Thermal imaging is becoming more commonly used for all areas of maintenance. Thermal imaging is the process of using an infra-red camera that can look at an item of equipment and detect a potential problem by way of heat in the form of Infra Red energy waves. These waves are invisible to the naked eye and the camera can show variations of heat between associated items of equipment indicating potential failure or down time.
The survey will identify the temperature ranges that the plant is achieving and allow the Maintenance Engineer to check whether these items are working within the design parameters.
As the image is acquired without any down time the solution to the potential problem can be planned for the next shutdown period.
In electrical systems the imaging camera can identify:
• Bad connections
• Overloads
• Overheating equipment
• Phase imbalances
• High resistance joints
We can provide a comprehensive report to identify the problem areas and also solutions to any electrical anomalies.
