What is Thermography?
All objects above absolute zero (-273C) emit infrared
energy.
Thermal Imaging Cameras are able to visualize this energyand calibrate it so that surface temperatures can bemeasured and changes in surface temperature can beobserved.
Experienced Thermographers with high resolutionequipment are able to observe, capture and analyze thesechanges and are then able to identify and report defects or
anomalies before breakdown or further damage occurs.

What is Thermography?
Nearly everything heats up before it breaks down
A loose electrical connection.A bearing in a motor.
Your temperature rises if you are ill.

Common Misconceptions & The Need to Train
Things we hear regularly:
You can see through panelsIt doesnt have to be done liveWe cant get our camera to do that
08:00 I dont see the point in this12:00 I wish we had done this earlier!
The Same..But Different

How Everyday Thermography Affects The Bottom Line
Cost Avoidance:
Electrical Burnouts & Capital Replacement CostsOnly Insulate / Protect Localised AreasSpeed up Fault Finding
Late Arrival / Departure
Lower Insurance Premiums
Additional Benefits.
