Dart adds LCD endoscope to product offering

Dart Systems has expanded its offering of endoscopes and inspection systems with the addition of the LCD endoscope.

The LCD bore scope/endoscope is designed to allow users to inspect cavities inside engines, machinery and pipes while recording the information they see.

It features a CMOS image sensor that provides high resolution, full colour images that can be recorded or photographed within the self-contained unit.

Lighting is provided by white LED's, ensuring that the smallest points of interest can be inspected.

The LCD endoscope also features a standard 1GB SD card (or optional 2GB card) that will allow up to 1.5 hours of continuous recording or 14,630 photos, and a high capacity battery that will run for four hours continuously after being charged for two hours.

It has a shaft diameter of 5.5mm, which allows the unit to get through the spark plug hole of any petrol or diesel engine.

Currently the unit is supplied with a standard shaft length of 1m, with further options of 2m, 3m, 10m and 30m units also available.

The shafts are interchangeable with a push fit and screw retention connector which means the inspection shaft can be replaced or upgraded if new applications are identified.

The image is displayed on a 3.5in extra wide view TFT hand-held monitor that is protected by oil- and scratch-resistant tempered glass.

The video out facility also allows images to be displayed in real-time onto a monitor or recorded images can be played back.

Recorded images can also be downloaded through the mini USB connector to a PC to be used in reports or stored for future reference.
