Rausch mC80 long-reach push camera inspection system

Rausch mC80 Long-Reach Push Camera System

Long-distance axial pipe inspection with a 130 m pushrod platform.

The Rausch mC80 is the long-reach push-camera platform in the mC range, designed for extended pipe runs and manhole-to-manhole inspection. Its 130 m / 11.2 mm pushrod provides substantially greater inspection distance than the mC30 and mC50, while the modular mC platform allows the system to be configured around camera and locating requirements.

Built for Long-Distance Pipe Inspection

The mC80 is designed for inspection work where reach is the priority. Its 130 m / 11.2 mm pushrod is the longest standard axial pushrod configuration in the Rausch mC range.

This makes the platform particularly suited to extended pipe runs and manhole-to-manhole inspection where a 30 m, 60 m or 90 m system would not provide sufficient inspection distance.

Camera Options Across the Rausch mC Range

The standard mC80 uses the KK55SL, while alternative mC camera heads can be specified for different inspection and locating requirements. Camera suitability depends on the complete reel, pushrod and pipe configuration.

Important:
The minimum pipe diameter for the complete inspection system is determined by the camera head, pushrod and overall configuration — not camera diameter alone. Rausch UK can confirm the appropriate mC80 configuration for your application.

1

Camera & Locating Options

Select the appropriate compatible mC camera configuration, including self-levelling and locating-sonde options where required.

2

Monitor Options

The standard 8" TFT8R monitor is available with or without an integrated keyboard depending on your operating and reporting requirements.

3

WiFi & Power

Optional WiFi, spare battery and mC Series powerbank options are available for greater flexibility on site.

4

Mobility & Camera Guidance

Trolley equipment, handles, spacers and roller-skid options can help transport the larger system and support camera positioning in larger pipes.

Is the mC80 Right for Your Inspection?

The mC80 is primarily about reach. If your inspection distances do not justify a 130 m reel, a smaller platform may be easier to transport and use.

Shorter inspections

Consider the mC50

If 60 m or 90 m is sufficient, the mC50 provides a smaller professional platform while retaining modular mC camera options.

Maximum axial reach

Choose the mC80

Choose the mC80 where inspection runs regularly exceed the capability of the mC50 and you need up to 130 m of axial push-camera inspection.

Consider mC360

If pan-and-tilt inspection is more important than maximum axial inspection distance, an mC360 system may be the more appropriate platform.

Rausch mC80 FAQs

Key information about the long-reach mC80 platform and its configuration.

How far can the Rausch mC80 inspect?

The mC80 uses a 130 m / 11.2 mm pushrod, making it the longest-distance axial push-camera platform in the Rausch mC range.

What pipe size can the standard mC80 inspect?

With the standard 55 mm KK55SL camera, the mC80 is specified for inspection from 70 mm pipe diameter.

Can the mC80 negotiate 90° bends?

In the standard KK55SL and 130 m configuration, the mC80 is specified for negotiating 90° bends from 100 mm diameter.

What camera comes with the standard mC80?

The standard mC80 set uses the 55 mm KK55SL self-levelling axial camera.

Can different camera heads be used with the mC80?

The mC80 is part of the modular Rausch mC platform. Alternative camera configurations can be specified depending on the reel, pushrod, pipe diameter and inspection requirements.

Can the mC80 use a locating sonde?

Yes. Sonde-equipped mC camera configurations are available, together with non-sonde camera options.

What is the difference between the mC50 and mC80?

The main difference is inspection reach. The mC50 is available with 60 m or 90 m of 9.2 mm pushrod, while the mC80 uses 130 m of 11.2 mm pushrod for substantially longer inspection runs.

What monitor comes with the mC80?

The standard mC80 uses the 8" TFT8R monitor, which records video, photographs and audio. A TFT8R version with an integrated keyboard is also available.
