Thermography: Operating Procedures & Implementation

About

Infrared thermography is a popular and cost-effective means for predicting system equipment failure. This course is one in a three-part series which will help you minimize downtime as it discusses the principles of thermography, the basic steps of conducting a condition-based infrared monitoring program, and the correct procedures for working with infrared imaging equipment.

In recent years, infrared thermography has become a leading predictive maintenance technology that helps provide critical information, boost productivity and reduce costs. By reviewing this course, employees will learn the basic steps for conducting a condition-based infrared monitoring program - from deciding what to expect to analyzing data and making recommendations. Topics include:

-Characteristics and capabilities of thermal imagers
-Qualitative thermal imagers
-Quantitative thermal imagers
-Steps for conducting a condition-based infrared monitoring program
-Decide what to inspect
