CUES Inc.,LAMPII User Manual | LM903 www.cuesinc.com,| salesinfo@cuesinc.com
The CUES LAMPII is designed to perform pan and
tilt inspections of the mainline sewer pipe while
viewing and inspecting:
• Stainless Steel Cable Option: up to
feet into a lateral pipe.
• Fiberglass Cable Option: up to feet
into a lateral pipe.
The LAMPII is able to accomplish this by integrating
a self-propelled lateral launcher, transportation
platform, and two cameras, one for pan, tilt, and
optical zoom operations (mainline) and one for
lateral launching. An optional Lateral Pan & Tilt
Camera is available, but requires a specic LAMPII
compatible unit.
The LAMPII is a variable weight,motorized,wheeled
vehicle with integrated self-propelled lateral
launcher and cameras for use in sewer pipelines up
to ” in diameter. The speed and direction of the
transporter is controlled by the stand-alone, game
pad, or wireless controllers (refer to the Functional
Checkout section in this manual for more details).
The mainline camera is located on the front of the
LAMPII and is used to provide a ‘pan, tilt, optical
zoom’ viewof the mainline pipe,to locatelaterals that
are to be inspected, and to monitor the insertion of
the lateral camera into the lateral. Since the mainline
camera can locate house laterals from inside the
mainline sewer pipe, the inspection can be carried
out without any other access to the lateral being
required.
The lateral camera is xed to the push cable and is
transported through the mainline sewer pipe in the
LAMPII. After a lateral is located with the mainline
camera, the launcher performs the necessary
positioning functions to properly guide and direct
the lateral launcher into the lateral service. To
performthe lateral pipe inspection,the self propelled
launcher extends and retracts the mini-camera and
push cable into the lateral.
The optionalCUES Lateral Pan&Tilt Camera(shown
above) is designed to work with the LAMPII lateral
launcher as an optional pan and tilt push camera.
The camera is designed to navigate through multiple
wyes and and degree bends / sweeps.
The inner core of the push cable not only transmits
the power to the mini-camera and integral light ring,
but alsocarries the video signalfromthe mini-camera
tothe truck.This ensuresthatthe lateralinspections,
as wellas mainline inspections,arevisible on the same
video monitor located in the CUES multi-conductor
inspection system (picture-in- picture capabilities
- PIP). The lateral reel can retrieve the push cable
as the push camera is retracted.
