and the integrated control buttons for key functions. The entire unit is contained within a carbon fibre housing with elastomer bumpers to ensure durability and is PPE/Glove compatible, thereby ensuring ease of use even in harsh environments.
X-WAY Articulation The proprietary pneumatic X-WAY articulation system allows for full 4 axis (up/down/left/right) articulation of all VUMAN X-WAY probes. The system is controlled by the joystick on the VUSCREEN control unit and is powered by an integrated, computer controlled micro-compressor, so there is no need for external air sources or external gas canisters. The pneumatic connection to the probe is integrated into the connection block and as the system is pneumatic, X-WAY articulation can be applied to probes of up to 30m in length and can be used with the probe ‘on-drum’. This system also incorporates two different articulation modes, ABSOLUTE (probe returns to home position if joystick is released) and RELATIVE (probe stays in last commanded position when joystick is released) ensuring ease of use for every application regardless of duration and safe extraction.
VUMAN V3 Probes The VUMAN V3 series of probes have been designed in close consultation with key industries and their associated applications in mind. The range has been tailored to provide a universal solution to both current and future applications. The probes are sophisticated, class leading, interchangeable products with unique features and benefits: · Remote focus system · Available in 6.4/8.4/12.7mm diameters · Polyurethane sheath with stainless steel braiding to ensure maximum protection and torsional rigidity whilst retaining full flexibility · Customised, probe specific centering units and pushrods for pipe inspections · Hybrid light technology (LED / fibre optic combination) for maximum performance and minimum diameter · Choice of X-WAY or NON X-WAY probes (NON X-WAY feature self-centering tips for ease of insertion)
To summarise, the VUMAN E3 system is the best in its class, and if you have either an ordinary or extra-ordinary inspection requirement, the VUMAN E3 is the product that you need to do your job quickly, easily and efficiently. The VUMAN E3+ is now held on UK demonstration stock and is available for immediate on-site demonstrations and evaluations.
