DW 1500 & 2000 winches
Compatible with the R-CAM dual view camera and SC-166 slim line camera, the DW winch is ideal for deep water applications ranging from 1,500 ft. (457 m.) to 2,000 ft. (610 m.).
Overview
Designed as a cost-effective solution to a dedicated vehicle or skid-mounted system, the DW winch offers increased performance, additional cable capacity, and the ability to be permanently or semi-permanently mounted on a vehicle. The DW winch includes a level wind mechanism as standard, which will aid in cable management by neatly and evenly spreading cable across the reel.
While designed to be operated via controls on the winch, we now offer an optional controller that can be added to the DW winch to enable remote operation of the draw works.
The DW 1500 & 2000 winches are compatible for use with both the R-CAM and SC-166 cameras.
Eligible R-CAM customers may purchase the DW 1500 or 2000 winch only and use their existing control unit and R-CAM cameras. Please call for confirmation of your R-CAM’s compatibility.

What Customers Say
The camera is excellent and it makes a night and day difference in our business.
Gary Shawver

I used to borrow a friendly competitor’s camera. He had a small one with a hand reel and a tripod made of PVC. It worked for me at times, but the R-cam 1000 is heads and shoulders above that.

I hoped we would use our new R-CAM 1000 at least 1 time per month... but we're averaging closer to 10. Plus, I don't have to subcontract the work out to my competition anymore, and I'm picking up a bunch of additional well rehab work.

Frequently Asked Questions
The downhole facing SC-166 is suitable for boreholes up to 10 inches in diameter. The R-CAM dual view camera can view boreholes up to 16 inches in diameter. The DC5150 is suitable for borehole diameters up to 30 inches in diameter. Please note, visibility downhole will be impacted by the clarity of the fluid and the available light.
Every camera system will eventually require a repair to the cable head, the point at which the cable and camera physically connect. Over time, the internal connections within the cable head can be strained to the point where they disconnect and cause interference or a complete loss of the video signal. To expedite the repair process, we have cable head repair kits available for both portable systems and large vehicle-based systems.
Conducting surveys with the included centralizers and available lens shield accessory is the best way to ensure that the camera head remains protected downhole. When not in use, store the camera head in an area where it will be safe from unintentional drops or damage. If your camera system is damaged, we offer full repair services at our headquarters in Fresno, California.
