RVI

Remote visual inspection (RVI) reveals internal risk factors that might otherwise escape detection, and our RVI is one our specialties at IIA. Our assortment of RVI cameras include explosion-proof models that can navigate tanks, tubes, vessels and pipes with ease. RVI offers an affordable alternative to disassembly and allows our experts to gather critical information in hazardous environments without risking worker safety. From access points as small as one-quarter inch in diameter, we can provide internal visual inspections of tanks, tubes, vessels or pipes, including:

  • Cracks, Holes or Joint Separation
  • Collapsed Pipes
  • Blockage or Debris Build Up
  • Foreign Object Removal/Retrieval
  • General Assessment - Cleanliness, Corrosion, Water
  • Feedwater Line Inspections
  • ROV to assist in inspection of CST and RWST tanks

You can choose us to do the RVI for you or you can rent one of our RVI systems. We’ll work with you for either option.
