Rugged Durability
The durability and environmental resistance of the IPLEX LX and LT provides exceptional reliability even
in the harshest environments. Whether you’re conducting inspections outdoors in a variety of weather
conditions, in a dusty or sandy climate, or in manufacturing areas, you can depend on the IPLEX LX and LT
to function reliably in any surroundings.
All Weather Resistance
You can confidently bring the IPLEX LX and LT to almost any
difficult environment. They can be used in rain, sand, and
dust, and withstand physical shocks caused by drops and
falls, ensured by IP55 and MIL-STD compliance. With its
low-reflection display, the daylight-view monitor reproduces
clear, vivid images even under the brightest sunlight.

Impervious to Environmental hazards
Complying with internationally recognized military standards
(MIL-STD-810G / MIL-STD-461F)*, the IPLEX LX and LT pass a
wide variety of environmental hazard tests, including blowing
rain, humidity, salt fog, sand and dust, icing/
freezing rain, and explosive atmosphere. They also
withstand rough treatment such as vibration and
being dropped from heights up to 1.2 m (3.9 ft).

Resistance to high Temperatures
and Abrasion
The insertion tubes of the IPLEX LX** withstand
temperatures up to 100 ºC (212 °F). A high-
temperature sensor cautions with an audible
beep and displays a visual warning if the scope
is in danger of becoming overheated.
The crush-proof insertion tubes of the IPLEX LX and LT are equipped
with an innovative fine mesh tungsten outer braid that results in
outstanding abrasion resistance. The tube’s strength combined with
its flexibility allows operation in the most difficult and hazardous
inspection areas.
The IPLEX LX and LT are designed with the unique Tapered Flex™
achieving superb scope maneuverability with optimized stiffness
and flexibility. In addition, the increased stiffness of the new
8.5 mm scope allows it to be easily pushed deep into an inspection
area without the use of a guide tube, making it ideal for long pipe
inspections.
** The IPLEX LX IV88100L1 withstands temperatures up to 80 ºC (176 °F).
