(Evident: Waltham, MA) -- Wind turbine gearbox inspections take place in cramped quarters, so inspection tools must be both compact and effective. Designed specifically for these challenges, the IPLEX G Lite-W videoscope from Evident combines portability with powerful imaging features packed into a small, ergonomic form factor. This enables users to visually inspect inside a wind turbine gearbox without disassembling it to spot issues before they turn into lengthy shutdowns.

Finish inspections faster

Wind turbine gearboxes contain lubricating oil that can adhere to the videoscope’s lens and cause blurry images. The IPLEX G Lite-W videoscope’s sealed tip keeps oil out, while channels on the oil-clearing tip adaptor use capillary action to draw oil away from the lens and help keep images clear.

To reduce the chance of damage during an inspection, the IPLEX G Lite-W videoscope is designed to meet IP65 standards and built to pass U.S. Department of Defense testing (MIL-STD). The insertion tube’s durable articulation mechanism helps protect the scope from damage when used in tight spaces.
