The ROVVER X-SAT lateral launch system from Envirosight allows a remote operator to perform pan/tilt video inspection 150 feet into a 4-inch sewer lateral from an adjoining sewer mainline. The system allows municipalities to confirm the presence of blockages in laterals and helps utility contractors locate gas line cross bores. Its steerable six-wheel-drive crawler helps it maneuver to troublesome launch points as far as 500 feet down mainlines 6 inches and larger. The system’s auto-leveling color camera with shadowless illumination pans 360 degrees and tilts 90 degrees to capture both sidewall detail and distant targets, and is equipped with a sonde to facilitate locating. Additional cameras mounted to the crawler assist with navigation and lateral deployment. 866/936-8476; www.envirosight.com.
