AVANTI INTERNATIONALWidely recognized as the thinnest

product on the market, AV-100 is an ultra-low viscosity, chemically reactive gel that is available as either granules or liquid, and has the same viscosity as water. AV-100 can permeate anywhere water can

travel and cures within a controllable time — anywhere from 5 seconds to ±10 hours. Once cured, AV-100 creates an ef-fective, long-lasting water barrier while providing superb soil stabilization. AV-100 is used to rehabilitate and sustain municipal sanitary sewer collection sys-tems, eliminating infiltration in manholes, sanitary and storm sewer mainlines, joints and laterals and various other un-derground structures by stabilizing exter-nal substrate. By eliminating infiltration, there is a reduction in excess flow to wastewater treatments plants, a decrease in treatment costs and an extension in the life expectancy of our underground

PRO-RING is the most advanced con-crete-alternative manhole and catch ba-sin grade adjustment system available anywhere. Available in round, square and

rectangular, these rings are manufactured from Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) which is renowned for its exceptional strength to weight ratio, durability, chem-ical resistance and long service life under harsh conditions. One person can install the PRO-RING system in just minutes to within a quarter inch of finished grade and they are watertight. Where concrete rings break and may cause injury, the PRO-RING system eliminates the hazard, helping minimize the risk of injury. A 6-in. PRO-RING weighs 14 lbs and stands up to all kinds of physical abuse. The PRO-RING system speeds manhole installation and repair time. Manhole repair sites can be opened, repaired and closed in one day, reducing overall costs from 20 to 30 percent, based on conditions. Angle rings are available to match slopes, which elim-inates the need for mortar and shimming. Visit cretexeals.com or call 800-345-3764. Booth #1319

CUES INC.The CUES Lat-

eral and Mainline Probe II (LAMP II) can be used to remedy potential crossbore risks and to aid in lo-cating buried assets. The LAMP II is an inspection tool for identifying infiltration and inflow, potential crossbores, pipe defects, and structural conditions in lat-eral services and mainlines. The LAMP II with the optional Mini Pan & Tilt Camera will inspect laterals services and traverse multiple bends and wyes when deployed with or against the flow. Mainline inspec-tion is accomplished with a pan, tilt and 40:1 zoom camera. The LAMP II can pull 1,000 ft video cable, reducing traffic control expenses while increasing pro-

duction, and launch 150 ft or more into the lateral. The Mini Pan & Tilt Camera includes a detachable steering wand, self-leveling camera head, built-in lens wiper, 360 degrees pan and tilt, four banks of LED’s with variable light intensity, and a built in sonde with switchable frequen-cies.

DUKE’S ROOT CONTROLDuke’s Root Control does it all, pro-

viding the best chemical root control product available, applied by the most professional crews in the industry. Ra-zorooter II is the only diquat-based her-

bicide registered by the U.S. EPA for controlling nuisance tree roots in sani-tary sewer line collection systems and received a classification of “evidence of non-carcinogenicity for humans” (USEPA Diquat R.E.D. Facts, July 1995). In 2014, the EPA further approved an amendment of Duke’s diquat dibromide labels to lower the signal word from “warning” to “caution.” Our crews insert a hose from manhole to manhole, preparing to fill the affected sewer pipe with Razorooter II. The foam is then released, compressing against pipe surfaces, penetrating cracks, joints and connecting sewers. Roots are killed on contact, decay naturally and slough away. Duke’s applications prevent root-related stoppages for 2-3 years. We guarantee it. Visit dukes.com or call 800-447-6687. Booth #4011

ELECTRO SCAN INC.Electro Scan has become the nation-

wide standard for testing and certifying trenchless rehabilitation projects. Specifi-cally designed to certify cured-in-place pipe (CIPP), fiberglass reinforced pipe (FRP), high-density polyethylene pipe (HDPE), spiral wound pipe (SRP), and point repairs, including short liner CIPP, Electro Scanning Inspection locates and quantifies all leaks from accidental cuts, bad service reconnections, overcooked liners, poorly cured pipes, and faulty

resins that leak -- typi-cally missed by CCTV or visual inspec-tion. According to the newly p u b l i s h e d , “7th Edition. Volume 1, OPERATION AND MAINTE-NANCE OF WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEMS” manual, Electro Scanning In-spection is recommended for all pre-and post-rehabilitation to quantify reductions in flow by individual defect and for total pipe segments. Municipal agencies may either contract for professional services — directly from the company — or pur-chase equipment as an add-on to existing CCTV truck or van to conduct its own independent certification of trenchless repairs, rehabilitation or new construc-tion. Booth #2906

ENVIROSIGHTThe new cable-free Quickview airHD

camera captures high-definition (HD) video from sewers, and transmits it wire-lessly to a touchscreen tablet for live viewing. With the Quickview app in-stalled, the tablet offers fingertip control of zoom, illumination, and tilt, as well as image capture and video recording/playback/annotation/sharing. And be-

cause the camera has motorized tilt, as well as in-manhole centering capability and hands-free stabilization, set-up takes virtually no time at all, and both the op-erator’s hands remain free to operate the tablet. At the heart of the new Quickview airHD is an HD zoom camera with 30X optical zoom (plus 12X digital) paired with Envirosight’s new Quad-Haloptic light engine. The camera is tuned to de-liver maximum detail from within pipes, and the light engine combines four offset LED/reflector pairs to surround the cam-era with powerful, focused illumination that is perfectly aligned for maximum range and optimum viewing at any dis-tance.

SEALING SYSTEMS INC.Infi-Shield Gator Wrap prevents infil-

tration and erosion by providing a water-tight seal around any manhole, catch ba-sin or pipe joint. Infi-Shield Gator Wrap resists harsh soil conditions and also

provides a root barrier for any crack or joint. Infi-Shield Gator Wrap is made of a stretchable, self-shrinking, intra-curing halogenated based rubber. The backside of each seal is coated with a cross-linked re-enforced butyl adhesive. The seal is designed to stretch around the joint and then overlapped creating a cross-link and fused bond between the rubber and butyl adhesive. Infi-Shield Gator Wrap in-stalls easily with no special tools and can be immediately backfilled. For more in-formation, call 800-478-2054, email [email protected] or visit ssisealing-systems.com.

SEWPERCOAT

SewperCoat is a technological breakthrough in cementitious material designed specifically for the munici-pal wastewater industry to provide a structural, abrasion and corrosion-resistant, protective lining against bio-genic corrosion relative to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) found in wastewater environments. The unique mineralogy of SewperCoat is the key to its ulti-mate performance. Both the cement and aggregate in SewperCoat are 100 percent pure fused calcium aluminate. This provides a level of protection that other CA based mortars with a natu-ral aggregate system simply cannot achieve. SewperCoat is used through-out the world for rehabilitating struc-tures such as manholes, wet wells, lift stations, pipe networks, and treatment plant structures. In addition, Sewper-Coat is also used to line new structures where corrosion protection is neces-

sary from day one. For structure appli-cations, SewperCoat can be applied by either the low-pressure, wet-spray pro-cess or the high-velocity, dry-gunite method. For pipelines, SewperCoat can be applied insitu by dry-gunite or spin casting. Booth #1307

XYLEMThe Godwin Dri-Prime Backup Sys-

tem (DBS)from Xylem provides peace-of-mind as the ideal contingency plan for pump stations. The DBS provides independently powered backup pump-ing in one dependable package for a va-riety of emergency situations. It is used during routine pump service and main-tenance or unexpected pump failure. It is also ideal for areas prone to hur-ricanes, heavy rain or snowmelt, and is automatically engaged during loss of

primary power (whether from a sched-uled outage or from a weather event) or switch gear failure. The DBS solution from Godwin uses a permanently in-stalled diesel driven pump to provide backup pumping capacity, instead of just backup power. Booth #2529
