The mention of handheld industrial endoscopes may seem unfamiliar to many people, but if you have ever set foot in the vast land of northwest China, or have regularly documented about nature and the environment, then you will definitely be impressed by the windmills that stand in the vast wilderness. In the grasslands and deserts of the northwest, wind farms are everywhere. Hundreds of windmills, like giant white wings, breathe life into this silent land, and these huge windmills are wind power.
Wind power generation is the process of generating electricity by using a wind turbine gearbox (also known as a "windmill") to rotate. In this process, the state of the "windmill" is directly related to the efficiency and safety of power generation, so its maintenance and overhaul are very important. Designed specifically for wind power, the Olympus handheld industrial borescope iPlex G Lite-W combines portability and powerful imaging capabilities into a small, ergonomic body that allows for visual inspection of the interior without disassembling the wind turbine gearbox.
The Olympus handheld industrial borescope iPlex G Lite-W offers a new solution for wind turbine gearbox inspection with improved optics, durability and convenience, and powerful oil-repellent cleaning. The iplex G Lite-W handheld industrial borescope features an all-in-one illumination system that balances the need for illumination for a close-up view of wind turbine gearbox areas such as bearings and gear teeth. This optical system can both find defects in the entire space of the wind turbine gearbox and enter the space between the bearings of the wind turbine to look for damage. At the same time, the integrated lighting system provides sufficient illumination for the inspection environment, which can effectively find defects in dark areas. It is equipped with a semi-flexible light guide tube that can position the endoscope to capture images. Therefore, the entire optical system of the IPlex G Lite-W is very suitable for inspecting small and complex spaces in wind turbine gearboxes.
The Olympus handheld industrial borescope iPlex G Lite-W is designed for durability and convenience. It weighs only 116 kg, allowing inspectors to safely and easily bring the endoscope to the roof of the tower nacelle. What's more, the ergonomic design of the IPLEX G Lite-W makes it hand-friendly, even when operating with gloves inside the wind turbine gearbox. It also complies with international IP65 standards and has passed the testing of the United States Department of Defense (MIL-STD) to maintain normal detection in many complex environments. Thanks to the insertion tube's durable articulation, the IPLEX G Lite-W is designed to protect the endoscope from damage when used in confined spaces.
It is worth mentioning that the Olympus handheld industrial borescope iPlex G Lite-W also has a powerful oil-repellent cleaning function. As long as the person who has tested the wind power gearbox knows that the wind power gearbox contains the lubricating oil that will be used, which is easy to adhere to the industrial endoscope lens, resulting in the lens will be blocked by oil stains, resulting in a very bad detection effect and very low efficiency. The IPLEX G Lite-W lens has a special oil-proof treatment to keep the lubricating oil out of the lens, and is equipped with an advanced oil-resistant optical adapter that uses the capillary action of the upper channel to suck the lubricating oil away from the lens to help the inspector carry out the inspection. At the same time, the smooth oil-repellent coating of the IPLEX G Lite-W allows inspectors to clean quickly and easily after inspecting the wind turbine gearbox, reducing the time wasted by cleaning the surface lubricating oil.
Olympus handheld industrial borescope iPlex G Lite-W is produced by Evident, a well-known manufacturer of non-destructive testing instruments, Evident not only inherits Olympus' 100 years of manufacturing experience, but also fully implements the flexible and scientific product concept, to create such an endoscope specially designed for wind power gearbox inspection, with the continuous development of wind power technology, Evident will continue to innovate to help the sustainable development of the wind power industry.
