Infrared Thermography
Infrared thermography is the process of
acquisition and analysis of thermal
information from non-contact thermal imaging
devices.

Visual vs. Night Vision vs. Thermal Imaging
• Visual • Night vision • Thermal imaging
• Color absorption • Amplifies small • Detects heat energy
and reflection amounts of visible emitted by objects
• Requires some light • Requires absolutely
light • Requires some no light
light i.e. moonlight • Totally unaffected by
or LED light sources

Benefits of Thermography
• Reduce unscheduled power outages
• Detect problems quickly, without interrupting
service
• Assess priorities for corrective action
• Minimize preventive maintenance and
troubleshooting time
• Check for defective equipment while still under
manufacturer warranty
• Comply with insurance company requirements
