COURSE DURATION: 1 Day Training
Infrared thermography is one of the most valuable tools available for inspecting electrical systems. Too often, the use of the technology falls short of its potential full value. Why? A primary reason is our failure to understand the basic heat transfer science involved and, thus, misinterpret the thermal signature of a component possibly headed toward “Thermal Anomaly” failure.
Thermography, with its ability to locate small temperature differences, provides advance warning of impending failure and be used as an effective tool in identifying the locations of a suspect components.
