Rausch Laser Pipe Profiling3-in-1 CCTV, profiling & measurement

The KS 135 Scan turns your Rausch crawler into a laser profiler. Two laser diodes beside the camera lens measure diameter, ovality and deflection as you televise, and POSM Pro builds the report on site.

How It Works

Measure the pipe while you televise it

Two laser diodes project points onto the pipe wall while the camera head spins. The system measures diameter and every change in it by triangulation, with no separate pass.

Built into the camera

The lasers sit on either side of the conventional CCTV lens, so one module does inspection, profiling and crack and joint measurement.

The spinning laser, live

The KS 135 Scan spins its two lasers around the pipe wall and traces the real shape of the pipe against its nominal size. Every few feet you get diameter, ovality and deflection, and the report flags anything over the limit.

Why DOTs ask for it

Many agencies require laser profiling of newly installed flexible pipe. Florida DOT Section 430, for example, sets 5% deflection as the acceptance cutoff for flexible pipe.

FAQ

Common questions

What is laser pipe profiling?

A crawler camera with built-in lasers measures the inside of the pipe as it travels, so you get diameter, ovality and deflection along the whole run, plus normal CCTV video.

Why would we need it?

Agencies often require laser profiling to accept newly installed flexible pipe. Florida DOT Section 430, for example, uses 5% deflection as the cutoff for flexible pipe.

Do we need to send the data out for analysis?

No. POSM Pro software builds instant and final reports on site, with no third-party analysis.

Does it need calibration?

There is no field calibration before each job, and the system verifies itself. We help coordinate periodic factory calibration with Rausch.

Can our city buy Rausch on contract?

Yes. Rausch is on Sourcewell and the Minnesota State Contract.

Can we see a demo?

Yes. Call us to set up a demo.

How It Works

HOW IT WORKS

The Rausch USA Laser Profiler features two laser diodes that are integrated into the KS 135 Scan camera head. When these laser diodes project laser dots onto the inner pipe wall, the camera head rotates to measure the diameter and all changes thereof via triangulation calculations. This method is called the “spinning laser” laser pipe profiling technology. Working in conjunction with the POSM software, the comprehensive scan generates easy to use reports to profile the pipe.

Detailed Operation

DETAILED OPERATION

On the way into the pipe, the system is used to perform conventional CCTV video inspection, as well as measuring all joint widths. In addition, individual laser measurements can be taken at any time to determine the actual pipe diameter and deflection, called a single point scan. These diameter and deflection measurements then become a part of the inspection report.

On the way out of the pipe, the system performs a “spinning laser” scan of the entire pipe length. The camera head swivels perpendicular to the pipe wall and rotates at a defined speed. Via triangulation the Scan software continuously calculates the precise pipe diameter and all deflections and deformations in the pipe profile. Once the run is completed, the software instantly generates graphs in 2- and 3-D. These graphs show any deflection, the average pipe diameter, and the inclination slope of the line.

The 3D viewer shows the measurement as a three-dimensional pipe with all deformations. In addition to the 3D pipe in which deformations are color-coded, depending on the thickness, a round graphic is displayed on the right-hand side, which represents a section at the currently selected point in the pipe.
Below the 3D view is a planar representation of the pipe, in which the texture is drawn out as a surface. The red bar shows the current position of the 3D view.

From Our Customers

"Jet Line Sales & Service offers the best equipment at competitive prices, coupled with excellent service on the products they sell. I bought the Rausch Push Camera System for inspecting drain tile, along with the locator. This system has saved countless hours solving many drainage issues. I have owned it for a year and it has already paid for itself in time and materials saved."
