Sewerage networks and their intricate workings are complex, and in this article we'll be revealing two facets of this special environment. Firstly, there are the "visitable" pipes, safe routes that enable specialists to intervene in complete safety. Secondly, the so-called "non-visitable" pipelines, where dimensional and legal constraints defy any attempt at human inspection.
Even though most underground drainage and sewerage infrastructures are now accessible to man for inspection, inspections remain costly and risky.
Multinnov offers the perfect solution for these environments: the Roview2 is the ideal tool for all pipe inspections, with or without the presence of water, and especially for non-cleaned networks. Among other things, it can float, which is no mean feat for this type of operation.
Visitable pipe :
For most visitable networks, it is imperative to implement extremely strict safety measures. These include proper training of personnel, use of appropriate personal protective equipment, monitoring of the overall environment, and establishment of intervention protocols.
Pipes are generally sized to be accessible to a person wishing to carry out an inspection. This means that pipes have a diameter large enough to allow a human being to pass through, or that they are equipped with specific entrances such as manholes or access shafts.
Today, this is becoming very restrictive and more complicated to carry out, requiring major operations and thus multiplying the risk of accidents.
Non-visitable pipe :
Non-visitable pipelines are isolated or underwater underground conduits designed without direct access for inspection. Below a certain diameter, human inspection is forbidden by law to guarantee their safety.
These confined environments are generally places where humans cannot gain access, particularly when the pipelines become far too dangerous, or require special measures and procedures for safety or efficiency reasons.
Today, Multinnov is able to offer an effective solution such as ROVIEW 2.
The Roview 2 is a French terrestrial drone that can spot and identify potential problems in confined environments, thereby reducing the risks associated with traditional practices, which are often found in work on pipes that can be visited.
It's a tool that can easily evolve in all kinds of environments, including nuclear, chemical, marine and underground geological formations. This machine is an ideal alternative, avoiding major operations and concretely reducing the risk of accidents, simplifying work and cutting costs.
Today, Multinnov serves industry by offering innovative, technological and practical systems like the Roview 2 at attractive prices. This robot is designed to perform dangerous tasks, replacing traditional methods to meet our customers' needs and improve safety in industrial and confined spaces.
