SeeSnake microREEL APX, microDRAIN APX, and CSx Via Kit Support

The RIDGID® SeeSnake® microREEL™ APX™ and CSx Via™, and the microDRAIN™ APX™ and CSx Via™ kits, deliver easy-to-use inspection systems that are as compact as they are capable.

The microREEL APX features a stiffer push cable and a 25 mm [1 in] camera head, making it ideal for inspecting longer runs in pipes 38 mm to 102 mm [1.5 in to 4 in]. It is equipped with TruSense® technology, providing advanced in-pipe diagnostics.

The microDRAIN APX, on the other hand, is specifically designed for smaller pipes and conduits. Its advanced push cable and small-diameter camera allow inspection through tight-radius bends and P-traps, areas often inaccessible to standard systems. The built-in sonde in the microDRAIN APX camera head enables precise locating of problem areas within the pipe.

Both reels integrate seamlessly with the CSx Via—a “bring-your-own-screen” solution for plumbing inspections. The CSx Via mounts onto either reel and connects to your mobile device via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Using the HQx Live app on iOS™ or Android™ devices, or SeeSnake HQ Software for Windows®, you can stream, capture, and share inspection media in real-time. This makes it simple to adapt to your workflow and deliver efficient diagnostics on-site.

By combining the compact power of the microREEL APX or microDRAIN APX with the flexibility of the CSx Via and the intuitive capabilities of HQx Live, these kits offer everything needed for high-quality, mobile-friendly inspections.

When connected to a SeeSnake CSx series device, both reels automatically flip your onscreen image as the camera rotates through the pipe, ensuring the image remains oriented upright.
