In electrical installations, loose and oxidised connections, unbalanced phase loads and overheating switchgear carry fire and downtime risks. On the mechanical side, bearing, coupling and belt temperatures can signal developing faults.
In our thermography reports every finding includes a visible/thermal image pair, measured and reference temperatures and a priority class.
Benefits
Non-contact and safe
Measured under load without stopping the system.
Lower fire risk
Electrical hot spots are detected early.
Fast survey
Large areas covered in a short time.
Visual evidence
Findings documented with images.
Process
Scope
Panels, motors, mechanical components and priorities.
Survey
Thermal and visible imaging under load.
Analysis
Temperature differences and priority classification.
Report
Images and recommendations per finding.

Frequently asked questions
Does the system need to run during thermography?
Yes. Hot spots only appear under current and mechanical load, so the survey must be done while equipment runs at normal load.
