Damaged Camera Head Connector Ends

 

  

For PGR systems: see back page for how to care for the camera 
head connection.
For our older systems with pin connectors on the camera head,  
we recommend keeping the head attached to the push rod at all 
times to avoid accidental damage. 

Damaged or Broken Connection Pins

  

For current PGR systems with a patch cord: 

•  See how to connect to control box, pg 1.
•  The patch cord should NOT be disconnected from the push 

rod reel.  Check occasionally to make sure it is snug.

Broken Sapphire Window

The sapphire is nearly as hard as diamond; 

however it can break with extreme impact, 
especially on sharp edges of broken 
concrete or clay tile.  Using our IceBall, 
Snoball or other protective guides greatly 
reduces impact to the camera head. 

Damaged Pushrod

The camera should not be forced through blockages. This 
can cause the wires inside the push rod to become kinked, 
buckled or severed. Guides and running water can help 
reduce friction as you push the camera through a pipe. 

Help prevent 

repairs, see our
