	Scorpion DCP & BP
	A magnetically attached, non encoded, remote access crawler with a dry coupled ultrasonic wheel probe designed to allow cost effective Ultrasonic thickness measurements on above ground ferro-magnetic structures.

The Scorpion DCP remote access crawler uses a unique “Dry Coupled” wheel probe eliminating the need for traditional couplant. This allows the crawler to travel vertically, horizontally or even inverted whilst still fully functional. Compatible with ANY ultrasonic system, a 50 metre umbilical cable allows access to the furthest point of most structures without the need for scaffolding.

Powered by the Sitemaster 30 battery pack, the system is capable of 8 hours continuous operation on a single charge.
