Benefits of IR InspectionPrior to new Plant/System startup we can locate potential problems and help with system shakedown.Lowered Equipment replacement cost due to effective use of manpower.Increased equipment life.Allows for setting maintenance priorities.Inspection can evaluate the quality of repair work.Overall improved maintenance program will result from all the above.

Outward Appearance Of Pumps And Motors Shows No Sign Of Increased Heat Or Future BreakdownJust looking at a coupling gives no outward sign of failure. And measuring with a point and shoot radiometer only gives a rough estimate of the temperature of the
coupling.

Why Should I Use Thermal Imaging In My Facility?
Most component breakdowns in the manufacturing process are usually proceeded by increases in in heat.

Indoor Comfort
Knowing where that draft is coming from is important. You may know that it is coming from the weather seal around a door. But even in new installations air infiltrations often come from around the frame of the door or window. It is important to remember that heat seeks cold. Ensuring proper installation is vital to the buildings indoor environment.

Building Envelope Inspection With IR
Insuring a comfortable controlled environment to work in is critical in today’s workplace. Besides the obvious benefits there is a growing concern regarding the efficient use of resources.Many companies have substantial investments in physical properties. Along with a continuing expenditure on energy.Inspection with infrared can identify roof leak locations, missing insulation, and air infiltration.

Roofing Inspection
Inspection of roofing with thermal imaging is a very cost effective way to extend the life of the roof.
Wet areas can be identified and marked allowing surgical removal and replacement by your contractor.

Low Slope Roofing Inspection
WET AREAS ARE MARKED WITH PAINT TO ENSURE EASY REMOVAL OF WET AREA.
ROOF IN INFRARED, BRIGHT COLORS INDICATE WARM AREAS. THESE ARE THEN VERIFIED WITH A MOISTURE METER AND MARKED WITH PAINT.

IR Electrical InspectionSome Uses of IR in Electrical Inspection Preventative / Predictive Maintenance Condition Assessment & Monitoring Quality Assurance Forensics
We can detect the following conditions: Loose or deteriorated connections Overloads Unbalanced loads Open Circuits Harmonics Defective Equipment
We require that the system be under load and a clear line of sight. You may need to have an electrician remove covers. If you don’t have one we can provide one.

Inspection Of Critical SystemsImagine what could happen if this breaker were part of the distribution system to
an ICU wing. Now imagine if it failed. Our Level II Certified inspector can give you the knowledge you need to anticipate component failure.

IR Used For Plumbing Inspection
Water leaks under fixtures can become very large headaches when the underlying structure is damaged. The picture to the right was a new installation and showed no outward signs of a leak. With the infrared the leak was detected and repaired before damage could occur.
![Page 13: Infrared inspection power point](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55839e72d8b42a08148b4f22/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Below Slab Plumbing Leak Detection
Water leaks under foundations built on grade can be especially difficult to locate. With infrared thermography leaks can be located and repairs mad with minimal cost compared to re-piping the entire structure.In most every case infrared inspection has proven itself to be the most cost effective way to diagnose potential problems.

Steam piping Leak DetectionInfrared imaging can be used to pinpoint steam line leaks under streets. Knowing
where the leak is can help avoid unnecessary excavation and street closings.

Process heater Inspection With Infrared
Process heaters can be checked with infrared while in operation to find leaks and or blocked tubing (notice the temperature is around 1000 degrees Fahrenheit).

Knowing that a component is going to fail is a given. Knowing that it
could be soon could be very valuable.

Seeing Into The FutureInfrared has the ability to keep your operation running and has proven itself to the efficient way to help you anticipate breakdown.If you had a crystal ball that could see into the future you would use it and there would never be a breakdown at you facility. Inspection with infrared can be your crystal ball.You need only to use it.

How Does Inspecting With IR Improve Employee Morale?
Employee morale is discussed quite a bit these days. Improvements in morale result in units of increased production. A successful predictive
maintenance program creates a work atmosphere in which activities can be planned from day to day. This results in morale improvements for
maintenance, production and administrative personnel.
