FRP01 PROTEUS Flotation Raft

Eliminate the need for man-entry. The floatation raft features three ex- tremely powerful angled auxiliary LED ultra-bright light modules to pro- vide enough light to illuminate pipes in excess of 2000mm Small enough to be lowered down most common sizes of manhole cover, the compact design allows inspection capabilities in pipes from 600mm.
Designed and manufactured in-house to exacting standards, the tough polyethylene construction of the raft body is impact resistant and designed to withstand challenging inspections. An in-built lowering loop makes for quick and easydeployment and retrivial, and the factory tested floatation plate ensures the device is perfectly balanced to eliminate rolling.
Simply plug and play* with an existing Proteus System
