Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about IBAK pipeline inspection equipment and purchasing from Brown Equipment Company.

A CCTV sewer inspection camera system is a closed-circuit television setup designed to visually inspect the interior of underground pipelines without excavation. The system typically consists of a waterproof camera mounted on a motorized tractor (crawler) or pushrod, a cable reel for deployment and retrieval, a control unit for operating the camera and tractor, and software for recording video, coding defects, and generating reports. IBAK systems range from portable push cameras for 3" residential laterals to full fiber optic HD/4K systems that inspect mainlines up to 120". Municipalities, utilities, and contractors use CCTV inspection to assess pipe condition, locate defects like cracks, root intrusion, and blockages, and prioritize repairs—all without digging up streets or disrupting service.
Traditional CCTV inspection uses a pan-and-tilt camera mounted on a crawler tractor. An operator manually controls the camera direction in real-time to inspect pipe walls, joints, and defects. PANORAMO 360° scanning captures a complete panoramic image of the entire pipe surface in a single pass. The data can be reviewed later in the office with virtual pan-and-tilt, unfolded views, and precise measurements. PANORAMO allows operators to inspect up to 2x more pipe per day and reduces operating costs by up to 30% compared to traditional CCTV, because the scanner moves continuously through the pipe without stopping to manually aim the camera at each defect.
IBAK manufactures a comprehensive range of pipeline inspection and rehabilitation equipment including: CCTV inspection cameras (ARGUS 6, ORPHEUS HD, ORION 3, NANO HD) for pipes from 3" to 120"; 360° pipeline scanners (PANORAMO 4K, PANORAMO 150 4K) for rapid full-circle scanning; manhole scanners (PANORAMO SI 4K); lateral launch systems (LISY 4.2); camera tractors (T66, T76) for navigating pipelines; cable reels (KW 207 through KW 505) with up to 1,656 ft capacity; control units (BP 3, BS 3.5, BS 7, BS 10.0) from portable to vehicle-mounted; rehabilitation robots (MicroGator series) for cutting, grinding, and jetting; accessories including lift kits, outriggers, and specialty wheels; and IKAS Evolution software for PACP/LACP/MACP-compliant reporting.
IBAK offers cameras and systems for virtually any pipe diameter. The NANO HD handles pipes as small as 3" (75mm). The ORION 3 covers 4" to 48". The ORPHEUS HD and ARGUS 6 handle large mains up to 120" (3050mm). The PANORAMO 4K scanner works in 8" to 48"+ pipes. For rehabilitation, the MicroGator 150 fits into pipes as small as 6", while the MicroGator 2.0 and Air models work in 8" and larger.
Yes. IBAK's IKAS Evolution software supports full PACP (Pipeline Assessment Certification Program), LACP (Lateral Assessment Certification Program), and MACP (Manhole Assessment Certification Program) coding standards. The software enables standard-compliant data acquisition, defect scoring, report generation, and professional deliverables including viewer disks. IKAS Evolution is available in Vehicle, Office, and Mobile editions to match your workflow.
Yes. Brown Equipment Company offers hands-on demonstrations of IBAK inspection and rehabilitation equipment. You can schedule a demo where our team brings the equipment to your location so your operators can test it under real field conditions. This helps evaluate image quality, ease of operation, and fit for your specific inspection and rehabilitation needs. Contact us to schedule a demo.
Yes. RapidView IBAK equipment is available through Sourcewell (contract #120721-RVL) and other cooperative purchasing contracts. These contracts streamline procurement for municipalities, counties, utilities, and government agencies. Contact Brown Equipment for contract pricing and availability in your area.
Yes. Brown Equipment Company is an authorized IBAK dealer with trained service technicians. We provide full-service support including preventive maintenance, warranty repairs, parts supply, operator training, and technical troubleshooting. We back every sale with ongoing support to keep your inspection and rehabilitation equipment running at peak performance.
A MicroGator is IBAK's line of robotic pipeline rehabilitation systems. These remotely operated robots travel through pipelines on a tractor platform and perform precision cutting, grinding, and water jetting operations from inside the pipe. Common uses include reinstating lateral connections after CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) lining, removing root intrusion, grinding protruding taps, setting top hats and sleeves, and removing hardened deposits with ultra-high-pressure water (up to 37,000 PSI on the MicroGator GT). The MicroGator 2.0 uses electric motors for quiet, fume-free operation, while the MicroGator Air uses pneumatic power for a more affordable entry point. All models feature CutterCam® for real-time operator visibility during cutting operations.
