SKF Endoscopes – fast and easy inspection with video function
September 2018Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
The SKF Endoscope TKES 10 series are first line inspection tools that can be used for internal inspection of machinery. They help minimise the need to disassemble machinery for inspection, saving time and money. The compact display unit, with backlit screen, allows images and video to be saved and recalled, or to be downloaded and shared with others.
Three different models cater to most needs and are equipped with powerful variable LED lighting allowing inspections in dark locations. A high resolution miniature camera with digital zoom gives a clear and sharp full screen image. They are available with a 1 metre insertion tube in three different variants: flexible, semi-rigid or with an articulating tip. The small tip diameter and wide field of view allows easy access to most applications.
Units are supplied with a side view adapter allowing inspection of applications such as pipe walls, while powerful magnets and a tripod mount on the back of the display unit allow hands free use.
Up to 50 000 photos or 120 minutes of video can be stored on the SD memory card supplied with longer flexible and semi-rigid insertion tubes are available as accessories. All units are supplied in a sturdy carrying case complete with necessary cables, universal mains charger and a cleaning kit.
