Overview

The AspiROV is a water tank inspection and cleaning robot, developed by Subsea Tech, that requires no draining. Thanks to its unique modular design, combining a Guardian micro-ROV with a motorised suction skid, it performs both a complete visual inspection and tank floor cleaning in a single operation, whether the tanks hold drinking water, industrial water, demineralised water or firefighting water.

Deployed worldwide for more than a decade, the AspiROV is recognised as the benchmark solution for water network operators, industrial companies and their maintenance contractors. Weighing just 12 kg and operated by a single person, it is the most cost-effective tool on the market for water storage tank maintenance.
