GeoVISION™ Borehole Video System Features

Appropriate Depth Compatibility

The GeoVISION™ Deluxe systems are designed for maximum depths of 2000 feet with their longest cable. The Econo Light Duty has a maximum depth of 325 feet and the Econo Heavy Duty has a maximum depth of 1000 feet. These depths are more than adequate for the vast majority of borehole applications.  Additional depth capabilities require expensive housing and other features which reduce the cost effectiveness of the system for most users.

Versatile

GeoVISION™ can be used in many ways. The motorized mirror and Pan and Tilt attachments allow one to view in all directions. Attachment receptors are also available to measure water movement and distances.  See Down Hole Camera Techniques

GeoVISION™ systems may be powered from both 12 Volt DC or 110 AC.

Maneuverable and Small

GeoVISION™ video borehole camera systems are the smallest available. Not only are GeoVISION™ cameras small and fit into and out of small holes, the GeoVISION™  Econo and Deluxe systems have a threaded pipe fitting ready for attaching a user supplied pipe string so the camera can be pushed or pulled past obstructions. The camera can also be pushed and pulled horizontally or overhead.
