Example of Inspection : Infrared Thermography
FeaturesDetecting local wastage effectively without any preparation
- This enables inspection Separately, and Quickly.
- The results are represented in 2D.
- This method can be used for Operating Equipments.
AdvantagesBasically, additional work is unnecessary so it can be used for Operating Equipments.
- Significant Cost Savings because of no additional works.
- Less Oversight because of 2D-indicated results.
- You can note the important areas where the maintenance required at regular checks because this can be used for operating equipments.
Application 1Poorly fitting contacts or connections on control panels
- Loose connection at terminal
Poorly fitting contacts
- Identify the cause for excessive heating from thermal gradient
Application 2Abnormality in motor bearing
- Motor A
- Temperature A > B due to something abnormal in motor A
- Motor B
Application 3Valve Seat Leaks / Lagging Abrasion
- Valve seat leaks
- The temperature of downstream area in pipes becomes different from other areas because of valve seat leaks.
- Lagging abrasion
- Applied for the examlnation for energy loss.
Application 4Detecting the Pipe Occlusion
- Thermogram of pipe occlusion
- Detecting the position of occlusion from temperature distribution in pipes.
