Use of PLS Remote-Controlled Camera Probes and PLS Pipe Crawling Robots to Examine Live Natural Gas Distribution Piping

摘要

PLS International introduces its technology to visually examine the internal condition of in-service low pressure distribution piping. The PLS 3000* Enhanced Pipeline Inspection System has the capability to visually examine 3 to 8" cast iron, steel and plastic in-service piping to distances to 1000 linear feet through a sealed removable access fitting. PLS proprietary Pipe Crawling Robots are capable of examining 8" to 60" diameter piping to 2000 linear feet through sealed accesses from a single excavation. A summary of benefits to distribution companies by employing this technology is detailed. Actual color videotape and videophotographs are presented as documentation.
