Technology Highlights
Fiber-Optic Investigation
Vertical Access owns and operates a fiber-optic diagnostic tool called the "See Snake" for the investigation of internal leaders/drain pipes, duct work, cavity walls, crawl spaces, and other locations where human access is not possible. This rugged device consists of a miniature video camera with wide angle lens and built-in light source attached to 200 feet of heavy duty fiber-optic cable.
Fiber-optic investigation of a drain pipe embedded within a masonry wall at St. Thomas Church in New York City.
The See Snake has a portable monitor and VCR that is utilized on site for viewing and recording the video feed and operator's narration. The See Snake can fit in pipes 2" to 8" in diameter and can navigate horizontal and vertical surfaces as well as difficult 90 degree bends, diagonal runs, and connections.
A portable monitor with VCR allows the investigation to be viewed live while narration is recorded on site.
A built-in odometer records the total distance that the camera travels to assist in locating areas of deterioration. An added feature is a built-in radio transmitter for locating the camera within walls or other concealed locations.
Cracks in an old internal cast iron drain pipe were identified using the See Snake.
