Pipe-cleaning company uses remote video monitor system to inspect sewer pipe

Problem: Quality Pipe Services of Colorado was contracted to clean and inspect sanitary sewer pipe that was designated for CIP lining, which included removal of fixed debris within the pipeline. The fixed debris, mainly mineral deposits, was in each joint at the 9 and 3 o’clock positions. QPS wanted the jetter operator to see a live feed from the CCTV equipment to supplement or eliminate the need for radios or cellphones. 

Solution: PURE Software Solutions provided a JetView remote video monitor system that wirelessly streams video from the CCTV equipment up to 1,300 feet away for jetter operators to view on a 10.4-inch daylight-readable monitor. On the first occurrence of debris, the operator was able to view his tool in the line and keep the chains on the debris.

Result: Time spent on the job was reduced by roughly 66 percent and water consumption dropped nearly 50 percent. QPS has committed to equipping all its CCTV vehicles with a JetView. 303/867-1414; www.puresoftwaresolutions.com.
