ZENITH

ZENITH is a flexible, self-driven, remote-controlled robot designed for ultrasonic, eddy current and visual inspections of unpiggable pipelines. Different modules provide inspection of carbon steel and/or austenitic steel pipelines starting from 150 mm ID and with 1.5 diameter elbows. It is a self-driven device capable of inspecting pipelines throughout their entire length, even in a vertical configuration.

Key features

• unique, custom-made lead screw allowing high force drive through the pipeline and elbows
• smoothly passing through demanding shapes of pipelines
• complete volumetric examination
• inspection module containing ultrasonic and eddy current sensors
• P&T camera mounted on the front of the manipulator used for pipeline ID visual inspection
• possibility of use in the dry pipelines due to self-water supply
• IP68 protection level provides inspection of the pipelines filled with water
• position verification
• user friendly manipulator control software
• manual, semi-automatic and/or automatic mode of operation
• linear axial speed up to 50 mm/s
• inspection module rotating speed up to 20˚/s
• possibility of manual manipulator retraction from the pipeline
