Olympus IPLEX MX
IPLEX MX System
Bringing freedom to your
inspections
The IPLEX MX is a lightweight, ultra compact videoscope system
which uses an internal battery as the first power option, resulting
in new levels of portability.
The IPLEX MX is also the first videoscope to feature LED technology
in a 6mm diameter insertion tube, which is coupled to the renowned
precision and quality of Olympus optics to provide bright, high
resolution images.
Maximum mobility
The IPLEX MX has been designed to carry to the
inspection site with just a shoulder strap. At just 10lbs (4.4kg),
body mounting the MX during the entire inspection is a real and
safe possibility - it's that mobile!
Extended battery operation
Now you don't have to worry about interruptions or delays even when
doing long inspections. The IPLEX MX uses a large capacity, yet
lightweight and compact rechargeable Lithium-ion battery providing
2 hours continuous operation. This can be doubled when using an
optional external battery kit.
Digital image recording
Up to 230 digital images (JPEG format) can be recorded on the
provided 32Mb Compact Flash card. Images can be quickly transferred
to the PC for full and immediate viewing. The IPLEX Manager
software provides a powerful image management platform, including
report writing capability and image annotation.
Advanced specifications meet all your
needs
With its 6.0mm diameter insertion tube and 4-way articulation
capability, the MX is ideal for almost any inspection requirement.
That versatility is supported by an extensive array of in-demand
functions including freeze, electronic zoom, extended exposure and
digital image recording. A monochrome boost mode is also
incorporated to further increase image sensitivity - ideal for low
light level conditions.
