Wind turbine gearbox inspections take place in cramped quarters, so inspection tools must be compact and effective. Designed specifically for these challenges, the IPLEX™ G Lite-W videoscope combines portability with powerful imaging features packed into a small, ergonomic form factor. It enables users to visually inspect inside a wind turbine gearbox without disassembling it to spot issues before they turn into lengthy shutdowns.
Wind turbine gearboxes contain lubricating oil, which 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, helping keep images clear.
