Vizaar Vuflex videoscope
With a width of only 2.4 millimetres and high-performance LED illumination, the sword-shaped VUFLEX video endoscope is a thin videoscope which is ideal for the visual inspection of heat exchangers, turbines and steam generators.
VUFLEX – the thin videoscope at one glance
The special camera for steam generator inspections
Challenging tasks such as the maintenance of sensitive areas, e.g. in nuclear power plants, require reliable and smart inspection solutions. The VUFLEX was developed especially for the visual inspection of tube bundles in steam generators. With its small dimensions and its flexibility, the VUFLEX can be easily manoeuvred between the tubes. With the slightly downward inclined camera head, which can even be swivelled depending on the model, you can easily inspect the spaces between tubes and transition areas to pipe discs in steam generators. The high-performance LED illumination is ideal for brightly illuminating the entire inspection area.
VUFLEX – Ultra-Thin Videoscope with Unmatched Flexibility
The VUFLEX sets a new standard in ultra-thin inspection cameras. Its slimmest version measures just 2.4 mm, while even the largest is only 6.5 mm in diameter. Thanks to its unique construction, the VUFLEX is vertically rigid yet horizontally extremely flexible, allowing precise navigation in confined spaces. Industry-leading optics, high-performance image sensors, and a dual high-intensity LED illumination system deliver crystal-clear imaging for even the most demanding inspections.
Precision Imaging with Long Exposure Control
Reaching critical inspection points isn’t always straightforward. That’s why the VUFLEX features an adjustable exposure time from 1/50 s up to 6 s, enabling clear visualization of defects at distances up to one meter—even between the tubes of steam generators or other complex structures.
Standard and Custom Solutions
The VUFLEX S is our ready-to-use standard model, ideal for condition monitoring applications where optical performance is crucial. Every VUFLEX can also be customized to your specific needs, ensuring optimal results for specialized inspection challenges.

The secure thin videoscope for sensitive environments
Our thin videoscope VUFLEX is a single piece construction without joint between head and band. While thin videoscopes made by other manufacturers often show a partial or even full head detachment, you will never have this problem with our VUFLEX. Avoid the risk of leaving foreign objects in the inspection area caused by head detachment. During the development of our thin videoscope, we decided that we must create a thin camera system that will not leave any parts in your application. Therefore, our VUFLEX is a thin, wear-optimized videoscope made of a single piece of stainless steel.
The VUFLEX is a special endoscope for the inspection of pipes, pipe lanes, spaces between tubes and transition areas to pipe discs.
The VUFLEX is especially convincing in the following fields:
- Steam generator inspections in power plants and nuclear facilities
- Inspections of tube bundles
- Testing of tube bundle heat exchangers
