Rausch Omicron CCTV Inspection System
One mobile Full HD platform for push-camera, crawler and combined inspection.
The Rausch Omicron is a professional mobile CCTV inspection platform that can be configured for push-camera work, crawler inspection or both. Built around the Rausch-Tab control system, Omicron gives contractors a flexible route from professional Full HD push inspection through to powered mainline crawler surveys without moving to a full vehicle installation.

Professional Control & Inspection Software
Omicron is built around the Rausch-Tab control platform, providing system control, inspection viewing and documentation from one mobile unit. Inspection software can then be configured around the reporting requirements of the operator.
Rausch-Tab
Rausch-Tab is the mobile control and computing platform for Omicron, bringing crawler and camera operation, inspection viewing, documentation and software capability into one unit.

Camera Options & Crawler Configuration
Omicron is not limited to one camera head. The platform can be configured around the type of inspection being carried out, including Full HD pan-and-tilt inspection and compatible axial camera configurations.
KS60 HD2
The Full HD KS60 HD2 provides controllable pan-and-tilt viewing for detailed inspection of pipe walls, joints, connections and defects.

Compatible Axial Cameras
Omicron can also be configured with compatible Rausch axial camera heads where a fixed forward view is more appropriate than pan-and-tilt inspection or where a different camera diameter is required.

Camera compatibility depends on the Omicron configuration, cable or pushrod setup and application. Rausch UK can specify the appropriate axial or pan-and-tilt camera arrangement for the inspection work being carried out.

One Platform for Push & Crawler Inspection
Omicron Push & Drive is aimed at contractors who do not want separate control platforms for push-camera and powered crawler work.
The crawler configuration can be supplemented with an exchange push basket and 60 m push cable, allowing the Rausch-Tab and Omicron platform to move between the two inspection methods.
See the Omicron Camera Configurations
Omicron can be set up around different inspection requirements rather than being limited to one fixed camera head. This video shows how different camera arrangements can be used with the platform, including pan-and-tilt and axial inspection configurations.
Modular camera platform: the appropriate camera arrangement depends on the inspection method, pipe size, viewing requirements and Omicron configuration.
Which Omicron Configuration Is Right for You?
The right Omicron depends primarily on whether your work is push-camera, crawler or a combination of both.
Push work
Choose Omicron Push
For professional Full HD push-camera inspection where pan-and-tilt viewing and a 60 m standard UK push cable meet your requirements.
Hazardous application
Choose Omicron Push EX
Where suitable push-camera inspection must be carried out using an appropriately specified explosion-protected system.
Mainline crawler
Choose Omicron Drive
For powered mainline inspection using the FW90 crawler, KS60 HD2 camera and standard 150 m UK camera cable.
Both types of work
Choose Push & Drive
For contractors who regularly carry out both push-camera and crawler surveys and want both functions from one mobile platform.
Rausch Omicron FAQs
Key information about Omicron Push, Drive and combined inspection configurations.
What is the Rausch Omicron?
Omicron is a mobile Full HD CCTV inspection platform that can be configured for professional push-camera inspection, powered crawler inspection or both from the same platform.
What Omicron configurations does Rausch UK offer?
Rausch UK offers Omicron Push, Omicron Push EX, Omicron Drive and combined Omicron Push & Drive configurations. The appropriate system depends on the type of inspection work being carried out.
How long is the standard Omicron Push cable?
The standard Rausch UK Omicron Push configuration uses a 60 m push cable.
Which camera comes with Omicron Push?
The standard Rausch UK Omicron Push configuration uses the Full HD KS60 HD2 pan-and-tilt camera. Compatible axial camera arrangements can also be considered where the application requires a different viewing method.
Which crawler comes with Omicron Drive?
The standard Rausch UK Omicron Drive configuration uses the FW90 powered crawler together with the KS60 HD2 Full HD camera and 150 m camera cable.
What pipe sizes can Omicron Drive inspect?
The FW90 crawler used with the standard Rausch UK Omicron Drive configuration is designed for mainline inspection from approximately DN100 to DN600.
What is the difference between Omicron Drive and Cubix 300?
Omicron Drive is a compact mobile crawler configuration based around the FW90 and is particularly suited where portability is important or where push-camera and crawler capability are required from the same platform. Cubix 300 is a dedicated mobile crawler platform with up to 300 m of camera cable and can be configured with either the FW90 or larger FW135 crawler. This gives Cubix greater scope for longer inspection distances, larger pipe diameters and additional system expansion. View the Cubix 300 system →
Can one Omicron do both push and crawler inspection?
Yes. Omicron Push & Drive combines the crawler configuration with an exchange push basket and push cable, allowing both inspection methods to operate from the same Omicron and Rausch-Tab platform.
Is an explosion-protected Omicron available?
Yes. Omicron Push EX is available for suitable hazardous-area applications. The exact equipment configuration and certification requirements should be confirmed for the intended working environment.
Can Omicron use PipeCommander?
Yes. The Rausch-Tab can be expanded with PipeCommander inspection software for structured inspection recording, defect documentation, project management and reporting.
Can I arrange an Omicron demonstration?
Yes. Tell Rausch UK whether your work is primarily push-camera inspection, crawler inspection or a combination of both. We can help specify the appropriate Omicron configuration and arrange a UK demonstration.
Omicron or Cubix 300?
Both provide professional Rausch crawler inspection, but they are designed around different ways of working. The right choice depends on portability, inspection distance, pipe diameter and how far you want the system to expand.

Not sure which platform fits your work?
Start with the pipe diameters, inspection distances and whether you need push-camera capability as well as crawler inspection. Rausch UK can then help match the application to the appropriate platform.
*Maximum pipe capability depends on the Cubix crawler and accessory configuration. FW135 has a standard range up to DN1600, with suitable Lafette configurations extending capability up to DN3000.
