We congratulate you on buying your iRis DVR
X
Industrial Videoscope, in the following just named iRis.
It unites Light Source, TFT Display plus Image Storage and Video Recording Device.
The diversity of inspection objects, materials and lightning conditions often makes it difficult to get
high-quality images. It is easy to adjust the iRis to your application to receive optimal inspection images
even in extreme situations.
Always keep the Operation Manual with the iRis. It contains all information for safe and efficient operation.
However, should you have further questions, feel free to contact our Service Team.
Introduction

6
Read the Operation Manual care-
fully before using the iRis.
Caution! The iRis has to be employed by
skilled and qualifi ed personnel appropriate
to the application. The iRis is designed for
a diversifi ed fi eld of applications in Industry,
Building and Science. Only use the iRis as
intended.
Caution! Never use the iRis in running
machines.
Caution! The iTool has not to be used in
specially designated or prohibited areas
(e.g. Explosion Prevention).
Electric Shock! No unauthorised opening
of the casing. There is high danger of electric
shock due to parts being under voltage. For
higher abrasion resistance the fl exible and
bendable probe is sheathed with tungsten.
This can lead to electric shock at contact with
live parts. Therefore the iRis is never to be
used in or at objects under tension.
Caution! Never look directly into the light
emitting part of the iRis. It can cause injuries
of eyes. Always switch off the Light Source
before changing, controlling or cleaning the
objective or the distal end of the Videoscope.
Caution! Use the iRis in dry environments
only. According IP53 the housing is protected
against splash water. The housing if the iRis
is never to be immerged in water or cleaned
directly under running water.
Caution! Using mains adapter without earth
conducter and without galvanic isolation can
lead to a tungsten braid being under electric
tension. Therefore only use mains supplies
delivered with the iRis.
Caution! If the objective is dirty the distal
end may heathen up. This can lead to ignition
of highly combustible materials. Furthermore
it can lead to burns at direct contact. Regular
cleaning should be made.
Warning Notices and Precautions

7
Caution! When inspecting hot objects the
probe may heat up according ambient tempe-
rature. Avoid direct contact to the probe after
such applications – High risk of burns.
Do not throw battery into fi re.
Do not recharge defect battery, but replace it
immediately.
The iRis is an electric device and must not
be disposed in domestic waste. Pursuant to
European Directive 2002/96/EG on waste
electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)
and its transposition to national law used up
power tools have to be collected separately and
returned to environmentally compatible
recycling.
Recycling. Withdrawal of batteries
pursuant to the Battery Policy: According
to the German Battery Policy (BattV) we are
obliged to inform you about the rules and
liabilities for disposal and withdrawal of used
batteries and accumulators. According to
§7 German Battery Policy the end-user is
obliged to return used batteries and accu-
mulators. Contaminant-laden batteries and
accumulators are marked with a crossed
dustbin with the chemical symbol of the
contained heavy metal under it (Cd for
cadmium, Hg for mercury, Pb for lead). Batte-
ries and accumulators must not be disposed
in domestic waste and can be handed free
of charge to any designated collection and
withdrawal point. Of course batteries and ac-
cumulators you got from IT Concepts can be
handed or sent to us.

TFT Display. Image captures and video
recordings can be marked with a text
line.
The probe can be inserted to a
cavity, e.g. a tube. The user can
lock the articulating head of the
probe in the desired position during
inspections. The articulation can be
moved in four directions (up/down and
left/right) which really facilitates passing
multiple covings.

to be that large that movements
with the diameter and length of the
articulating part are possible and
don’t result in seizing. The shea-
thing of the insertion tube is made
of tungsten netting and particular
increases the durability of the fl exible
probe. The inspection area can be
