Abstract

A machine for inspecting the inside of a reactor pressure vessel, under water, comprises a central mast supported by a tripod from the top flange of a reactor pressure vessel. The mast is provided with vertical movement by cable and guide rails and has a variety of moving arms with centralising and guiding devices which can carry television cameras, ultra-sonic probes etc. and which have hydraulic position indication. The indicators do not distort the signals from the television cameras.
