Excessive heat is a leading cause of equipment failure. But too often, by the time heat issues are identified, it’s too late. That’s why Agilix Solutions offers thermography services. Using a special heat-sensing camera, we’re able to identify abnormal heat issues that would otherwise be difficult to detect.
After we perform a thermographic survey, our thermography experts deliver a complete report that details hot points in any system, provides info on ambient temperature and specific temperature, shows which phase of operation is producing excessive heat, and details possible causes.
Where Can Thermography be Used?
Many people think of thermography strictly as an electrical service. And while we do electrical inspections, there are a variety of applications for thermography services:
- Electrical
- Identify deteriorated connections
- Find three phase unbalance and overloads
- Pinpoint hot or cool anomalies in substations
- Motors
- Compare bearing and housing temperature against known acceptable thermal values
- Use exterior thermal casing gradient as an indicator of internal temperature
- Measure heat in gearboxes to identify lubrication issues
- Pipes – look for temperature anomalies to find leaks
- Ducts – identify blockages and leaks in ventilation systems
- Valves and Traps – Insure proper operation
- Tanks and Vessels – Check liquid and gas levels, and identify settling or blocking of tubes
- Roofs – Detect leakage and ensure proper seals
- Insulation Defects – Find gaps in wall and ceiling insulation in rooms or building envelopes
- Refrigerated Areas – Ensure proper seals
- Hydraulic Systems – Identify potential failure points through temperature anomalies
- IT/Computer Rooms – Identify additional cooling needs where hotspots exist
We recommend customers perform a thermography audit at least once a year, whether they are having heat-related issues or not. We offer more frequent services to help our customers prevent disaster and extend the life of their equipment.
Why Choose Agilix Solutions’ Thermography Services
There are three primary reasons to choose Agilix Solutions to perform your thermography audit:
