DESCRIPTION
TRF 500 is an Industrial-Robot from TARIS. It is built for Construction, Data Collection, Inspection. Key figures: 600 min runtime.
TRF 500 is TARIS's universal autonomous robot for pipeline maintenance, combining rope or cable pulling with video inspection in pipelines from 530 mm in diameter and up to 7 km long. It is aimed at the oil and gas, petrochemical, utility and building-services sectors, where it delivers a rope or cable to its destination while recording the pipe interior; TARIS cites pulling a steel rope through a 2,100 m siphon of a DN 500 trunk pipeline. Its compact stainless-steel transport module has drive on all four wheels, a front Full HD camera and a rear camera, external lighting, a special hitch, a radio antenna and optional external sensors, and is sealed by nitrogen pressurisation; it can be built explosion-proof. Interchangeable wheels of 200, 250 and 355 mm and axle spacers fit it to the pipe. A removable LiFePO4 battery, which keeps its properties down to -30 C and is not a fire or explosion hazard, gives up to 10 hours of autonomous operation and up to 10 km of travel. It can run fully autonomously, recording video and tilt and roll data on board, or be controlled by radio or by cable: up to 3 km with standard logging cable or 7 km with TARIS's light G6 cable in a dry pipe.
