What is an Infrared Thermographic Inspection? 

If you didn’t already know, infrared thermal imaging/inspecting is utilized in a wide range of industries, including electrical, fluid systems monitoring, machine condition monitoring, building inspection, insulation breakdown, and gas leak detection. Infrared thermography, or Infrared thermographic inspections, quickly and effectively identifies problems before they can cause any serious damage.  

The infrared thermography inspections detect and display heat radiations from objects in the form of a picture. An infrared camera is used to identify the heat signature so that reports and repair recommendations can be created.  

 

Why is it Important? 

Conducting an inspection using thermal imaging can reveal several issues such as faulty terminal wires, disconnects, motor bearings, insulation, damaged jumper wires, and loose or over tightened wire connections. It can also detect undersized or broken wires, overcapacity fuses, overheating fuse clips, breaker issues, and unbalanced loads.  

One of the main benefits of Infrared Thermographic Inspections is that issues can be rectified before a breakdown occurs, preventing loss of production due to unplanned downtime, saving your company time and money, as well as protecting your employees from potential safety issues. 

Conducting an infrared thermographic inspection is far superior to a simple visual inspection. This is because infrared thermography notes heat build-up of any electrical element under stress and can be a prediction of imminent failure while it is still functional and appearing normal to the naked eye or any other test equipment.
