New Multi-Purpose Borescopes with UV and White Light LEDs
Spectronics
Corporation has recently introduced the COBRA™
and COBRA-Plus™,
part of the COBRA™ series of multi-purpose borescopes. Both
scopes feature a built-in UV LED and white light LED that enable
technicians to inspect and leak check hard-to-see components
without expensive disassembly.
The UV LED is ideal for detecting refrigerant leaks, fluid leaks
and surface flaws, while the white light LED is great for component
inspection.
The CB-1000 COBRA™ has a 10mm, 24” shaft, while the
CB-1036 COBRA-Plus™ has a 10mm, extra-long 36” shaft
for inspections requiring additional reach.
Included with both scopes is a clip-on inspection mirror which provides
the added capability to detect flaws normally hidden from view.
Four “AA” alkaline batteries (included) power the two
service-free, integrated solid-state LEDs. Fluorescence-enhancing
glasses for use with UV light and fluorescent leak detection dyes
are also included. Dyes are sold separately. All components are
packed in a sturdy plastic carrying case with a foam insert.
