help General Tools DCS-800UV FAQ

What is the General Tools DCS-800UV used to inspect?

It is designed for visual checks inside confined or inaccessible spaces. The flexible probe can help inspect areas such as machinery, pipes, cavities, or other places that are difficult to view directly.

Does the DCS-800UV use UV light as a blacklight or as night vision?

Its integrated UV lighting is intended to make fluorescent dye or residue visible when such material is present. It is not a thermal camera and does not produce a temperature map.

Can the DCS-800UV probe reach around corners?

The camera uses a flexible probe that can be guided through confined spaces and around limited bends. Flexibility does not mean it can be sharply folded, so the manufacturer's bend limits should be followed.

Is the General Tools DCS-800UV a thermal inspection camera?

No. The DCS-800UV is a digital inspection camera with visible and ultraviolet lighting, so it shows images rather than infrared temperature readings.
