PIPELINE CRAWLERS • PORTABLE X-RAY BETATRON • DIGITAL RADIOGRAPHY
The JME:PBU provides a lightweight/mobile power solution for devices intended to run on 230V/16A.
Proven and tested with the JME 2.5meV (1kW) Betatron and COMET EVO/ECO range to provide over 1.5 hours of X-Ray time (900W). This will also power a 6/7.5MJ Betatron for more than a full duty cycle (45 minutes).
The PBU removes the need for flammable liquids on site for use with generators, reduces overall deployment weight, improves access to hard to reach and hazardous locations, while removing the need for maintenance and risk of unplanned break downs.
Enabling improved deployment with stable and clean power, producing no noise or environmental emissions the PBU is suited for: Powering pipeline crawler chargers, XRay tube run-in without loading the battery of the Pipeline Crawler’, Dark Room back up and Powering auxiliary operations such as DXB:1 system charging, and much more.

TRANSPORT INFORMATION |
|
![]() |
TRANSPORT mode isolates all of the battery modules from each other, and the unit can be transported in accordance with SP188 The PBU has a modular structure, whereby each single battery module has an energy content of 86.4Wh. If the unit is going to be transported, it must be put into TRANSPORT mode. To do this, move the rotary switch all the way to the left to the padlock symbol, as shown in the illustration. This results in all the battery modules in the unit being separated from each other, and the cover of the PBU therefore constitutes packaging for individual battery modules with less than 100Wh. The unit may be transported in accordance with SP188 in this mode. |
