Thermographic imaging or hot spot testing is the process of using a special camera designed to look only for heat by way of infrared energy waves.
By detecting issues often invisible to the naked eye, thermal imaging has evolved into one of the most cost effective and valuable diagnostic tools for predictive maintenance.
We use state of the art equipment like thermal imaging cameras to inspect and test in a non invasive way.
Thermographic surveys are an efficient and effective way of testing the electrical installations of any business.
Thermal imaging cameras are used to determine the temperature of electrical components within an existing installation. When high temperatures are found this indicates a potential risk, which can then be investigated further.
This early warning system means that corrective action can be taken before the problem escalates. Incorrectly installed or damaged components generally output an excessive amount of heat.
The white colouring seen on thermal images identifies sections of the image that are extremely hot, thus showing that something isn't working correctly in the system.
Potential problems can often be found due to excess heat being released by the component, include:
Thermographic surveys are particularly useful in large, complex, round the clock installations where machines are never switched off.
As the installation’s power supply is unaffected, business operations are uninterrupted.
Our staff are friendly, reliable, experienced and efficient and will go the extra mile to work around you and your business keeping disruption to a minimum.;
