Boilers are extensively inspected with pipe cameras and video borescopes. Inspections include: boiler fittings for security, boiler feet for cracks and distortion. Pipe Inspection Cameras and Video Borescopes can be used to inspect the internal condition of boilers tubes. A boiler needs to periodically have its cooling tubes checked for imperfections. a pipe inspection camera or video borescope can be inserted into the boiler tube and pushed the length of the tube. The pipe inspection camera or video borescope can record the condition. A boiler tube needs to be checked for erosion, scale, blockage, cracking, corrosion, pitting and other defects.
