Lateral Launch Sewer Inspections
Lateral launch sewer inspections are utilized when a typical visual inspection of a pipe or water system isn’t feasible. Using a specialized robotic crawler equipped with a video camera, we can perform cross bore investigations – searching for dangerous and unintended intersections of utility lines - as well as map the interior condition of hard-to-reach pipes. A pipe is inspected from the mainline to the lateral during this process, meaning you receive a comprehensive analysis of the overall health of your system.
Equipment
The front of each Patriot Locating & Inspections, LLC camera trucks is a climate controlled environment packed with the latest technology in lateral launch sewer camera world. The build-out by RapidView IBAK North America contains a multi screen computer interface and software that allows the operator to control the lateral launch camera system designed by IBAK.
The robot's various cameras are viewable on multiple monitors and movements are controlled by two joysticks. The operator can switch between the cameras to get a better view, especially when shooting a lateral from the mainline. Many things can go wrong, like getting the robot stuck in a lateral, or running the robot off of a ledge. Patriot's Camera Operators are highly skilled at manipulating the robot's movements to achieve the desired results.
