Our Technology
CompactPlus
Intuitive menu navigation and easy operation make CompactPlus the ideal device for quick push camera inspections. The tilting monitor allows various operating positions and reduces the device’s size for transport.
Functional design
Due to high-quality, extra light materials CompactPlus only weighs 11.8 kg. The reel is hooked into the device and can thus be changed over or removed with a flick of the wrist. The entire unit is splash-proof and easy to clean.
Operation
The user-friendly software supersedes a long learning phase or extensive training. It is operated via a rotary knob, which is turned to navigate the menu and pushed to execute commands.
In addition to recording JPEG images and MPEG2 videos it is possible to prepare fully documented projects. Therefor only very basic information has to be entered prior to inspection. Findings can either be marked without any comment or a description can be selected from a customized damage catalog.
Afterwards the project is evaluated with can2D. In accordance with the chosen inspection standard, requested information is entered, findings are described and a complete documentation is created.
Damage catalog editor
With the damage catalog editor, individual damage catalogs can be created quickly and easily. Via USB drive, the catalog is imported on CompactPlus and can then be used for the inscription of videos and images. The editor and the belonging manual can be downloaded from the download center.
Storage on memory stick
All data is stored on a 32 GB memory stick which is included in the scope of supply. Thus a time-consuming export is not necessary.
Daylight viewable display
The CompactPlus is suited for both indoor and outdoor inspections. Its 8 inch, daylight viewable monitor adjusts to the ambient light and displays a clear image even in direct sunlight.
Tiltable monitor
Depending on the operating position, the monitor can be tilted at various angles. The monitor cover protects the display during transport and serves as a sun shield during inspection.
Battery-powered inspection
The built-in battery supplies the device with power for up to three hours and requires only two hours of charging.
Kummert push cameras stand out due to their sleek design without any sharp edges resulting in a high pipe bend mobility, easy cleaning and the cameras not getting hooked when pulled back in the pipe.
Axial camera K-28
The small and light-weight K-28 can be pushed through several 87° bends easily.
K-28 is used in pipes with a diameter of 40mm and up. Three equal-white LEDs guarantee the optimal illumination of the pipe.
The 2.2 mm super wide angle lens is enclosed by epoxide resin and stainless steel. This material composition reduces tension on the panes and makes the K-28 more robust.
Axial camera K-35
K-35 has proven for more than a decade while constantly being enhanced.
K-35 can be used to survey pipes of DN50 and up. In combination with a centering sleeve, the camera‘s range of application is extended to diameters of DN70 and up, and in connection with a centering trolley to diameters of even DN100 and up.
With its flexible end piece the camera can be pushed through bends easily and the ball prevents the camera from getting hooked when pulled back in the pipe.
.
Axial camera K-50
Stainless steel and sapphire glass make K-50 a robust camera.
The self-leveling mechanism provides a constant upright image.
16 high brightness LEDs guarantee an optimal illumination of the pipe. When used with a centering sleeve, the camera is also well suited for inspecting pipe dimensions up to DN200.
Pan and tilt camera K-70
With the pan and tilt camera K-70 the nominal diameter can be detected at any time.
The well-proven pan and tilt camera is suitable for pipes of DN100 and up. It features an infinite pan range, a high tilt range of +/- 115° and 10 white high-power LEDs, which ensure the optimal illumination of the pipe‘s depth. The motor-driven focus and the brightness can be controlled manually. Using the automatic mode, brightness is adapted according to the lighting conditions. The camera is filled with air which creates an internal pressure of 1 bar. The basic device’s software surveys the pressure and displays any discrepancy.
The K-70 features two high-grade laser diodes for exact measurements of the pipe diameter or the width of cracks during inspection. Furthermore, it is equipped with a locating transmitter which allows the inspector to localize the camera at any time.
Branch negotiating camera CamFlex®
CamFlex® is THE camera for the inspection and measurement of complex pipe networks.
The always upright image guarantees the optimal orientation during inspection. The brightness is adapted according to the lighting conditions, thus ensuring an ideal illumination of the pipe. Of course, both brightness and focus can also be controlled manually.
Via joystick the camera can easily be bent from a straight position up to a 90° angle, ensuring that nearly all laterals from DN100 to DN200 can be moved into. Even 90° bends are smoothly navigated by the camera from DN125 and up. At specific positions the integrated sensors capture all data that is needed to create a three-dimensional pipe plan. Using Profi 3 the operator can make a slope measurement, detect the dimension of laterals and measure the angle of bends and branches.
Reels
Reels do not only connect basic device and camera, they also ensure the needed push performance and flexibility. Each type of reel is perfectly adapted to one camera and its according range of pipe diameters.
Recommended camera-reel-combinations:
DN40 and up -> K-28 with fixed reel
DN50 and up -> K-35 with reel H-S
DN70 and up -> K-50 with reel H-M
DN100 and up -> K-70 with reel H-L
DN100 and up -> CamFlex® with reel H-XL
Accurate to a centimeter
When the rod is moved, the reel registers the covered distance and it is displayed on the basic device’s screen. Via the software, the position can be set to zero or any desired value.
Well restraint
The applied reel lock prevents unwanted unreeling of the push rod. To release the lock pin, simply turn it and continue with the inspection, while the freewheel brake controls the rod‘s coasting speed.
Easy assembly
The reel is hooked onto the basic device and connected via a plug. Thus the reel can be removed or changed over without any effort..
Perfect match
Various types of reels are available. The rods differ in length and diameter in order to ensure the best possible push performance and flexibility for all fields of application. Except for the K-28, all cameras and reels are interchangeable.
Robust design
Depending on size and weight of the reel, the side plates are made out of sturdy ABS synthetic material or aluminum. A tubular protects the connected camera during transport and storage.
Transmission
The transmission of data is about to change from analog to digital. The latest Profi 3 and CompactPlus devices are already equipped with the new digital technology. Of course existing devices can be upgraded.
External text inscription
This hardware accessory allows for the CompactPlus to even be used with third-party systems. With the external text inscription, videos and texts are fed into vehicles and devices manufactured by other companies.
Accessories for push cameras
Centering devices K-35
When equipped with the centering sleeve, the K-35 is suited for the inspection of pipes from DN70. The centering trolley even allows for the inspection of dimensions between DN100 and DN150.
Centering device K-50
When used with the centering sleeve, the K-50 camera is also well suited for inspecting pipe dimensions up to DN200.
Centering trolley K-70
The centering trolley is suited for the cameras K-70 in pipe diameters from DN150 to DN300. The 12 wheels ensure a steady push operation.They also elevate and, therefore, protect the camera in the pipe.
HR-70 locating transmitter
Using the locating transmitter and a separately supplied locator, a camera‘s position can easily be tracked during inspection. Positioning data are sent with a frequency of 512 Hz. The locating transmitter is mounted between the camera and the rod and can, therefore, enhance the connected camera’s ability to navigate bends.
can2D
Evaluation
Projects that were created with CompactPlus can be evaluated with can2D. Therefor several inspection standards and export interfaces are available. After a standard was selected and the required information was entered, a list of all marks and the according video is displayed. The findings are described with a standard-compliant list of texts. Of course marks can also be deleted or added.
For a better understanding of the drainage network, 2D models of the single pipes and sewer sections are created automatically.
Post-Editing
With can2D CompactPlus and Profi 3 projects can be revised.
Basic information and findings can be edited, deleted or completed. If subsequent text overlay was selected, changes will not only be implemented in the reports but also the video image. Only during the final export texts are firmly inscribed in the video.
Documentation
The entered information and findings are automatically transferred into well-structured reports. With the help of an editor individual masters and designs can be created.
The contents and scope of documentation are determined with the help of an export wizard. Thus the operator has full control over the result that the customer will receive. Of course a free of charge viewer software is included.
