ChainSCANNER Manual Inspection

The Olympus ChainSCANNER held by chain links is able to inspect ferromagnetic or non-ferromagnetic surfaces. The chain links help ensure a straight displacement of the scanner by eliminating steering issues. The positioning system is useful when the area around the pipe is difficult to access as the scanner can be rotated around the pipe using the chain links.
