Why the Waygate XL Detect+ Is the Go-To Borescope for Accurate, Reliable Inspections

Engineered for professionals who demand precision in every inspection, the XL Detect+ delivers confidence where it matters most. Whether you’re navigating complex systems or working in the field, this portable borescope brings clarity, efficiency, and durability to every job, no matter the environment or industry. Designed to perform in real-world conditions, it helps reduce downtime, improve inspection accuracy, and streamline decision-making when every second counts.

High-Resolution Display. Compact, Field-Ready Design

The XL Detect+ features an integrated 5-inch VGA color LCD screen that’s 85% larger and three times brighter than its predecessor, delivering unmatched image clarity in any lighting condition.

Whether you’re inspecting in low-light or reflective environments, the enhanced optics and powerful light output reduce eyestrain and improve visual accuracy.

At just 1.98 kg (4.37 lbs) without its case, the system is engineered for true portability, with an ergonomic build that minimizes fatigue during extended use and a wheeled carry-on case for easy transport across challenging worksites.

Rugged Performance, Reliable Power from the Waygate XL Detect+

Designed for demanding industrial environments, the XL Detect+ is tested to IP64 standards and built to withstand drops from 1.2 meters (4 feet), as well as exposure to dust, vibration, salt fog, and even freezing rain.

Its insertion tube and tip are waterproof up to 14.7 psi (1 bar, 10.2 m of H₂O), ensuring reliable performance in harsh conditions.

Powering through long inspections is no issue, the system delivers up to 4 hours of runtime with its optional 75 Wh Lithium Ion battery, giving you the confidence to complete complex inspections without interruption.

Precision Control, Versatile Probe Options

The XL Detect+ is equipped with 360° All-Way probe articulation powered by XpertSteer technology, giving you smooth, responsive control to navigate even the most complex pathways. With bump steering for fine adjustments and a “Steer & Stay” lock to hold position, it’s easy to keep the probe exactly where you need it.

The system supports 26 interchangeable probe tips in 4.0 mm, 6.1 mm, and 8.4 mm sizes, offering multiple Fields of View (40° to 120°) and Depths of Field (1 mm to infinity).

In simple terms, whether you need a wide-angle look at a large cavity or a close-up view of a tiny defect, the XL Detect+ adapts to the job, helping you see clearly and inspect with confidence.

Smarter Inspections & Streamlined Reporting.

With Menu Directed Inspection (MDI) 2.0, the XL Detect+ guides users step by step through inspection workflows, automatically tagging images, organizing results, and simplifying report generation.

The software produces DICONDE-compatible inspection files—the industry standard for storing and sharing inspection data, along with MS Word®-ready reports, making documentation seamless.

In practice, this means less time spent formatting files and more time focusing on results. By keeping inspection data organized, standardized, and easy to share, the XL Detect+ helps teams work faster and ensures findings can be trusted and reviewed across industries.
