A quick search of recent <br /> industry news will unveil several instances of manhole smokers,fires,gas-related <br /> explosions, shocks and even electrocutions. Over time, material defects and <br /> degradation,chemicals,road salts,and other hazards can cause electrical shorts <br /> or expose live wires in underground manholes,vaults and electrical panels. This <br /> condition can have deadly consequences. <br /> Everest VIT has been working with several large electrical T&D customers across <br /> the country who perform visual and remote visual inspection of these manholes <br /> and underground vaults in order to locate potential hazards.Our Ca-Zoom®PTZ6.0 <br /> system is being used to perform safety checks before manned entries—at times <br /> providing sufficient information to prevent human entry altogether. <br /> In addition,Everest VIT has sent certified remote visual inspection technicians from <br /> t our Inspection Service Department to customers'sites to perform inspections of the <br /> " manholes and vaults using this equipment. <br /> The Ca-Zoom PTZ6.0 system may be customized to include a wide-angle lens for <br /> viewing large areas,a man-way tripod to support and stabilize the camera, non- <br /> conductive poles to handle and deliver the camera into the man-way and camera- <br /> mounted lasers for measurement and cable tracking. <br /> f; The low-light sensitivity,on-board lighting,300:1 zoom and digital image storage <br /> platform make the Ca-Zoom PTZ6.0 system an ideal tool for this unique application. <br /> The Ca-Zoom system helps our T&D customers become more productive while <br /> meeting one of Everest VIT's corporate goals of using Remote Visual Inspection <br /> technology to help make the world a little safer. <br /> i <br /> y <br /> l Ca-Zoom PTZ6.0 camera deployment and inspection of underground <br /> electrical vault <br /> Underground electrical vault Electrical transmission cable Spot laser for cable tracking <br /> For more information or to schedule a product demo,visit www.everestvit.com/newsletter/index.html or call 973-448-0077 5 <br />
