The probe's path
Check the inside of hard-to-reach components without a major teardown, in an environment with high temperatures during the job.
Temperature
Because of the high temperatures present, the videoscope's temperature monitoring was used: it shows a real-time reading and warns at 60, 80 and 100 °C, so conditions could be watched throughout the inspection.

Technical notes
What is remote visual inspection (RVI)?
It means checking the inside of equipment with a camera at the tip of a probe, a videoscope or borescope, that goes in through existing access points without dismantling anything. The image is viewed and recorded on the instrument's screen.
Can a borescope be used at high temperatures?
It depends on the instrument. The Mitcorp X2000 used on this job operates with the probe between −10 and 100 °C and warns at 60, 80 and 100 °C, so temperature can be watched throughout the inspection.
Which plant equipment can be inspected this way?
Turbines, engines, gearboxes, pipes, heat exchangers and boilers, among other critical equipment, as long as there is an access point for the probe.
Do you sell or rent the Mitcorp X2000?
Yes. The Mitcorp X2000 is available for sale and rental in Lima, and we also use it on our inspection services.
