Crawler weight (P354 Only)
The crawler weight is a metal plate designed to increase traction by adding more weight to the crawler.
Attach the weight on the crawler body before attaching other wheels and accessories, then secure with
the provided screws.
Wheels and tires
The P354
uses the small and medium wheel sets. These can also be ‘doubled-up’ to improve traction in
larger pipes. Its recommended range is between 4
½” and 15” (60mm to 305mm). The small wheels are
62mm / 2.5” diameter and the medium wheels are 110mm / 4.3” diameter.
The P356
uses small, medium and large wheels, which can also be ‘doubled-up’ to improve traction.
This allows its use for centralized survey of pipe diameters between 6½
” and 36” (165mm and 900mm).
The P356 Compact Cradle and Cradle, with an elevator, allow centered inspection of pipes to a
maximum of 60” / 1500mm.
The small and medium wheels come with hard or soft tire material options to suit different grip
requirements. The large wheels are 170mm / 6.7” in diameter.
Note
:
although it will work electrically and mechanically, we do not recommend use of a PTZ camera on
a P354 Crawler due to the weight and size of the camera
.
