With recent COVID-related shutdowns of supply lines that have crippled companies, investing in reliability becomes a vital strategy for keeping systems and production lines running. Without parts, companies cannot manufacture products or repair machinery when it breaks….Source: IR/INFO.ORG

In general, hot spots within electrical systems are indicative of problems such as loose connections or overloaded circuits. For some electrical components, high temperature operation is normal and an infrared imager can be used to help ensure that these devices are functioning….Source: IR/INFO.ORG

Many facilities undergo regularly scheduled shutdowns for preventive maintenance. Performed prior to shutdowns, infrared inspections can help to point out potential problems in electrical and mechanical systems and allow for more effective use of resources during a shutdown.Source: IR/INFO.ORG

Proper conduct of an infrared inspection requires line of sight access to the object(s) being inspected. A first surface mirror can often be utilized to inspect components that may be obstructed or obscured.Source: IR/INFO.ORG…

Purchasing a pre-owned thermal imager can result in significant savings over the cost of a new unit. Prices for new thermal imagers can range from under $1000 to tens of thousands depending upon features and capabilities.Source: IR/INFO.ORG…
