Tool and Work Area
Set-Up
WARNING
Set up the micro CA-150 In spec tion Cam -
era and work area according to these
procedures to reduce the risk of injury
from electrical shock, entanglement and
other causes and prevent tool and sys-
tem damage.
1. Check work area for:
• Adequate lighting
• Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that
may ignite. If present, do not work in
area until sources have been identified
and corrected. The micro CA-150 In -
spection Camera is not explosion proof
and can cause sparks.
• Clear, level, stable, dry place for opera-
tor. Do not use the inspection camera
while standing in water.
2. Examine the area or space that you will
be inspecting and determine if the micro
CA-150 Inspection Camera is the cor-
rect piece of equipment for the job.
• Determine the access points to the
space. The minimum opening the cam -
era head can fit through is approximate -
ly
3
/
" (19mm) in diameter for the 17mm
4
camera head.
• Determine the distance to the area to
be inspected. Extensions can be add -
ed to the camera to reach up to 30'
(9m).
• Determine if there are any obstacles
that would require very tight turns in
the cable. The inspection camera ca ble
can go down to a 2" (50mm) radius
without damage.
• Determine if there is any electrical pow -
er supplied to the area to be inspected.
If so, the power to the area must be
micro CA-150 Inspection Camera
turned off to reduce the risk of electric
shock. Use appropriate lock out proce-
dures to prevent the power from being
turned back on during the inspection.
• Determine if any liquids will be encoun-
tered during the inspection. The cable
and imager head are waterproof to a
depth of 10' (3m). Greater depths may
cause leakage into the cable and im-
ager and cause electric shock or dam-
age the equipment. The handheld dis-
play unit is not water resistant and
should not be exposed to wet condi-
tions.
• Determine if any chemicals are present,
especially in the case of drains. It is im-
portant to understand the specific safety
measures required to work around any
chemicals present. Contact the chemical
manufacturer for required information.
Chemicals may damage or degrade the
inspection camera.
• Determine the temperature of the area
and items in the area. The working tem-
perature of the inspection camera is
between 32 and 122 degrees F (0°C -
50°C). Use in areas outside of this
range or contact with hotter or colder
items could cause camera damage.
• Determine if any moving parts are pres-
ent in the area to be inspected. If so,
these parts must be deactivated to pre-
vent movement during inspection to
reduce the risk of entanglement. Use
appropriate lock out procedures to pre-
vent the parts from moving during the
inspection.
If the micro CA-150 Inspection Camera is not
the correct piece of equipment for the job,
other inspection equipment is available from
RIDGID. For a complete listing of RIDGID
pro ducts, see the RIDGID catalog, online at
www.RIDGID.com.
3. Make sure the micro CA-150 Inspec tion
Camera has been properly inspect ed
before each use.
4. Install the correct accessories for the ap-
plication.
