Our training brings you into your plant to evaluate
your needs and capabilities, assist in developing routes and inspection frequencies, and
most importantly, ensure your staff has the knowledge to correctly acquire and intrepret
infrared inspection data
Our hands-on approach allows for a concentrated
effort on attendee's specific requirements. Our staff of experienced thermographers will
teach your technicians the "tricks of the trade" in using equipment to expedite
the process of acquiring appropriate data the first time. For many years, we have trained
technicians for automotive, petrochemical, paper and many other industries both in the
U.S.A. and abroad
We offer custom designed training and will gladly travel to your
facility to provide infrared or equipment specific training for which we have field
experience and in-depth knowledge.
We also
conduct Level I and II
classes on a regular basis. Our classes meet guidelines for Level I and II
Level 1
Our Level I
classes are designed to familiarize the student with the various uses and benefits that
can be attained by employing thermography in the following applications: electrical,
mechanical, flat roof, and building diagnostic inspections. Quality image documentation is
emphasized with a variety of hands-on demonstrations focusing on proper camera settings
and image interpretation. Differences in equipment and specific wave length limitations
are discussed to ensure that the student can provide meaningful reports for review by
management and/or customers.
Level 2
Our
Level II classes are intense and extensive programs focusing on improving the students'
equipment operational skills, image acquisition, interpretation, and report generation
abilities. Advanced infrared theory, heat transfer formulas, quantitative analysis and
in-depth hands-on applications are included.

Advantages of
thermography
- Quick problem detection without interrupting
service
- Prevention of premature
failure and extension of equipment life
- Identification of
potentially dangerous or hazardous equipment
- Reduction in insurance premiums
- Effective infrared scanning
in order to save revenue and prevent down-time
Overview
Electrical
To ensure the integrity of electrical installations for reduced down time, fire and
safety, or insurance company compliance, we highly reccomend to perform Thermal
inspections of electrical installations to find over heating in connections and
components, or faulty components.
Mechanical
Thermal Inspections of motors, pumps, fans, bearings, compressors, heating elements,
humidifiers etc. can be analyzed for faults and decrease in efficiency. Fatigue and stress
concentration in components can be detected and verified.
Buildings and Processing Equipment
Internal properties in walls and pipes such as building and cool room/oven insulation
and furnace refractory breakdown and efficiency, scale build up, fluid build up in
composite structures etc. can be determined.
Environmental and Surveillance
Thermography can be used to determine sites of burst gas and water pipes, hot spots in
bush fires, waste water spread, biological diversity and pest/fungus spread in
plantations, and it is widely used for night surveillance.
Medical
Thermography has been used for medical diagnosis on race horses and athletes to help
determine location of strains and fractures. It is also widely used in the medical area
for skin, burns and circulatory diagnosis and test of blood circulation in open heart
surgery
