Electrical and Mechanical Scans

30% of All Fire Loss is Traceable to Electrical Failure!
Nearly everything gets hot before it fails.

Infrared thermography allows for rapid identification of electrical problems before they fail, saving hundreds if not thousands of dollars in unscheduled repairs. Since electrical components typically give indications of impending failure (in the form of increased heat) a proper routine inspection can minimize the potential effects of electrical failures.

Most commercial insurance companies provide discounts for property managers who conduct regular thermography scans of their buildings. What could be a horrific issue is easy to fix when you know it's there!

Thermal imaging is the only non-intrusive safe way to inspect for issues in both your electrical components and your mechancial equipment that you can't see with the naked eye.Thermographic inspections can detect loose or corroded connections, overloaded or unbalanced circuits, and can show where corrective action should be focused. It simply doesn't make financial sense to ignore the facts.

However, infrared inspections can save you money in other ways. And in today's economy, who doesn't want to cut costs?

* Reduced inventory of maintenance parts
* Labor cost savings by avoiding serious equipment failures (downtime for labor personnel while equipment is non-functional)
* Energy savings by sealing building leaks
* Savings from decreased downtime through increased output
* Reduced waste and scrap parts by improving equipment operation
* Safer working conditions (reduced injuries to maintenance and operating personnel)

Baseline Infrared Imagery

Although scheduling electrical infrared surveys can determine if there are existing issues with any electrical or mechanical equipment in your building, we suggest a baseline scan for all new equipment as well.

A baseline scan provides baseline data for comparision for subsequent infrared scans. It makes it easier and quicker to troubleshoot potential issues and helps spot problems before they become catastrophic. With baseline scan records, trend analysis of motors and bearings can provide an early warning of impending problems. Your company invests a substantial amount of money into equipment.

To get the best return on that investment, it makes sense to keep that equipment at its peak efficiency - and to have the peace of mind to know it is operating that way from the point of installation. Doesn't it make sense to have a baseline scan done of any new equipment?
