Infrared Thermography is
the most important and cost effective measure of any electrical
maintenance program. Research shows an average of 400% return on
investment for every dollar spent on infrared inspections. A skilled
thermographer who has thorough knowledge of electrical construction
can detect electrical failures long before any other testing method
reducing down time, saving equipment costs and increasing personnel
safety.
Infrared thermograpic cameras produce images of invisible
infrared or "heat" radiation and provide precise non-contact
temperature measurement capabilities. Nearly everything gets hot
before it fails, making infrared cameras extremely cost-effective,
valuable diagnostic tools in many diverse applications. Finding
and fixing a poor electrical connection or overload circuit before
a component fails can save you the much greater costs associated
with downtime, production losses, power outages, fires and catastrophic
failures.
