Maxprobe Camera Control Unit

The Maxprobe CCU is a ruggedised, weatherproof data entry workstation specifically
designed to enable a user to record, detail, and report a pipeline inspection survey while on
site. The case is manufactured from high-grade polycarbonate to provide a strong, tough
and impact resistant outer case (see Figure 2). The lid has two heavy-duty hinges and is
secured closed by two metal draw latches. When closed, the lid is sealed with a neoprene
seal, providing the box with almost complete weatherproofing (rated to IP56).

Caution: Risk of Damage
Check to make sure there are no external devices remaining plugged into the
front connectors, and that there are no objects on the keyboard, before closing
the keyboard. Closing the lid while devices remain plugged in may damage the
device, keyboard, and the front connectors. Objects on the keyboard may
damage the screen, or keyboard, or cause damage to the CCU seals.
When opened, the lid hinges open to 90°, allowing access to the workstation keypad. This is
a showerproof elastomer keypad, connected to the main body of the Maxprobe CCU by a
coiled wire (see Figure 3). When opened, the Maxprobe CCU is showerproof (rated to
IP54), but in persistent heavy rain it is advisable to set up in shelter to minimise the risk of
water ingress. When the survey is finished, wipe the rubber keypad dry and leave the lid
open in a warm environment to allow any condensation to evaporate.
