Search & Rescue Borescope

Model 173925 Scan/Zoom Rigid Search Kit

Searches need large optics, powerful illumination, and comparatively indestructible probe construction -- hence, the large-diameter borescope that ITI builds with extra illumination fibers and heavy stainless steel tubing. A heavy-duty 25.4mm diameter scope, this model increases the operators capability with a variable line of sight (85º scan) and a variable field of view (4X zoom). After scanning the entire space to identify items of interest, the operator can zoom in for closer inspection. At a fixed f/# setting, zoom does not sacrifice image brightness, thanks to an ITI proprietary design. The Scan/Zoom Rigid Search Borescope is designed as a rugged, versatile, self-contained, remote viewing instrument.

The stainless steel probe can be submerged in water up to the eyepiece body. The eyepiece body is designed to be water resistant but not submersible. Three control knobs on the eyepiece body are for scan, zoom, and focus. The controls are large for ease of use while wearing gloves. A handle is provided, as part of the illumination guide, to manipulate the borescope. This scope increases the operators capability with a variable line of sight. With 0° being a forward line of sight and 90° being a right angle line of sight, this scope allows the operator to scan from a 40° forward oblique continuously through 125° retro oblique lines of sight. This scope also allows the operator to continuously vary the field of view from 10° through 40°. With a constant f/# zoom, the scope does not sacrifice any image brightness.
