Introduction

The Aries BT9700 camera inspects waterwell and borehole walls between four and

twenty-four inches in diameter. The viewing module is articulated and pivots

between down view and side view with the press of a button. Camera also has

zoom and tilt capabilities in both down view and side view. It provides a 360º

continuous viewing capability for inspecting casing welds, perforations and open

borehole geological strata. The camera is suspended from an industry standard

Gearhart-Owens single conductor threaded connector. It is compatible with some

other manufacturers’ water well inspection and geophysical logging systems. Contact

Aries before connecting BT9700 to other systems.

A dual viewing camera is a precision photographic tool built to work in harsh

environments. Careful handling and good housekeeping reduces excessive wear,

breakage, downtime andexpensive repairs.

CAUTION: HANDLE WITH CARE

A. Do not hit bump, or drag the dual viewing camera housing and lighthead

assemblies against the water well casing, well head, or bottom of the well.

B. On a weekly basis inspect camera, connectors, O-rings and lighthead

assemblies for wearand tightness.

ATTENTION

Reduce Your Camera Repair Costs and

Downtime

Reasonable and cautious handling of the dual viewing camera and lighthead

assemblies while inserting and removing from water wells or boreholes greatly

reduces damage.

Reduce camera drag in bending or angular drilled well/boreholes with proper use of

the centralizer assembly.
