Z160

FUEL INSPECTION HD CAMERA

The predecessor of the Z170 HDC, engineered for detailed close-up inspections with HD imaging of highly irradiated fuel. It is widely used in 4-FACE fuel inspection systems, fresh fuel elevators, fuel preparation machines, and other manipulators, and has been successfully delivered for PWR, BWR, VVER and CANDU reactors. The camera features precise pan & tilt movements and active internal cooling, ensuring reliable performance even in the most demanding nuclear environments.
