A property assessment system is provided to assess a property for various purposes. The system includes a property assessment apparatus configured to be inserted into any space of a property and retrieved therefrom once necessary information is collected from the space. The property assessment apparatus operates to monitor various conditions in the space, which is used to assess the property.

MOBILE SYSTEM FOR PIPE REHABILITATION

In a mobile system for pipe rehabilitation, a tractor moves a motorized electrical cutter inside a pipe. The cutter is used to remove a blockage from a branch conduit connected to the main pipe. A power management system powers the mobile system, including the cutter, from a direct current power source with an input current having a voltage less than 60V. The power management system powers the electrical cutter by discharging current from the supercapacitor module to the cutter. Power to other components is provided without discharge from the supercapacitor module and is not interrupted by supercapacitor discharge to the cutter. The power management system can include a housing for the supercapacitor module with a first connector at one end for connecting to an umbilical cord and a second connector an opposite end for connecting to the tractor.

Curing Device Comprising a Lamp that Produces UV Light

The invention relates to a curing apparatus having at least one UV module (3), wherein the UV module (3) has at least one UV light source (6) for irradiating the inner wall of a pipe (1), wherein the UV module (3) that has been introduced into the pipe (1) is connected, by means of a cable (7), to a control device (9) that is situated outside of the pipe (1). It is an object of the invention to provide a curing apparatus in which the cable (7) for connecting the UV modules (3) to the control device (9) has a cross section that is reduced in comparison with the prior art. As a result, longer pipeline portions should be able to be renovated in one piece. Moreover, the electrical power losses in the cable (7) should be reduced. To this end, the invention suggests that at least one operating appliance (10) that is connected to the cable (7) and the UV light source (6) is arranged at each UV module (3), wherein the control device (9) actuates the operating appliance (10) by way of the cable (7) for the purposes of operating the UV light source (6).
