Full HD Pan-Tilt-Zoom Inspection Camera: INVIZx98

Digital inspection camera for large-volume vessels, tanks and reactors

The INVIZx98 from viZaar is a next-generation Full HD pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera designed for precise remote visual inspections (RVI) and non-destructive testing (NDT) in large industrial components. Engineered for 360° visibility and high-intensity illumination,  it delivers crystal-clear imaging even in confined or submerged environments.

With a compact Ø 98 mm diameter and rugged titanium housing, the INVIZx98 ensures maximum durability and lightweight handling, ideal for inspections in tanks, reactors, and vessels where space is limited but precision is critical.

For applications where minimal weight and reduced surface contamination are critical, the INVIZx98 is also available in a hard-anodized aluminum version (INVIZx98 Al), providing a lightweight alternative without compromising performance.

Detect defects, corrosion, and critical irregularities with unprecedented accuracy, thanks to the camera’s lossless data capture and the elimination of error-prone image scaling. Take your non-destructive testing (NDT) to the next level with the clarity and reliability only the INVIZx98 can provide.

New Era

The Path to Automation

With endless 360° rotation and a 330° tilt range (±165°), the INVIZx98 provides a comprehensive all-around view. The home position and other preset positions can be reached in under 2 seconds, enabling fast responses and saving valuable time during inspections.

Thanks to the 10x optical zoom and advanced 1/2.8″ CMOS Sony® IMX® sensor technology, users maintain full control over every detail. Features like position memory and customizable zero-point calibration enhance orientation inside vessels and support operators in repeated inspection tasks.

These capabilities streamline workflows. boost efficiency and enable repeatable complex inspection scenarios.

Powerful Illumination

Precision Lighting for Demanding Environments

A high-performance dual white-light LED system ensures optimal illumination, with almost continuously adjustable brightness and a total output of up to 2,000 lumens in Turbo Mode. Each LED ring can be controlled independently, allowing for customized lighting setups tailored to specific inspection needs.

By intentionally casting shadows, surface irregularities such as scratches, cracks, or indentations can be highlighted with high contrast. For cleanliness inspections, a 365 nm UV lighting option is also available upon request.

For specialized applications, the system can be expanded with an optional laser unit or a high-intensity LED boost module.

Titanium or Aluminium

The right choice for your inspection

The industrial inspection camera INVIZx98 features a Grade 5 titanium housing – the same high‑performance material used in aerospace applications. It delivers outstanding strength, durability, and reliability, making the INVIZx98 Ti a true lightweight powerhouse at only 1,900 g.

Designed for extreme inspection environments, the titanium version is water‑resistant up to 60 m (6 bar) and resistant to saltwater, acids, alkalis, and solvents, ensuring long‑term performance in demanding industrial conditions.

When absolute weight reduction or surface cleanliness is essential, the INVIZx98 Al is the perfect choice. Its hard‑anodized aluminium housing brings the weight down to just 1,400 g and minimizes surface contamination, making it ideal for use in chemical processing, aerospace maintenance, and food production
