Application · Remote Visual Inspection (RVI)
Remote Visual Inspection (RVI)
Inspect internal, confined and inaccessible areas — without dismantling.
The inspection problem
Turbine internals, engine components, heat exchangers, pipes and tanks contain wear, corrosion and damage that only a visual inspection can characterise — but you can't always take the asset apart to see it.
Why it matters
RVI shortens outages, avoids unnecessary dismantling and documents findings for follow-up.
Which method fits your part?
Every method has a sweet spot and a limitation. Choose based on defect, geometry, throughput and access — not on habit.
Videoscopes
When it fits: Small-diameter access ports, articulating inspection.
Limitations: Working length limited by insertion tube design.
Pan-tilt-zoom cameras
When it fits: Tanks and large enclosed volumes.
Limitations: Requires access opening large enough for the camera head.
Inspection crawlers
When it fits: Pipes and long horizontal or vertical runs.
Limitations: Line-size and geometry constraints.
