THE POSSIBLE USES FOR ZISTOS VIDEO INSPECTION EQUIPMENT in industrial applications are virtually endless. Any situation requiring vision into inaccessible, potentially hazardous or just hard-to-reach areas can be answered by one of Zistos’ basic inspection systems. As always, the unique modular design affords instant adaptability to go wherever the unaided human eye cannot. These cost-effective systems are extremely lightweight and portable, making them ideal for general purpose applications that require the flexibility that only Zistos offers.

MODULAR BY DESIGN
The entire Zistos line is designed to be modular for maximum flexibility and adaptability. All cameras, pole extensions, video displays and accessories are completely interchangeable. Any system can be expanded at any time.

UTILITY
Utility Vault
Inspecting high energy components in vaults and conduits can be time consuming and present difficult access and safety challenges. Zistos manufactures a variety of rugged, compact video cameras which are mounted to telescoping poles for remote video inspection.

Special camera technologies available include dual thermal/visible and self illuminated 10:1 color zoom. A rugged display is separate from the camera and pole for viewing at a safe distance. These pole camera systems facilitate entanglement inspection, triage of failure events, and visual assessment of difficult to access areas where space or possible danger are a factor.

Cameras and poles are submersible, the display is weather proof and all come packaged in a foam-fitted hard case. Additional components can be added at any time, as needed.

THERMAL CAMERA    
The Dual Mode Thermal Camera is Zistos’ most capable camera for many industrial and inspection applications. The rugged aluminum enclosure is waterproof and measures only 1.9” in diameter, allowing access through a 2” hole.

The Dual Mode Thermal Camera combines two types of technology, thermal imaging and low light sensitive CCD, into one camera making an extremely powerful and versatile camera. The thermal imaging technology, which can detect heat signatures through smoke and fog, can quickly locate overheated equipment, machinery, wiring, etc. The low light sensitive, high resolution BW CCD camera with infrared illumination can then provide much more detail to better assess the situation. The operator can easily and instantly toggle between the two modes using the illumination control on the WalkAbout® monitor.

ZOOM CAMERA    
The Zoom Camera is ideal for many industrial applications. Its 10X zoom lens, together with its powerful 24 bright white LEDS, provide a detailed color image at over 60 feet in total darkness. The waterproof Zoom Camera, like all other Zistos cameras, attaches to any gooseneck or articulating pole. The zoom controls (zoom in push button and zoom out pushbutton) attach to any pole to provide easy operation while holding the pole.

VIDEOSCOPE, FIBERSCOPE & BORESCOPE KITS
Videoscopes, Fiberscopes and Borescopes allow access into areas through much smaller openings that the standard cameras and are popular complements to any system.

Videoscopes, which offer 4-way articulation, provide a much better image than fiberscopes and borescopes, almost always making the best choice. Fiberscopes, which offer either 2-way or 4-way articulation, have the advantage of being usable without a monitor, by viewing the image directly through the eyepiece. Borescopes, which do not articulate, provide either right angle or straight views, making them the best choice for certain situations.

All Videoscope, Fiberscope, and Borescope Kits are compatible with the WalkAbout® II monitor. All kits include a camera cable, battery powered light source, guide tube and rugged carry case. Fiberscope and Borescope Kits also include a video camera and camera lens adapter. All kits are available with either a color or B&W camera.
