CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1. Product information
1.1.1. Intended use
The ROTIX chain scanner is a manually operated scanner which provides encoded
probe positions of two or four probes. The double wheel chain components straddle
the weld and fasten a scanning frame circumferentially around pipe or tubing.
1.1.2. Performance specications
Minimum Maximum
Pipe/Tube range (2 Probe) 10.1 cm (4 in) 96.5 cm (38 in)
Pipe/Tube range (4 Probe) 11.4 cm (4.5 in) 96.5 cm (38 in)
Umbilical length (Standard kit) 5 m (16.4 in)
X-Axis encoder resolution 9.05 counts/mm (230.0 counts/inch)
1.1.3. Operating environment
The ROTIX chain scanner is designed for use in an industrial environment that is
between -20°C (-4°F) and 50°C (122°F).
1.1.4. Environmental Sealing
Dust tight, water tight (not submersible).
1.2. Denition of symbols
Instructions to ‘look here’ or to ‘see this part’.
Denotes movement. Instructing user to carry out
action in a specied direction.
Indicates alignment axis.
Alerts user that view has changed to a reverse angle.

1.3. Hardware
1.3.1. Included tools
The 3 mm hex driver (Fig. 1) is sufcient for all typical operations and adjustments
of the ROTIX. The 3/8 in wrench (Fig. 2) is used to remove and install buttons on
the probe holders.
1.3.2. Optional tools
Some specialized adjustments require tools that are not included with this kit.
1.3.3. Maintenance
General cleaning of components is important to keep your system working well. All
components that have no wiring or cables are completely waterproof. Components
can be washed with warm water, dish soap and a medium bristle brush.
After washing your system, use a light oil to lubricate the slide and the adjustment
screw on the buckle component (Fig. 10). Before using the scanner, ensure all
connectors are free of water and moisture.
NOTE: All components with wiring, cables or electrical connections are splash
proof. However, these components are NOT submersible.
NOTE: Never use strong solvents or abrasive materials to clean your scanner
components.
