Thermographic Surveys
Scenario
A factory maintenance manager is under pressure to maximise production and cannot
afford additional shut down periods for reactive maintenance repair work. He is aware
of the electricity at work act and the responsibilities this puts on him to provide
a safe working environment for all persons in the workplace. A System breakdown would
interfere with the Production Manager's targets.
Solution
A thermographic inspection is a safe, non contact and non invasive way to satisfy
both the Maintenance and Production Managers. It is a perfect supplement to a Periodic
Inspection Report. The insurance company will also be pleased as a thermographic
inspection is the best predictive monitoring you can have. Loose or corroded connections,
overloads and hot spots can be identified well before the system breaks down or becomes
a serious fire hazard.
Records
A full report with the photographic images and data is compiled. This report can
then be compared with future scheduled inspections to spot any gradual deterioration.
Benefits
- Non contact inspection
- No shut down
- 3 phase balancing
- Excellent fire prevention measure
