Thermal imaging
What is Thermal imaging?
Thermal imaging (or thermography) is the use of an infrared imaging and measurement camera to detect and measure the thermal energy emitted from an object. Thermal (or infrared energy) is light that is not visible to the naked eye and is part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we perceive as heat. Our infrared cameras produce interpretable images of invisible heat radiation and offer precise non-contact measurement capabilities. Nearly any piece of electrical equipment will get increasingly hot before it fails - a fact that makes thermal imaging with infrared cameras an extremely cost-effective and valuable diagnostic tool in electrical work, with a wide-ranging and a diverse number of applications.
What DO we use it for?
We use it on all Electrical Assets from Switchboards to Motors to show any excessive heats being generated
In Electrical system common faults are High resistance joins or an Overloaded component.
For Mechanical machinery it can show excessive friction due to lubrication issues or physical abnormalities and alot more.
It is used in our Predictive Maintenance Program in conjunction with our Vibration Analysis and Static Motor Analysis to provide a complete Picture of an Motors Mechanical and Electrical Health. Therefore used in conjunction with many years of experience we can accurately schedule important Maintenance.
