CUES - Steerable Pipe Ranger Transporter (SPRII)
The Steerable Pipe Ranger II includes full proportional steering that enables you to traverse meandering pipe and 45° and 90° turns. One joystick is used to control steering, the optional remotely controlled camera lift, and a pan and tilt zoom camera. The remote controlled camera lift precludes manhole entry during insertion and retrieval. The Steerable Pipe Ranger combined with the CUES OZ II optical zoom camera offers you one of the most compact assemblies in the industry.
Basic Features & Benefits
- Operates with CUES multi or single conductor systems
- Operates with all CUES cameras: mini-mainline, pan-and-tilt, optical zoom
- All-wheel drive is enclosed and sealed
- Two speed transmission doubles the torque and maximizes traction
- All brass and stainless steel construction
- Three wheel sets (3.7", 5.0", and 10.5" diameter) for small, intermediate, and large diameter pipes
- Inspects 7" through 60" diameter lines
- Compact transporter/pan-and-tilt camera assembly; facilitates entry into small inverts
- Rear tip up bulkhead connector minimizes strain on cable connection
- Designed to traverse storm drains and pipe with debris and silt
- Freewheel, powered reverse, forward variable speed control
- Rugged, durable and sealed to eliminate water intrusion
Steerable Features & Benefits
- Compact camera/transporter length with the optical zoom pan & tilt camera (OZ II)
- Full proportional steering control; can turn 360° within its own radius; pinpoint control maximizes the ability to traverse challenging pipe conditions
- Can traverse meandering pipe with 45° and 90° turns; minimizes transporter turnover in small diameter pipe
- Designed to traverse storm drains and pipe with debris and silt
- Facilitates entry into small inverts, small manholes, dead end lines, and traversal of sweeps
- Reduces stress on interface cables during inspection and retrieval
- Can inspect 8" relined pipe
- Inspection speed can be optimized to match pipe conditions and pipe size in 8" through 60" pipe
- Can operate on all truck-mounted and portable systems
- Flight stick controller to operate the transporter, optional camera lift and camera movements with one hand; provides operational simplicity
The CUES SPR II (Steerable Pipe Ranger II) is a versatile robotic camera transporter designed to traverse silt, mud and debris commonly found in storm and sanitary sewers. The SPR II is designed with single-point wheel removal to facilitate speedy configuration changes for various pipe diameters and conditions. Optional high traction tires are available for extreme slippery conditions.
The unit is designed to operate with all CUES inspection systems with up to 2000’ of single-conductor or multi-conductor cable to inspect 7” through 72” diameter pipe. The unique built in two (2) speed transmission doubles the torque of the unit to produce maximum pulling power in large diameter pipe when the 10.5” diameter tires are installed. The Steerable Pipe Ranger includes full proportional steering enabling traversal of meandering pipe with 45° and 90° turns. Wheels and spacers designed for the CUES Compact Steerable Pipe Ranger LAMP II lateral launcher, and Wheeled / tracked transporter can be used for the Steerable Pipe Ranger II without the need for modification.
