The Agilios sewer inspection system is a portable push-rod camera solution designed for inspecting pipelines from DN50 up to DN300, using either a 60-metre or 100-metre rod, an ultra-light coiler frame and a choice of high-resolution camera heads. It gives sewer inspection companies a single platform for routine condition assessment, defect documentation and standards-compliant reporting in the field.

The system combines:

• XR60 or XR100 coilers with 60 m or 100 m push rods

• AC40 self-levelling camera head and PTP50 pan-and-tilt camera head

• VC500 control unit with embedded WinCan inspection software

• Optional accessories including skids, roller skids, trolley and battery packs

Together these components let operators perform inspections in varied conditions, document structural and service defects and deliver reports directly to clients on site.

The Agilios system is built to remove the typical constraints of small to mid-diameter pipe inspections: limited access, heavy equipment, short battery life and fragmented reporting workflows.

• Mobility problem → Solution: ultra-light coiler and trolley
  The aluminium coiler frames are lightweight (approximately 17 kg for XR60 and 27 kg for XR100) and can be moved easily using the integrated wheels and optional trolley, so operators can position equipment close to access points without manual strain.

• Power dependence → Solution: battery operation up to 6 hours
  Two exchangeable Li-ion batteries provide up to around six hours of operation, allowing inspections to continue on sites where mains power is unavailable or impractical.

• Narrow or varied pipe diameters → Solution: DN50–DN300 coverage
  The combination of AC40 and PTP50 camera heads covers nominal pipe diameters from DN50 through to DN300, with bend mobility from DN75, so crews can use one platform across a wide range of assets.

• Inconsistent reporting → Solution: embedded WinCan VX on VC500
  The VC500 control unit embeds WinCan VX to capture WSA and NZPIM compliant data, record video, add observations and generate reports without returning to the office.

By solving these problems in a single system, Agilios helps contractors lay the foundation to grow into a fully equipped sewer inspection company without having to replace their initial investment.

Trelleborg Pipe Seals Duisburg is among the leading specialist companies in innovative
technologies for the upkeep of sewer systems.

The brand name epros®DrainSystems stands for 20 years of experience, continuous research and
further development of technical systems for modern trenchless repair of pipelines in sewer
systems, buildings and industries.

The epros® DrainLCR-S system is both a pipe repair device and a method for the lateral connection repair (house lateral connections) of main pipes in public infrastructure networks.

It repairs and permanently seals main/lateral interfaces and lateral connections (DN 100 – DN 200) by installing either a LCR-S hat profile or an LCR-S liner from the main pipe (DN 135 – DN 600) up to a length of 600 mm.
The LCR-S hat profile seals the main/lateral junction in the main line just with its rim. The LCRS liner in the main pipe is designed similar to a short liner and will at the same time repair a defined length of the lateral pipe.

In both cases, the forming  element is an inflatable pro-formed hose that serves the same function.

This inflatable hose in the form of a cylinder (packer hose), is additionally equipped with another cylinder located at the mid-point (the lateral hose) at an angle of 45° or 90° to the axis of the packer.

Prior to installation, this lateral hose together with resin-impregnated LCR-S Liner or LCR-S hat profile is re-inverted into the packer hose.

Sucking out the complete air out of the packer hose and the branch hose generates a sort of vacuum, which allows to defend the repair material inside the packer hose (LCR-S Liner or LCR-S hat profile) from possible dislocation during the insertion into the pipe.

This is usually performed by means of a push rod reel system, and in case of short distances and small pipe diameters – with a pneumatic push-rod attached to the packer.

In case of both applications precise determination of damaged area as well as the correct positioning of the packer are imperative. The following devices are used for these purposes:

First, a camera is mounted on the packer. This camera helps to locate the junction of the house connection pipe to the main pipe.

The packer is equipped with a telescopic wheel system and a rotary drive that enables the user to rotate it axially in the damaged area and so to locate the junction whilst the wheel systems braced inside the pipe maintain the axial position.

The packer rod is featured by a lifting mechanism with a compressed air cylinder (pathfinder) pushing
a sort of ring (the packer basket) into the main/lateral junction area. This packer basket is located underneath the packer hose directly at the packer hose/ branch hose link and its lifting
mechanism is controlled via an operator panel from outside the pipe.

It is the function of the pathfinder to achieve the correct positioning inside the sewer pipe at the damaged lateral connection and to lift up the basket directly into the junction.

The LCR-S Packer, prepared in this way, is then pushed into the damaged area.

When the packer has reached its final position, the inflation process is started with the packer hose and after a given time delay continued with both, the lateral hose and liner, now inverting into the connection pipe whilst the lifting basket is driven back. The time-delayed inflation is controlled by means of a stiff cable, inserted and braked using a reeling box.

Partially inflated packer after positioning After the lateral packer hose has been completely inverted, a clear acoustic signal is given to indicate that the inversion process successfully is finalized.

After curing of the liner, the packer is blown off and removed from the repair area.
