CUES has developed an advanced model of its lightweight, portable, HD wireless video inspection pole camera, the QZ3 Advanced, which can be operated by one person using any tablet. The new QZ3 Advanced is designed to provide safe viewing in industrial or environmental areas with no man entry. Perform swift inspections and surveys of pipelines, wet wells, manholes, sewer treatment plants, steam generators, tanks, vessels and other areas that are difficult to reach. The QZ3 Advanced can also be used to locate lateral services or to identify blockages at manholes, access ports or other entry points without entering the line or structure. Added features over the basic model include motorized height and tilt, in addition to laser distance measurements, making the QZ3 Advanced another great addition to your inspection equipment. 

Like the basic model, QZ3 Advanced is mounted on a lightweight, telescopic carbon fiber pole that can extend up to 24 feet (an optional 34-foot pole is available). The 1080p camera features a 360:1 zoom with built-in image stabilization, automatic focus, distance-to-defect measurement, and self-contained waterproof MAP (Multiple Aspheric Projection) lighting, including six LED spotlights, working in pairs and focused at different lengths, to provide enhanced, detailed viewing of cracks, breaks, pipe separations, scale and various defect conditions. The QZ3 Advanced also includes two diffused flood LED lights for evenly lit manhole inspections. 

Apart from the standard functions and equipment, many options are provided to enhance the utility of the QZ3 Advanced model. Options include a dual-purpose bipod/tripod support, ruggedized tablet, tablet holders for mounting to the pole or as a wearable harness, a pole-mounted Wi-Fi Repeater to extend range up to 150 feet from the manhole, and a panning accessory designed for use with the SPiDER scanner’s tripod or with truck-mounted deployment systems enabling the QZ3 Advanced to have 360 degree panning, in addition to its standard +/-30-degree tilt for precise positioning, especially useful for pipeline inspections. Contact CUES for additional information and a demonstration.
