The transmitters operate at the industry-standard of
512Hz, are extremely durable, require no batteries for op-
eration and are flexible so they do not interfere with cam-
era's ability to go through turns.

Installing Pipe Centering Guides

Pipe centering guides are designed to help center the
camera in pipes of various sizes, and keep the camera
clear of bottom sludge in the pipe. By bringing the camera
closer to the center of the pipe they improve picture qual-
ity, allowing the camera to see equally in all directions and
keeping the camera lens clear during inspections.
Centering guides should generally be used when pos-
sible, because they reduce wear and tear on the camera
system. If you run into difficulty moving the camera
through a particular pipe, the centering guides can be
easily removed. The placement of the guides can be ad-
justed to best suit the job. For example, you may find that
placing two centering guides near the front end of the
camera may bias the camera head upward. This could
be beneficial if you need to see the top of the pipe dur-
ing your inspection.
There are three kinds of centering guides available for
SeeSnake systems. They are:
a. Star Guides
b. Ball Guides
c. Roller-Dolly (Standard only)
The type of centering guide you choose depends on the
diameter and complexity of the pipe line you are going to
inspect.

Installing Star Guides

Star guides support the camera head through the use of
vanes extending out from the center ring. They are held
in place with C-shaped clip-rings.
