Deep Trekker Nuclear inspection robotics

Underwater ROVs provide diver safety and prevent them from accessing hazardous and inaccessible underwater environments. Some inspections can be conducted during normal operating times, but other inspections are done during outages, which are small windows of time where getting the job done right is crucial and the cost of not achieving the goal is extremely high. It is important to have reliable and proven equipment for these applications.

Nuclear VT-1 & VT-3 Inspections

Equipped with high resolution cameras and lights, ROVs can easily maneuver around confined spaces in radiation areas without requiring a complete shutdown of plants, ensuring cost-effectiveness. Critical structures can be examined safely during VT-1 inspection and, with manipulator add-ons, maintenance tasks can be performed with efficiency during VT-3 inspections.

5 Ways ROVs Optimize Inspections at Nuclear Power Stations

Remotely Operated Submersible Vehicles or ROVs offer powerplant inspection teams an alternative or complement to sending divers underwater to perform routine and emergency inspection work on structures such as cooling towers, intakes, gates and trash racks.
