Directional Arm Upgrade
For Cobra Users that have inspection requirements at an angle to the back of the van, e.g. lines in easements that cannot be accessed directly, Cobra has developed a directional arm that can be added to the Main Line Reel in a Cobra Inspection System. The cable guide at the end of the arm can be fixed at several angles allowing inspections at up to a 90° angle from the back of the inspection vehicle.
To add this upgrade to your existing Cobra Main Line Reel contact cobra with the width between the Reel frame bars.
