microReel APX – English – 7
Description
The RIDGID®SeeSnake®microReel™APX™
is a portable and customizable diagnostic
camera reel with enhanced imaging fea-
tures.
The stiffer push cable makes the microReel
ideal for inspecting longer runs in pipes that
are 38mm to 102 mm [1.5in to 4 in]. The
included kickstand lets you set up the mi-
croReel in the optimal position for stability
while pushing or retrieving the cable.
The microReel features a built-in sonde in
the camera head that can be located with a
utility locating receiver to find points of inter-
est in the pipe.
The microReel is compatible with all
SeeSnake monitors. The CSx Via™mobile
inspection device easily connects to the mi-
croReel APX via the slip-ring cavity.
APX Features
The microReel APX is equipped with an
auto image flip feature. When connected
to a SeeSnake CSx series device, the mi-
croReel APX flips your onscreen image as
the camera rotates through the pipe, ensur-
ing your image remains oriented upright. An
on-screen icon indicates the vertical orien-
tation with respect to the image.
SeeSnake microReel APX Overview
TruSense Technology Description
The microReel APX includes a TruSense
technology-enabled camera. TruSense
technology establishes a two-way commu-
nication link between the camera head and
a connected CSx series Wi-Fi enabled mon-
itor. TruSense features advanced on-cam-
era sensors that convey valuable informa-
tion about the in-pipe environment.
Included TruSense-Enabled Sensors
TiltSense™
The TiltSense inclinometer measures the
camera’s degree of tilt and displays it on a
CSx series Wi-Fi enabled monitor, giving
you a useful indicator of the camera’s angle
as it lays inside the pipe.
High Dynamic Range Image Sensor
The HDR sensor expands the camera’s
dynamic range, allowing a greater ratio of
bright and dark areas to be displayed in the
same image at the same time without re-
ducing visibility. The result is superior clarity
and detail, allowing you to quickly and easily
identify problem areas.
