There are many advantages to having an infrared inspection
program for electrical and process equipment. Often times, mission critical
processes are controlled by electrical equipment and motors whose failure
could cost thousands of dollars per day. Periodic infrared inspection
of this equipment can assure reliability and cost effective maintenance.
Thermography can reveal problems in electrical equipment before it causes
a dangerous condition or failure and has been proven to reduce maintenance
costs through more efficient upkeep and reduced spare parts inventory.
We provide infrared imaging of electrical panels and equipment for a variety
of retail, commercial, and industrial facilities who need this technology
but cannot justify their own camera due to the cost of ownership and training
in use of the camera. Infrared thermography is a field which requires
specialized knowledge and experience to avoid confusing normal and fault
conditions. Improper interpretation of results can actually lead to increased
costs by replacing or repairing equipment that is performing normally.
We use Level II certified thermographers who are trained in NEC and NFPA
regulations on all electrical inspections to assure our clients of an
accurate and quality inspection. Call for a quote on electrical thermography
for your facility. |
